Qi Gong
“It is of ultimate importance
to do what we can
to keep the body in good health;
Otherwise we shall not be able to keep
the mind strong and clear.”

Qi Gong …helps
the body to regain its equilibrium and heal itself.
A Simple Definition
Qi (pronounced chee) means energy. Gong means practice. Qi Gong is an
ancient Chinese healing art that uses mind, proper breathing techniques,
and body movements, which help to build, circulate, and unblock stuck
energy in the body.
There are two areas of Qi Gong practice. One is
internal Qi Gong, in which exercises are learned and practiced
for oneself. The other, is medical Qi Gong. This is what is being offered.
As a Qi Gong therapist, located in Penfield, NY (near Rochester),
Padme directs the universal healing energy to pass through her body
into another’s. There is
a clear, loving intention for the energy to be healing for the other
person. Specific internal Qi Gong exercises are also suggested.
A Typical Session
The client generally lies down on a massage table,
fully clothed, often with music to facilitate relaxation. The practitioner
senses the disturbances in the energy flow and works on releasing
the blocks. This sensing is done with the palm and for me, voice and
imagery. There is a clear intention that the healing come through the
heart and that it be for the person’s
highest good. On occasion, harmonic toning is used to facilitate
healing. Most table sessions last from 20-40 minutes. The entire session
is an hour, including shared talking time.
We are now integrating a new technique called Blinking, when appropriate.
Blinking
Blinking is something new I am utilizing in my practice. When we sleep, our eyes go into REM (rapid eye movement). That’s when the brain “computer” is inputting the new experiences from our day. It’s as if we load a CD into our brain and download a new program every night. We experience our life during the day (recording the CD), and at night when we are sleeping, the brain downloads all our new experiences into our body/mind system.
We can mimic the nighttime REM downloading, by consciously blinking rapidly, moving our eyes in a particular pattern, and introducing healing words like, “Let it go, let it go.” The brain responds by taking it all in as fresh, new, important, information. There’s a bit more to it, of course, but that’s basically how it works. When a person is truly ready to let go of past experiences and issues that are blocking their growth and healing, we can do what I call Blinking.
Adding my experience with Qi Gong and spiritual guidance, we have been able to clear out physical and emotional issues relating to birth trauma, trauma from physical and mental abuse, separation, negligence, and divorce. Many allergies and other immune problems can be traced back to trauma and if we can clear the trauma from the computer, who knows what healing can happen? Anyone who has experienced trauma might benefit from this work— integrating qi gong, and spiritual guidance may need to be an important part of the process. One little six year-old friend completely cleared her allergy to our dog (a hairy Labrador Retriever, in case you haven’t met Shadow) while she was living with us—with just three sessions and a positive, engaged outlook.
When the person is ready, we’ve been having some amazing results. Please consider the possibilities for your self and ones you care about, and give me a call. I imagine someone you know has an emotional issue that seems to have almost run its course, but still won’t let go entirely.....that’s when Blinking can really be effective.

Subjective Client Reports
Clients have reported feeling comforted, balanced,
and have noticed relief from pain during and following treatments.
They have shared that relief from physical pain has lasted from a
few hours, to days, to being “just
gone”.
Clients have reported a direct correlation between their
Qi Gong treatments and the improved recovery rates from various symptoms:
fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, allergy attacks, surgery, Multiple
Sclerosis, radiation and chemo treatments, bruise, sprains, menstrual
cramping, headaches (severe and mild), bronchitis, flu, colds, toe
fungus, Lyme Disease, and viral and bacterial infections.
A woman with
a history of sexual abuse as a child reported that her sexual energy
was opening up. Generally, clients have reported quicker recovery
from illness and more balanced energy in their lives, following their
experience with Qi Gong treatments.
This work is particularly helpful
for people who have tried more conventional paths for healing, and
have come away frustrated.
Blinking Stories
“We had to Blink and do Qi Gong three times to make the allergy stop. Now I feel all better because that really helped. Now I can play with Shadow and my eyes don’t hurt. I don’t cough and I don’t sneeze.”
Jada, age 6
..."Nina is an amazing healer as well as a gifted and compassionate person. My personal experience with a combined treatment of blinking, laser and Qi Gong made a tremendous breakthrough in my digestive problems related to gluten intolerance, as well as chronic pain and cramping associated with endometriosis. I highly recommend her to anyone who has been told that their concerns are untreatable by more conservative practices."
Dr. Kristy Allen, D.C.
“As a lifelong sufferer of chronic asthma I have tried everything that western medicine has to offer. After just a few sessions of Nina’s medical qi gong with added rapid blinking techniques, I have felt a decrease in my bronchial spasms, an increase in awareness and confidence in my breathing, as well as more self control over the relief of my symptoms.
With a history of violent athletic injuries, my body has suffered from systemic muscle spasms and an imbalance of energy flow. Medical qi gong with rapid blinking has elicited an deep instant shifting in these imbalances that have continued since my last visit with Nina. I am confident that this treatment has amplified the efficacy of my daily self-healing and exercise routine.”
Derek Barclay, Physical Therapy student
Results in General
Qi Gong treatments may benefit people who are stressed,
have chronic pain, are chronically tired, or emotionally depressed.
Qi Gong may provide relief and/or healing where other more traditional
treatments have failed. Qi Gong may help strengthen a person’s
immune system before and after surgery. Recovery from serious illness
may also be facilitated with Qi Gong treatments.
Confidentiality
As an intuitive healer, I will share pertinent information with you
about your situation. All personal information shared in a session will
be kept in strict confidentiality. I may ask you if I may speak with
other health practitioners in your life, if the situation calls for that.
I will ask you to sign a release, if that is the case.
