Testmonies about Dr.

Jerry Alan Johnson new


Chinese Medical Qigong Therapy Book Series:
As always in life, who we turn to when we want to learn something can have a crucial influence
on the outcome. Professor Jerry Alan Johnson is an outstanding teacher and practitioner of
Medical Qigong. He combines a most thorough grounding in the tradition (having studied and
practiced extensively in China) with the more Western skills of clear and methodical explanation.
Added to this, his great passion for the subject and his ability to work with intense dedication has
enabled him to produce what can only be called a masterwork. Nothing else published in English
begins to compare with Chinese Medical Qigong Therapy textbook series.

----------------------------------There are a number of excellent books on various aspects and methods of Qigong. However,
there has not been, in English, a comprehensive exploration of Medical Qigong. Dr. Johnson has
created a breakthrough work on Medical Qigong, which is a clear and useful revelation of the
Medical Qigong curriculum at the Hai Dian University Medical Qigong College of Beijing, China,
and an excellent synthesis of Medical Qigong theory from throughout China. This textbook series
will very likely remain the definitive compendium of Medical Qigong in the West for many years,
and become the foundation from which the field of Medical Qigong will evolve in Western
society.

Health, The Healing Promise of Qi
--------------------------------This massive compendium on Medical Qigong therapy is a veritable encyclopedia on the subject.
Dr. Jerry Alan Johnson's textbooks, well recognized and greatly revered, are in many ways the
professional standard. Unlike many Traditional Chinese Medicine works, they also include
numerous selections on the mind and emotional states, as well as on spiritual aspects of the
practice, such as the soul and spirit, the stars, magical diagrams, and the Yi Jing. They are a
valuable resource on Medical Qigong therapy and practice, and contain information on numerous
issues and problems. The scope is admirable, the execution with its many illustrations highly
recommendable. These volumes are a treasure trove and serve well as a reference work for
students and practitioners.

---------------------------------------------------

Today, I salute the publication of a magnus opus, with an exhaustive description of Chinese
Medical Qigong Therapy. These five volumes are a statement of the energetic treatments and
clinical protocols which have found great hope in both curative and palliative Qigong. One would
have expected such publications from Chinese experts, and yet to this day, no work of such
amplitude has ever come forth, neither in China nor in the West.
Professor Jerry Alan Johnson's merit is to have brought forth the most complete traditional and
particularly Daoist methods of Medical Qigong Therapy. This largely surpasses the structure of
the simple outline of gymnastic health exercises, fully expanding toward the fields of physiology,
psychology, and spirituality. In addition, all of the therapeutic aspects of Medical Qigong are also
evoked with respect to the particular needs of the practitioners of this discipline. We can add that
the theoretical aspects of these works go largely beyond the simple framework of Traditional
Chinese Medicine, reaching the esoteric, metaphysical and spiritual roots of this art.
