How is Tai Chi a Fibromyalgia Natural Remedy?
A great benefit of practicing Tai Chi for fibromyalgia patients is to foster a calm and tranquil mind, focusing on the precise execution of sequenced movements. Learning to do the movements correctly provides a practical avenue for learning about such things as balance, alignment, fine-scale motor control, rhythm of movement, the genesis of movement from the body’s vital center, and so on. Thus the practice allows the patient to stand, walk, move, and run in a controlled pain-free manner. Many patients practicing tai chi notice benefits in terms of correcting poor postural alignment, or movement patterns which can help with the pain and tension associated with FMS. Furthermore, the meditative nature of the exercise is calming and relaxing in itself.
