Why is it said that qigong is not recognized by the scientific community? Is qigong a pseudoscience?

Qigong is generally categorized as soft qigong and hard qigong. Hard qigong, however, is nothing more than a method of physical training, whereby repeated training of a certain part of the human body can lead to a strengthening effect. This is scientifically explained. The so-called soft qigong, on the other hand, is something that does not exist at all. What we usually call the kind of gong method that has a "sense of qi" and flows some kind of mysterious energy in the limbs and bones is soft qigong.

Qigong originated in China and has a very ancient history. However, the word qigong was first used in the Jin Dynasty by Xu Xun in his book Ling Jian Zi! About qigong, history records a lot of content, at that time for qigong also has a lot of say, in the practice of qigong the most basic is to sit in meditation, after that began to exhale, na qi, walking qi, luck, step qi and so on a variety of methods to cultivate. In the beginning, Chinese qigong was used for health care on the basis of traditional Chinese medicine!

At that time, qigong was mostly called "dance". In a Chinese classic, it was said that if a person's muscles and bones could not be stretched out and could not reach where they should be, then they could be channeled through the "dance," and this "dance" referred to qigong. During the Spring and Autumn period, the term qigong did not exist, but it was widely used, seeing that qigong is not just a name, but also has a wide range of applications.

Qigong practice is not much, we are the most common qigong is in some of the street performances, what the chest broken boulder or belly top gun tip. These are the hard qigong of qigong, but these uses are not common in our lives. In addition, there are many kinds of qigong, so it is divided into many sects, and the difference between the sects is very big. So qigong doesn't have too great an impact on people, then many people would certainly choose to practice Tai Chi.

We all know that qigong is about a stream of qi that is free in the body. And this qi is invisible, so how to seek evidence? Science is all about evidence, so it's understandable that scientists don't recognize qigong as such a nebulous thing. In fact, there are a lot of things in this world that we can't explain with science, such as: Zhou Yi, feng shui, acupoints, etc. These are not explained by science.

Qigong is real for human society,but because it is more niche and training is very troublesome, so it is not recognized by the scientific community, everyone in the usual exercise of the body can also choose to tai chi, as long as the body has the benefits of the movement, you can try.
