According to Chinese philosophy, our physical health is dependant on the balanced flow of Qi, the universal life force. The smooth flow of Qi can be disturbed by a number of factors, amongst them emotional stress, anger, fear or grief, hereditary dispositions or outside influences such as poor nutrition, infection or trauma.
