The Haywood Foundation are very happy to announce that they are to once again fund the very popular Tai Chi and Qigong sessions, helping to support patients with arthritis or other related conditions in terms of their health and wellbeing.
Tai Chi and Qigong are low impact activities suitable for everyone. Each person works within their own limitations to improve their strength, balance and flexibility, without putting stress on their joints.
It is an ideal activity if you are recovering from a fall or want to improve your mobility.
Tai Chi can improve your mood and help with depression, stress and anxiety. It can improve energy levels, increase stamina as well as lowering your blood pressure. It is also a very social activity.
Sessions will be held at:
The Quaker Meeting House, Overton Bank, Leek, ST13 5ES.
Each Tuesday – Time 4.30 to 5.30pm
and
Port Vale football club Port Vale Football Club, Hamil Road, Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, ST6 1AW
Each Thursday – Time 1.30 to 2.30pm
Sessions are free and open to all patients who are interested in trying these ancient Chinese health exercises to aid relaxation, enhance their well-being and reduce stress levels.
If you are interested, want to find out more, or would like to book a place please contact June Brammar on 07929 875554 or email [email protected]
