Tai Chi Much?

According to the National Institute of Health (NIH) over 500 trails and 120 systemic reviews:

According to the study, this list includes “reviews of tai chi for specific conditions indicate excellent evidence of benefit for preventing falls, osteoarthritis, Parkinson disease, rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and improving cognitive capacity in older adults [also], good evidence of benefit for depression, cardiac and stroke rehabilitation, and dementia.
