Recent feedback from Lorraine, one of my students. I told her that hearing this made my heart sing as it is exactly what Tai Chi for Health programmes are for! Shared with her permission: 

“Hi Morag. I have just had a rheumatology check up. The consultant was amazed at my mobility given that I have psoriatic arthritis. I explained that I do 2 tai chi classes per week and she said "ah, that's why you are so mobile, tai chi is wonderful for your condition. Keep doing what you are doing.". You and I knew this already, but it's nice that the consultant endorsed it I think. She made no changes to my meds and I have to back in a year. Given that my condition is progressive, I think this is a great result for tai chi! Xx”
