The self-treatment will mobilise the stiff and often immobile thoracic spine and lower back, alleviate headaches, aches and pains and ultimately improve performance. The process involved postural assessment in 3 planes (saggital, frontal and transverse) and techniques (3 ilterations) of treatment; these may involve some corrective exercises and soft tissue work.

The rack can be purchased and is specifically designed to achieve mobility (Refer to http://taichihealthfitness.blogspot.com/ for the full descriptions and purchases).

■ It allows you to stretch the anterior muscles of the chest and shoulders that are deemed short and often inflexible due to poor posture.

■ It mobilises the thoracic spine, increasing your ability to extend and rotate through this important area.

■ Mobilising the thoracic region helps increase the available movement in the shoulder and pelvic region, allowing us to move more freely and efficiently.

■ Serves as treatment equipment and later as fitness equipment during the maintenance phasse. Enhance quality of life over life cycle

Many good results and testimontials have been received from Sedentary adults, Yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi practioners / instructors, cyclists, runners, swimmers, golfers, tennis players, badminton players, dancers, scoliosis clients, clients with low back pain / hand numbness / nerves impingement etc.

八段锦 (Ba Duan Jing)

 

八段锦是由八节动作组成的一种健身运动方法。全套动作精炼,运动量适度,其每节动作的设计,都针对一定的脏腑或病症的保健与治疗需要,有疏通经络气血、调整脏腑功能的作用。其名最早见于宋代洪迈《夷坚志》中。曾《道枢·众妙篇》曾记述了具体练习方法:“仰掌上举以治三焦者也,左肝右肺如射雕焉;东西独托所以安其脾胃矣;返复而顾所以理其伤劳矣;大小朝天所以通其五藏矣;咽津补气,左右挑其手,摆鳝之尾所以祛心之疾矣;左右手以攀其足所以治其腰矣。”《灵剑子引导子午记》也记有:“仰托一度理三焦,左肝右肺如射雕,东脾单托西通胃,五劳回顾七伤调,游鱼摆尾通心脏,手攀双足理于腰,次鸣天鼓三十六,两手掩耳后头敲。”八段锦在历代相传中得到不断发展,流派繁多,现代较为流行的练习方法和歌诀见于清代梁世昌《易筋经图说》所附《八段锦》(撰者不详)中。


  【基本内容和方法】

  (一)“两手托天理三焦”法

  直立,两足分开,与肩同宽。两臂自然松垂身侧,然后徐徐自左右侧方上举至头顶,两手手指相叉,翻掌,掌心朝上如托天状,同时顺势踮两脚跟,再将两臂放下复原,同时两脚跟轻轻着地。如此反复多遍。若配合呼吸,则上托时深吸气,复原时深呼气。

  (二)“左右开弓似射雕”法
 
  直立,左足跨出一大步,身体下蹲作骑马式。两臂在胸前交叉,右臂在外,左臂在内,眼看左手,然后左手握拳,食指翘起向上,拇指伸直与食指成八字撑开。接着左臂向左推出并伸直,头随而左转,眼看左手食指,同时右手握拳,展臂向右平拉作拉弓状。动作复原后左右互换,反复进行数次。如配合呼吸,则展臂及拉弓时吸气,复原时呼气。

  (三)“调理脾胃须单举”法

  直立,两足分开,与肩同宽。右手翻掌上举,五指并紧,掌心向上,指尖向右,同时左手下按,掌心向下,指尖向前。动作复原后,两手交替反复进行,反复多遍,如配合呼吸,则上举下按时吸气,复原时呼气。

  (四)“五劳七伤向后瞧”法

  直立,两足分开,与肩同宽。两手掌心紧贴腿旁,然后头慢慢左顾右盼向后观望。如配合呼吸,则向后望时吸气,复原时呼气。

  (五)摇头摆尾去心火

  两足分开,相距约三个足底的长度,屈膝半蹲成骑马势。两手张开,虎口向内,扶住大腿前部。头部及上体前俯,然后作圆环形转摇,转动数圈后再反方向转摇。在转腰的同时,适当摆动臀部。如配合呼吸,则在转腰时吸气,复原时呼气。

  (六)“两手攀足固肾腰”法

  直立,并足,两膝挺伸、上身前俯,以两手攀握两足趾(如碰不到,不必勉强),头略昂起。然后恢复直立姿势,同时两手握拳,并抵于腰椎两侧,上身缓缓后仰,再恢复直立姿势。反复进行。本式采用自然呼吸。

  (七)“攒拳怒目增气力”法

  两腿分开屈膝成骑马势,两手握拳放在腰旁,拳心向上。右拳向前方缓缓击出,右臂伸直,拳心向下,两眼睁大,向前虎视。然后收回左拳,如法击出右拳,左右交替进行。如配合呼吸,则击拳时呼气,收拳时吸气。

  (八)“背后七颠百病消”法

  直立,并足,两掌紧贴腿侧,两膝伸直,足跟并拢提起,离地数寸,同时昂首,作全身提举势。然后足跟轻轻着地复原。反复进行。如配合呼吸,则足跟提起时吸气,足跟着地时呼气。

  【自我保健应用】

  “两手托天理三焦”法可吐故纳新,调理脏腑功能,消除疲劳,滑利关节(尤其是对上肢和腰背)。“左右开弓似射雕”法通过扩胸伸臂可以增强胸肋部和肩臂部肌力,加强呼吸和血液循环,有助于进一步纠正姿势不正确所造成的病态。

  “调理脾胃须单举”法有助于防治胃肠病。

  “五劳七伤向后瞧”法可消除疲劳,健脑安神,调整脏腑功能,防治颈肩酸痛。

  “两手攀足固肾腰”法可增强腰部及下腹部的力量,但高血压病和动脉硬化患者,头部不宜垂得太低。

  “攒拳怒目增气力”法可激发经气,加强血运,增强肌力。

  “背后七颠百病消”法可疏通背部经脉,调整脏腑功能。长期坚持练习八段锦可增强体质,防止疾病。

Incorporating all the health and fitness components (Oct '08 articles) into exercise programs may not be easy for busy working adults, executives, businessmen and women when time is hard to optmise. The amount of time spend on exercises whether it is physical preparation and conditioning or routine practices must be effective and meeting the health and fitness requirements.

This requires a proper exercise prescriptions (daily and weekly) for individuals and appropriate circuit design (including bad weather) using existing natural environment (depending on individual preferences, preferably mixture of indoor and outdoor) around us to keep us healthy and fit. Time must be well-spend.

For example: some of my clients are doing warming up and stretching at home, their Taichi aerobic activties are done using the outdoor circuit and cooling down with Taichi routines followed by stretching near thereby their house. The re-hydration with fuild is done at home during rest followed by his bath. They have multiple version of programs (changing the variables of the components and types) for variety.
