I assume this newbie question should go in this newbie section... I am new to Taoism and Qigong. I've been working on learning Dragon and Tiger for a couple of months. I've only learned all 7 movements about a week ago. I was in my Naturopath's office receiving some treatment when he put me on a table for some pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF). I could feel the electromagnetic field. My naturopath said that most people cannot feel the field and that my qigong practice must have me more in tune with my energy. I liked being able to feel the field move up and down my body. It was an interesting sensation. Does anyone have experience with PEMF? Will my development of qi make the PEMF table no longer needed, or more effective?

My name is Joshua Smith. I am learning qigong. I started only a couple of weeks ago. I ordered the Dragon and Tiger Medical Qigong set from Bruce Frantzis and EnergyArts. I have only learned the first 4 movements but am excited about what I am learning and how I am feeling. I went through The Practice of Qigong by Ken Cohen and am well into The Great Courses', Great Minds of the Eastern Intellectual Tradition. I am considering learning Flying Phoenix with Terry Dunn's DVD set next. (I like to plan things.) As I was looking into Flying Phoenix I ran across this forum and found that Dunn and Franztis are both here. I look forward to learning more and the discussions I may be a part of as I continue my journey. May many of us walk beside one another, if only for a little while.
