|
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to raise the proper recognition of Qigong and expand the area of Medical Qigong in the korean Medicine by investigating and analyzing the current state of Javaldonggong training which has a high medical value but there has not been little research on.
Method : The survey of this study was conducted by doing a search on the internet - Naver(www.naver.com) and Daum(www.daum.net), Nate(www.nate.com), trying question-and-answer on the websites and over the phone, visiting the organizations and reading their publications.
Results : None of the teachers of these selected organizations are doctors. One thing all these organizations have in common is that they are, ultimately, aiming to gain the individual enlightenment and to contribute to public welfare although the terms they use are different. As for training contents, most of these organizations use breathing, meditation, gymnastics, circuit training in addition to Javaldonggong training and they work on Javaldonggong training programs to prevent problems that Qigong training can result in. 7 organizations have published the books of the theories, which are based on their own Javaldonggong training experience.
Conclusions : Applying Javaldonggong training to the therapy for the diseases is the role of a doctor of Korean medicine. A further study of and a great interest in Javaldonggong training are required for Korean medical doctors to gain a firm foothold in using it as the medical Qigong therapy.
