Recently, Wai Qi therapy is becoming recognized throughout the world as a method of therapeutic treatment. Measurements have been made of the physiological function changes in the skin temperature of the hands and thermal sweating when a Qigong master was doing Wai Qi Fa Gong (emitting the external Qi). In this experiment, when the Qigong master was doing Wai Qi Fa Gong, the electroencephalogram (EEG), respiration, ECG and heart rates of both the master and receivers were measured. Also, the effects of Wai Qi Fa Gong on both sides' physiological functions and the mechanism of Wai Qi therapy were studied.
