My parents sent me this video last week. It is their neighborhood group practicing Tai Chi in Wuhan, China. Among them is 96 year old Qunyun Li.

Tai Chi is great for balance, strength and coordination. It is a walking meditation for inner peace. Research has shown that regular practice of Tai Chi increases brain volume and augments memory and cognitive function.

When you watch this 96 year old perform her Tai Chi moves, you will believe it. Let's all be healthy and young!

Wuhan China is my hometown. I have watched closely since the COVID-19 broke out there and hope to find reliable and useful information on how to reduce the risk of infection by coronavirus and what to do if you suspect you have symptoms. I have shared this information with my patients and friends in two emails. They are now available on my blog sites.

Coronavirus Part 1: How can you reduce the risk of infection?

This post discusses herbal medicine and supplements you can take to prevent or reduce risk of COVID-19 and a real perspective from a doctor in Wuhan, China.

Youyou Tu of China was awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine today. Do you know her award-winning discovery of Artemisinin for malaria was inspired by a Chinese medicine book written 1700 years ago? Traditional medicine continues to be a treasure box for discovery of new therapies for modern diseases. I was inspired to write a blog on this topic.

Traditional Chinese medicine not only led to the discovery of Nobel prize winning anti-malaria drug Artemisinin, but continues to inspire new ideas and therapies.

Radial nerve palsy is a type of peripheral neuropathy. It results from compression or injury to radial nerve, causing pain, wrist drop and loss of sensation in hands. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs are great alternative options for treating this condition, besides medications, physical therapy and surgery. Here I discuss a case treated successfully with the integrative approach.

Is the touted "new" knee ligament, anterolateral ligament (ALL), new? Here is my fact checking. If you have knee pain or knee injury that still hurt after surgery and physical therapy, tear in this ligament may be the cause.

There has been excitement over the "discovery" of anterolateral ligament (ALL) in the human knee. The truth is we now have better understanding for a ligament first described in 1879.
