Help from the Far East: the mixture of relaxation and movement exercises in Tai Chi can improve lung function

Less depressed thanks to Tai Chi

The flowing movements help against stiffness because the knee extensor is strengthened. They also have an effect on the psyche, making you feel less depressed.

Mixture of relaxation and movement exercises

The typical shortness of breath (dyspnoea) also decreases. You also feel physically fitter and more balanced overall. So don't be surprised if your doctor soon prescribes a mixture of relaxation and movement exercises.
