Abstract
Background: Qigong is one characteristic therapy of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), and it has benefited more and more. However, to our best knowledge, the physical model of Qigong therapies remains unknown. Method: Based on the progress of modern science, one physical model of Qiong therapy-mobile phone model is presented. Discussions: The main points of the model are: one normal healthy person is just like one mobile phone which is communicating well in the net, the internal Qi of the person is just like the standing electromagnetic waves inside of the mobile phone, and the external Qi is just like the travelling electromagnetic waves outside of it; the best Qigong state of one healthy person is considered just like one continuing optimal mobile phone, with development one generation by one generation and with strong signal communicating well in net, not like one fixed to one generation. The reason of one person is sick is the electromagnetic waves inside of the person deviates from standing waves or the electromagnetic waves outside deviates from travelling waves. It is the first step to correct the deviation for one patient to cultivate Qigong and finally to get the optimal state of integrating the Three Adjustments into one. The rationality of the mobile phone model and the essence of Qi in the model are discussed.
