Abstract: Tai chi and qigong are both forms of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). They have been used for centuries to treat a wide range of ailments and diseases, mostly in China and a few other Asian countries. They incorporate meditation, movement and breathing in a way that strengthens the body’s immune system. In recent years, tai chi and qigong have become more popular in the West and have been increasingly used to treat many health problems. The present paper reviews some medical studies that have used these techniques to treat breast cancer survivors.
