Aged Care: Chi Pain Management
I had another two good Chair Chi sessions for residents at aged care centres yesterday.
In the first session one resident commented on her back pain and during the session we did a Chi exercise that helped reduce the pain. And in the second session another resident complained of shoulder pain and we did the same Chi exercise which also helped reduce the pain.
