Regimens: Tai Chi Shows Promise as a Stroke Therapy

Tai Chi's efficacy has been supported by a study published in the journal Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair. The study looked a 136 people who had chronic effects of stroke (cva) and taught half Tai Chi once a week for an hour and recommended practice at home about three hours a week. The other half performed exercise for a similar amount of time. The Tai Chi group improved in balance significantly more than the "exercise" group.
