-
Physiological Effects of Respiration Method of Inner Qigong (Machi and Liu, Japan):
- Qigong's effectiveness in health maintenance and disease treatment is explored scientifically.
- Focus on "Three Adjustments" (Posture, Respiration, Mental Activities), specifically respiration.
- Standing Posture Qigong: Significant increase in respiration rate and abdominal vibration, increased CO2 density (6% vs. 4%), and influence on R-point electric potential in cardiogram. Increased sympathetic nerve activity (LF/HF ratio 10x higher than in common persons). Increased blood flow through neck artery and glabella, decreased blood oxygen density (increased oxygen consumption).
- Six-Word-Practice: Increased heartbeats and blood flow compared to Standing Posture Qigong, particularly with sounds like "Hu" and "Chui". Maximum blood pressure exceeding 160 mmHg, but shorter duration. Decreased blood oxygen density, particularly during "Chui" and "Xi". Synchronization of respiration and blood oxygen density cycles.
- Nei-Yang Gong: Two respiration methods: soft (inhaling-exhaling-stopping) and hard (inhaling-stopping-exhaling). Soft respiration may decrease blood pressure, while hard respiration increases it. Hard respiration shows significant inner body temperature increase. Effects on hypertension and hypotension management.
-
The Effect of the External Qi of Qi-Gong on the Heartbeat of the Toad (Deying Chu, Peking University):
- External Qi of Qigong (EQQ) demonstrated two-way regulation of toad heartbeat intensity and rhythm. Restored normal rhythm and revived near-death hearts.

Physiological Effects of Respiration Method of Inner Qigong: Research by Machi and Liu (Japan) explored the physiological effects of Qigong's "Three Adjustments" (posture, respiration, mental activity), focusing on respiration.
-
Standing Posture Qigong:
- Increased respiration rate and abdominal vibration.
- Elevated carbon dioxide density in nasal respiration indicating increased inner body activity.
- Influenced R-point electric potential on cardiogram, synchronized with abdominal respiration.
- Increased sympathetic nerve activity (LF/HF ratio 10x higher than in common persons).
- Increased blood flow through neck artery and glabella, potentially preventing brain aging.
- Decreased blood oxygen density indicating increased oxygen consumption.
-
Six-Word-Practice:
- Increased heartbeats when making sounds.
- Increased blood flow through the neck artery, not directly proportional to sound intensity.
- Maximum blood pressure exceeding 160 mmHg, though shorter duration than in Standing Posture Qigong.
- Decreasing oxygen density in end blood vessels during "Chui" and "Xi", showing high short-term exertion.
- Synchronization between respiration and oxygen density cycles reflective of practice coordination.
-
Nei-Yang Gong:
- Two respiration methods: soft (inhaling-exhaling-stopping) and hard (inhaling-stopping-exhaling).
- Soft respiration potentially decreases blood pressure through delayed inhalation.
- Hard respiration increases blood pressure depending on stopping respiration location.
- Hard respiration shows higher inner body temperature increase and sympathetic nerve activity (LF/HF) than soft respiration.

Research Updates from the Fifth World Medical Qigong Symposium (Beijing, June 26-28, 2006)
- Physiological Effects of Respiration Method of Inner Qigong: Research by MACHI and Liu (Japan) exploring the effects of Qigong's "Three Adjustments" (posture, respiration, mental activities) on physiology. Findings include increased respiration rate, abdominal pressure, carbon dioxide density, and sympathetic nerve activity during practice; increased blood flow in neck artery and glabella, but decreased blood oxygen density (indicating increased oxygen consumption).
- Standing Posture Qigong: Study shows significant changes in brainwaves, and autonomic nervous system activity.
- Six-Word-Practice: This Qigong method, involving vocalization, increased heartbeat and blood flow to the neck artery. Maximum blood pressure is higher than in Standing Posture Qigong, but the duration of the increase is shorter.
- The Effect of the External Qi of Qi-Gong on the Heartbeat of the Toad: Deying Chu (Peking University) investigated the effects of External Qi Qigong (EQQ) on toad hearts, finding it strengthens or weakens heartbeat intensity and rhythm, and can even revive failing hearts.
- The Effect of Baduanjin to the Function of Human Cardio-Vascular: Li Yuhuan, Li Dongjun, Zhang Haibo, and Hou Beichen (Institute of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine) monitored six physical indicators in college students practicing Baduanjin.

Research Updates from the Fifth World Medical Qigong Symposium (Beijing, June 26-28, 2006)
Physiological Effects of Respiration Methods of Inner Qigong (MACHI and Liu, Japan)
- Studied the effects of Standing Posture Qigong and Six-Word-Practice on the autonomic nervous system and blood flow.
- Standing Posture Qigong increased sympathetic nerve activity and blood flow to the brain, potentially preventing brain aging. Oxygen density in the blood decreased, indicating increased oxygen consumption.
- Six-Word-Practice, involving vocalization, increased heart rate and blood flow compared to Standing Posture Qigong. Blood pressure increased but for a shorter duration. Oxygen density in the blood of end blood vessels decreased during the practice of "Chui" and "Xi".
- Nei-Yang Gong, with soft and hard respiration methods, showed potential for blood pressure regulation. Soft respiration delayed blood pressure increases, while hard respiration increased it. Inner body temperature increased significantly with hard respiration.
The Effect of the External Qi of Qi-Gong on the Heartbeat of the Toad (Deying Chu, Peking University)
- Investigated the effects of External Qi of Qigong (EQQ) on isolated toad hearts.
- 12 Qigong masters and 6 volunteers participated.
- EQQ demonstrated effects on heartbeat intensity and rhythm, including restoring normal rhythm and reviving hearts on the verge of death.
