Answer 1

Nobody knows why it works, but people who practice this exercises claimed that it works.

Every change in our state of health is reflected in numerous electrical and biochemical changes that occur throughout the body. Although we cannot say that any particular compound is qi, scientists in both China and the West have noted that certain biochemicals behave like qi and may help explain how qi gong works.

The goal of some qi gong practices is to discharge and eliminate the impure qi in a manner analogous to breathing. Breathing is a process of absorbing a pure source of energy, oxygen and eliminating the impure, carbon dioxide. Like proper breathing, qi gong practice can make this exchanged more efficient.

The sensation of being full of qi, whether as a result of one’s own practice or of receiving external qi from a healer, corresponds to an increase in the body’s endorphins. If this is the only reason why qi gong feels good or reduces pain, then administering the endorphin blocker naloxone should prevent qi from having the usual effects. This has been experimentally tested in China. When reacts were subjected to a painful electric stimulus, external qi treatment reduced their pain significantly. Naloxone could only partially block this effect. This means that endorphins are a correlate of qi, but that qi is more than endorphins.

QI Gong is using your OWN NATURAL ENERGY, redirecting it - via very slow and precise exercises - in order to  spread it evenly and properly all over your body. It unblocks the energy stuck into you.

It is relaxation technique that builds up your energy levels, improves your health. It is considered a preventive tool as well as a healing one.

There is this excellent book by Master Lam Kam Chuen called "The way of energy" or Mastering the Chinese Art of internal strength with CHi Kung exercise (Edited by the UK -Gaia Books Ltd). You may want to check it out as it is full of useful infomation on how Qi Gong works, its benefits on your mental, physical and emotional health.

PS>: Reiki on the other hand is about using the universal energy that is around us to improve one's health psychologically, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Answer 3

As far as i know, Qi Gong is a form of energy. When our body is not right or dis-ease or having disease, the energy in our body, in chinese it's called chi, will fall. When this body energy falls, we tend to get sick. But through Qi Gong, we are able to get the energy to the right level, the body knows how to heal itself. That's when people say that your chi is at peace.
