Health Recovery Programs

These specialized programs for people with chronic illnesses or those recovering from injuries have proven very effective as complementary therapy in aiding and speeding recovery. Movements can be adapted for people with reduced mobility.

Many conditions have shown to improve with the regular practice of the set of exercises, including conditions such as poor circulation, high blood pressure, arthritis, back pain, joint immobility, respiratory problems, digestive disorders, Parkinson’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Fibromyalgia.

We offer week, weekend and day programs at various locations. These programs are open to the general public.

Health Recovery Classes worldwide

Most students can practice the Taoist Tai Chi™ arts in our regular classes and programs regardless of disabilities, health problems or ailments. However, we also offer Health Recovery classes at many of our locations all over the world. In these classes, people who are unable to follow along in the regular classes have the opportunity to work at their own pace. Movements in these classes may be adapted according to the specific needs of students, including those who have difficulty walking or standing. Contact a class location in your area to learn more about Health Recovery classes.
