Martial arts
for health is about the various health benefits
you may encounter from doing one of the
many fighting arts or taking up activities
normally associated with the arts.
|
Side
note: Make
sure you check out all the great
(and free) stuff inside
'The
Martial Arts Vault' when
you're finished having a look
at this page!
|
|
To
show you the possible combative arts
and health avenues we will introduce
articles, studies, findings, research and
feedback from many sources.
|
Maybe
you have an interesting story to share?
Or maybe you've read an article or similar
about the topic. If so then tell the world
about your
martial arts for health tips or
experiences here!
|
|
Naturally, we all
like conclusive evidence... We like to know
for sure that what we hear, see, or read
is true. In a perfect world it would be
easy to figure out what is "the gospel"
and what is not.
|
|
Some aspects of
martial arts for health are easier to verify
than others. Anything that happens on a
physical level is easier to test and document.
On the other hand, psychological and mental
phenomenon are much harder to evaluate
and back up with "hard science and
facts".
|
|
Does this mean
that we should say it isn't "real"
or "true" simply because we cannot
(yet) test and document the mental and psychological
benefits of the fighting arts like we can
with physiology and anatomy, blood-levels,
heart-rate, lung capacity, mobility, strength and
so on. I for one think we should be aware
that these "non-physical" benefits
are real for those who experiences them!
But at the same time, let us not forget
that they also are more subjective
by nature.
|
|
And finally, let
us not forget that we are talking of many
systems operating together as one -
emotional, mental, cognitive and physical.
And martial arts for health is about the
whole person, not "just" the physical
body!
|
|
In the following you
will find various links, books, reports,
researches, tips, articles and much more
about your health and the fighting arts.
Here's to your health!

Reducing the risk of falls with tai chi: |
|
|
From: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/108259.php
(May
21, 2008):
|
|
Statistics show that thirty-percent of ambulatory seniors over the age of 65 living in a community
fall every year. Falls represent the leading cause of death for
people over 65 and the number of fall-related deaths continues to increase with
every passing year. |
|
Many in the medical world are well aware of the absolute necessity to pursue
ways to lower these numbers and help elders to remain on their feet. One of the rapidly emerging programs prescribed
by a number of medical professionals is Tai Chi. |

Tai chi - a help for type 2 diabetes?: |
|
|
From: http://www.newsmax.com
(April
1, 2008):
|
|
British Journal of Sports
Medicine have published a small study which suggests tai chi exercises can improve the control of type 2 diabetes.
|
|
A team of researchers looked at the impact of a 12 week program of such
exercises on the activity of
T helper cell in 30 patients with type 2 diabetes and
30 healthy people of the same age. |
|
It was found that glycated haemoglobin (that is when excess blood sugar
combines with the oxygen transporter in red blood cells) levels fell
significantly from 7.59% to 7.16 in the diabetic patients. Also, the levels of interleukin-12, which boosts the immune response, doubled.
Levels of interleukin-4, which suppresses the immune response, fell. Furthermore,
T cell activity also increased
significantly.

indicated that he may have cerebral palsy.
|
|
Now, he can kick and jump - and climb stairs without help
from another person - thanks to a year of exercise and therapy at a Tunkhannock
martial arts
institute. |

School owner Kevin Robinson, who also works as a nurse, noted that other people who have
cerebral palsy and physical challenges like it, participate and do well in martial
arts. "It's all about helping them focus," the instructor said. |

Researchers at Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital for Children
in Boston, have conducted a pilot study to assess the effects of a martial arts
program on children with epilepsy. |
|
A series of 10-week, 1 hour per week Kempo karate
classes were offered to children aged 8-16 years. Quality of life,
self-concept, and parental anxiety were assessed through questionnaire measures. |

Trying to fit in one of the challenges autistic kids are facing.
However, martial arts training can help autistic children build self confidence,
coordination and social skills, according to several studies.
|
|
Using the art of karate, sensei Wayne Centra at a children's hospital in California is
teaching kids social skills. The occupational therapist developed the program
called "karate for all" at the California children's hospital. His main
objective is to
help special needs children.
|
|
Even
though an outside observer might not know
it, many of the children in
karate class have some form of autism. The karate activities have been adapted to help the children maintain
attention span and focus, according to Centra.

The
University of California at

East-West Medicine has conducted
a study which adds
one more medical malady to the
list: Tension headaches.
|
|
Dr.
Ka-Kit Hui, founder and director
of the center and co-author
of the study, says that "A
lot of people have tension headaches
and they just take Tylenol or
over-the-counter medications,
which buys them some relief,
but doesn't get to the root
of the problem. We teach them
how to deal with negative emotions."
|

Tai
chi addresses body-mind issues,
Dr. Hui added, which can
help improve a practicer's quality
of life.
|

According
to the National Headache Foundation
(NHF), tension headaches are
the most common form of headache,
with about 78 percent of adults
experiencing one at some point

Hong
Kong -- Elderly people can reduce
their chances of falling and
injuring themselves if they
regularly practice tai chi,
a slow motion martial art, according
to a survey by the Hong Kong
Hospital Authority released
Wednesday. A study of 3,221
elderly aged over 60 showed
that the 893 people who regularly
took part in tai chi exercise
had fewer falls, the South China
Morning Post reported.
|
|
The
research, carried out between
January 2005 and March this
year by hospital officials,
found the number of falls resulting
in injury dropped from 2.7 per
cent to 1.5 per cent for those
that regularly practiced tai
chi. By comparison, the rate
actually increased to 4 per
cent for people who stopped
tai chi.

(April
6, 2007):
|
|
A new study shows that T'ai chi significantly improves the ability of older
adults' immune systems to fight varicella zoster - a virus that causes shingles
(a painful, blistery rash). |
|
It is alleged that about one-third of adults
over age 60 develop shingles. |
|
The 25-week study was conducted at the
University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). It involved 112 people, ages 59 to
86. |
|
Researchers found that T'ai chi, by itself, increased immunity
against the virus to a level that was comparable to having received the standard
vaccine. |

A new study suggests that participation in the Chinese martial art Tai Chi Chuan
may help boost immune function and improve blood sugar control in people with
type 2 diabetes.
|
|
After completing a 12-week Tai Chi exercise program, men and women with the
disease had statistically significant reductions in their levels of A1C, a
measurement of long-term blood glucose control. The participants also showed
increases in regulatory T cells, which help to keep the immune response in
check, while their levels of killer T cells, which destroy abnormal cells in the
body, decreased. |

Research reinforces findings that Chinese exercises benefit older adults: |
|
|
From:
sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/06/060629084229.htm
(June 29, 2006):
|
|
New work by researchers at the University of Illinois lends strength to
previous research documenting the health benefits of Qigong and Taiji among
older adults who practice these ancient Chinese martial-arts forms.
|
|
"Traditional Tai Chi training includes Qigong, but most
contemporary Tai Chi researchers have omitted Qigong from their research,"
said visiting kinesiology professor Yang Yang. "As a result, previous
researchers may not have documented all of the health benefits possible from
traditional Tai Chi training."
|
|
In two studies – one quantitative, one qualitative – presented recently
at the North American Research Conference on Complementary & Integrative
Medicine, lead researcher Yang found that healthy seniors who practiced a
combination of Qigong and Tai Chi three times a week for six months experienced
significant physical benefits after only two months.

Kung fu's healing qualities: |
|

(April 26, 2006):
|
|
It may have been in slow motion; it may have been just part of practice, but
when Tammy Johnston first started taking kung fu in Burbank, she cringed at
every feigned kick and slow-moving fist.
|
|
"At first, you do sets," Johnston said. "No matter how slowly we did them, I
would hold my breath and close my eyes."
|
|
Eventually, however, Johnston began to keep her eyes open, and the classes
began to help her recover from a past of domestic abuse. Now, Johnston is using
her experience to give back to other abuse victims -- teaching them confidence
and focus through martial arts.
|
|
"Tammy was motivated from her soul to change her life," said Tatyanna
Wilkerson, who now serves on the board of Johnson's nonprofit. "She didn't just
take small steps in changing her life, she went big." |
|
"In 1995, I was almost killed in domestic violence," she said. "He broke my
back, I had multiple fractions and concussions -- right now I still have a
ruptured disk that pushes in my spinal cord."
|
|
A year after the attack, Johnston was still in recovery when she wandered by
a kung fu school in Burbank.

Octogenarian teaches tai chi to help other seniors heal: |

It's difficult to apply one word to Helen R. Thomas' perspective on tai
chi.
|
|
Better to use several -- moving meditation, peace, spiritual expression and
healing.
|
|
At 85, she's such a believer in the benefits of the gentle martial art that
she's improvising a new sitting form of tai chi for people using wheelchairs and
canes.
|
|
On Thursday she was teaching one of the classes to her seated students of the
Lorelton, a Wilmington assisted-living facility where Thomas has an
apartment.
|
|
"One woman, who has severe Parkinson's disease could barely move her hands,
when we started," says Thomas. "Now she can open them and close them. That's a
victory for her."
|
|
Eight years ago, Thomas feared she might become a cripple from the arthritis
in her back and knees. She did not relish surgery, turning in desperation to tai
chi, which she now credits with healing the pain and stiffness in her
joints.

Laura Henry had severe shoulder pain from osteoarthritis. She couldn't pick
up a gallon of milk or reach for a dish from her cupboard. Lifting weights or
riding her bike was unthinkable.
|
|
She saw only negligible improvement from anti-inflammatory drugs and
exercises prescribed by her doctor. "I had done all the exercises, and I took
all the medicines," she says. "My range of motion was very poor. I didn't know
what to do."
|
|
Then she read about a new class in a flier from her corporate fitness center:
Tai Chi for Arthritis.
|
|
"I'd done everything else," she says. "It wasn't working. That's what led me
to try it."
|
|
Nearly two years later, Henry, 52, attends tai chi class twice a week. She's
pain-free and more active than she's been in years. |

Belle Meade residents enjoy Tai Chi: |
|
|
From: http://www.thepilot.com/news/031006bellemeade.html
(March 9, 2006):
|
|
Residents at Belle Meade are enjoying the many health benefits of tai chi. |
|
One major benefit of practicing tai chi is the improvement of balance. In
older people, this improvement in balance can protect them from falling. |
|
In a study conducted by researchers at Emory University in Atlanta titled
“Reducing Fragility and Falls in Older Persons: An Investigation of Tai Chi and
Computerized Balance Training,” there was a 47.5 percent reduction of falls,
along with a reduced fear of falling, in the tai chi participants. |
|
Participants in the tai chi group study also provided anecdotal reports of
aborted falls and improved awareness of environment and body maneuvers when
presented with unexpected disturbances. The authors of the study concluded that
their data suggest that tai chi can significantly influence functioning and
well-being in the elderly, providing “some appreciation for why this exercise
form has been practiced by older Chinese for more than three centuries.” |
|
Other noted benefits of tai chi in the medical community are the lowering of
blood pressure, the improvement of heart and blood vessel function, improved
sleep in seniors, and ease of joint pain. |
|
Another surprising benefit that is being studied is that researchers are
finding that tai chi may improve a person’s immunity to shingles. |

Tai Chi reduces falls in older people - new study confirms earlier reports: |
|
|
From: http://www.seniorjournal.com/NEWS/Fitness/5-06-27TaiChi-Falls.htm
(June 27, 2005):
|
|
A new study confirms what has been reported by other researchers since 1996 –
Tai Chi, a martial arts form that enhances balance and body awareness through
slow, graceful and precise body movements, can improve balance, build strength
and reduce the risk of falls in the elderly. |
|
The new study published in
the Journal of Advanced Nursing reported on a group of fall-prone senior
citizens, with an average age of 78, living in residential care. Twenty nine
undertook a 12-week Tai Chi course three times a week and 30 formed the
non-exercise control group. |
|
They found that the physical fitness of the
exercise group showed significant improvement, with stronger knee and ankle
muscles, improved mobility and flexibility and better balance. |
|
For
example, after the exercise program had finished, the time taken by the exercise
group to walk six meters had fallen by 25 per cent, while the control group took
14 per cent longer. |

Doctor's study finds martial arts helps control disorder: |
|
|
From: http://www.zwire.com
(March 20, 2005):
|
|
Families seeking treatment from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
typically turn to medication and counseling, but what about karate? |
|
According to the Tiger Schulmann's Web site, Dr. Matthew Morand presented the
study in spring 2004 for his doctor of psychology dissertation at Hofstra
University in New York. After they supported his findings, the University, and
Morand, published the study. |
|
"I took my love of psychology and martial arts and mixed them together," said
Morand, who is a fan of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. |
|
When Morand would observe children just starting out in the Tiger Schulmann's
program, he noticed that many of them had no ability to pay attention. Months
later, he saw different attitudes and a new-found discipline in the same
students. |
|
This experience motivated him to search online to investigate a possible linkage
between martial arts and ADHD. What he found was a lot of theories and no proof. |
|
"Nothing had been empirically derived. I wanted to change the face of that,"
Morand said. |

East Texans find balance in ancient art of Qui Gong: |

In the horse stance, feet far apart and squatting as if sitting on an imaginary
stool, the Sifu tells Tricia Eason, along with the rest of the Tai Chi/Qui Gong
class, to breath in and then release sinking lower into the stance. |
|
Mrs. Eason does it with no pain in her expression, which some would say is
amazing since she has fibromyalgia.
|
|
Just months earlier, Mrs. Eason's legs were weak with Charlie horse-like pain
and had no balance or strength.
|
|
"I had stopped breathing normally because I was bracing myself against the
pain," she said. "I held myself rigid but I didn't notice because it happened
slowly over the past four years."
|

Mrs. Eason has been taking Tai Chi classes at Tyler Kung Fu & Fitness and
recently she has been learning Qui Gong, (sometimes spelled Qigong and pronounce
chi kung), the internal art of creating and harnessing energy.

Tai Chi 'can treat heart failure': |

|
From: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3728174.stm
(October 9, 2004):
|
|
Tai Chi can help people with heart failure, doctors believe.
|
|
A US study of 30 patients found regular classes gave patients better movement
and reduced BNP levels, a measure of heart failure.
|
|
A number of the patients attended twice weekly classes for 12 months while a
second group had standard treatment. |
|
The British Heart Foundation said the study was "excellent news" and Tai Chi
could be adopted into treatment programmes in the UK in the future. |
|
More than 800,000 in the UK have heart failure, which, unlike a heart attack,
happens when the heart gradually loses the ability to pump blood around the body
efficiently. |
|
Commenting on the findings in the American Journal of Medicine, Cathy Ross, a
cardiac nurse at the BHF, said: "Studies have been done on this before and have
shown it helps. |

flexibility in older people, but it also has positive effects on chronic health
conditions like multiple sclerosis and joint problems.

Regular wrestling could boost children's immune systems, a study suggests. |
|
University of California researchers found the number of bacteria and virus
fighting white blood cells was significantly raised by exercise. |
|
They said in the British Journal of Sports Medicine that natural killer cells
rose in particular. |
|
However, sports science experts said white blood cell counts alone were not
evidence of improved immunity. |
|
A separate study, published in the same journal, highlighted the benefits of
exercise in all age groups, finding that martial arts promote fitness in middle
age. |
|
The research into children put 11 healthy boys aged between 14 and 18 through a
1.5-hour wrestling practice session and sampled their blood before and after the
session.
|
|
They found that levels of all groups of white blood cells, particularly the
natural killer cells, rose significantly. |
