Gentle GongFa Exercise on Chair for Improved Circulation

“GongFa” simply means the method of doing exercise with a special long-term purpose.

Dry foot gangrene, as a part of diabetes management, has become a major medical problem. This website is intended to allow you to manage your own care, ask the right questions, insist on adequate management and information, and seek an optimal outcome for yourself as an informed patient. Perhaps it will even help the health professionals who are giving care to better understand and, hopefully, incorporate into their practice the nutritional approach to gangrene - its prevention and treatment.

Please note that this website is not intended for “most people”. It is written for those who want to stand out in self-health care. If you are such a person, we strongly advise that you give serious thought to all of the suggestions about how to stop the progression of gangrene, dry foot gangrene in particular. If you are tempted to think the suggestions are too complicated or too simplistic, or biased, we assure you they are not.

The vital importance of physical activity in improving circulation cannot be emphasized enough. For this reason, we have added GongFa - a complete body-mind workout system - to our foot gangrene control program.

Qigong, on the other hand, is a Chinese exercise system that focuses more on the development of internal attributes (e.g. energy) through the series of movements accompanied by deep breathing.

When practiced daily, GongFa offers you substantial benefits.

It helps you enhance:

• body-mind harmony
• coordination between breathing and movements.

It helps you improve:

• micro-circulation systems in the entire body
• flexibility around the upper body
• joint health
• cardio-respiratory system function
• muscle tones
• serenity, emotion, and attitude
• internal energy level
• posture.

It helps you reduce:

• back pain
• daily stress and hypertension.

And above all, you can be up and running in NO time!

Although everybody can benefit from this 23 to 28-minute gentle, safe, and effective daily workout, GongFa is especially important for those who

• have lower extremity disabilities
• maintain sedentary lifestyle – both at home and work
• are computer workers – to reduce tension in their arms, necks and shoulders, prevent and reduce the risk of computer-related repetitive stress injuries, and improve breathing rates and circulation
• are physically weak
• rely on walker, wheelchair, or
• spend most time in bed.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are very weak, your can divide GongFa exercise into two or three parts.

The best time to practice GongFa in the morning. By doing so, you will prepare yourself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually for your daily activity.

When you practice, please remember to use deep abdominal breathing as much as you can.

The reasons for practicing GongFa are numerous. Once again:

• Maximum cardiovascular benefits in minimum time
• Extremely simple and viewer-friendly, fully mirror-imaged demonstration
• No relying on external equipment
• Enjoyable and easy to do exercise routines, so they can be maintained as a life-long exercise style
• No learning curves involved - you can start right at the first time you view the DVD and benefit immediately
• Fully integrated breathing cues are provided, so your don’t get lost or confused.
• No big space required - only 16 ft (4 ft x 4 ft) in front of your TV or computer is enough.

GongFa was designed by David Chen, Ph.D. (Exercise Science) with over 20 years of experience in both Eastern and Western exercise and fitness.

Thousands of people from all walks of life have benefited from Dr. Chan’s GongFa routines.

Presently, there are three levels of GongFa exercise available on DVD.

Need a meaningful gift for yourself, your spouse, your parents or friends?

It helps you really care about your well-being, or about the health of someone you love or hold dear, especially someone in wheelchair or with limited physical activity - for instance with a diabetic foot.
