What this library includes
This library includes selected studies and institutional sources cited on the website, not all available evidence. Published refers to the paper year; Checked is the date we reviewed the source. A recent check does not make a paper new.
This library currently has no clinical study entries specific to Jingang Gong; that does not establish that none exist. See the Jingang Gong source guide for teaching materials. Tai chi or Baduanjin findings cannot establish Jingang Gong outcomes.
