I’ve been working with acupunture in Brazil for many years, and since last year I’ve started to learn more about Lian Gong Shi Ba Fa and other practices I was wondering if I could also be helpful in different ways. Recently I’ve received a proposal from a well known university teacher to develop a scientific study with elders and I Qi Gong. The aim of our study is to evaluate significant changes in muscle strenght and chest expansion on respiratory system due I Qi Gong daily exercises and afterwords apply the same sequence of exercises in patients with bronchiectasis and analyse any improviments they might have in their condition.
Since I’m not a qi gong master but only a humble learner could you please help me?
I’m already grateful for your thoughts and ideas.
Have indeed a peaceful day.

Kind Regards,

J
