Tai Chi helps combat heart disease

Tai Chi can be an unconventional form of cardiac rehabilitation, being a therapy that can greatly help in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease.

Tai Chi is a low-intensity aerobic activity. People who practice Tai Chi primarily develop body-mind interaction, breathing and movement control, resulting in a state of mental peace.

Studies have been conducted on patients with acute myocardial infarction who practiced Tai Chi (under supervision), compared with conventional gymnastics.
