Testimony for Chi Gong Healing II

By Denise Okamoto

(September 14, 2008)

I’ve been attending Gene Kitade’s Tai-Chi/Tong Ren class since about March 2007.  The first testimonial I wrote was on May 30, 2007 entitled, “Testimony for Chi Gong Healing”.

 A couple months ago I received a phone call from my wonderful nurse, Shirley J. Her excitement was palpable on the other end of the phone.  Shirley was ecstatic as she explained that the damage around my heart had somehow begun to heal itself, and recent tests show that the tissue around my heart was now “near normal.” 

 Because I’m in kidney failure, and on dialysis, my heart has to pump harder to compensate for my body being so compromised.  This causes the lining around my heart to thicken and harden, making it more difficult for my heart to pump.  Without any treatment or medication, this thickened area has returned to its normal density. My nurse said that she has never seen anything like this before, and that the lining around my heart is now “near normal”.

Shirley asked me if I was doing anything different. And so I told her about how I was attending this Tong Ren (Tai chi) class once a week and using it as a weekly “healing session” for myself. She was deeply impressed, not just with the class, but also with the results from this weekly healing treatment.

 I eventually asked my Nephrologist, Dr. “H”  if she felt the class was really working.  She said she has only had one other patient who had a similar experience with no treatment or medicinal intervention.  Her reply was “Whatever works!!”.  Though the tests had shown that my heart was improving prior to attending class, it also shows that there was dramatic improvement during the time I was attending class.

 Attached are the results of the Echocardiograms 1.) Prior to attending class in March 2007, and 2.) Current test results, taken while attending class regularly. The test results do prove a measurable improvement, without medication or treatment, and with both a doctor’s and nurse’s opinion agreeing that this type of improvement is extremely rare.

 Its not just that the tissue around my heart has stopped thickening, The tissue that once was ailing, has somehow regenerated itself, and is now “near normal”.  The tissue damage has reversed itself, and is returning to normal, healthy tissue.

 It is up to the observer to decide for themselves, if they believe that my improvement, done so without medication or any medical treatment, is due to the Tong Ren weekly “healing sessions”.   One could say that there were signs of this improvement prior to attending the Tong Ren class.  But, one could also say, that this improvement continued, did not stop, did not regress, and had measurable qualities WHILE attending class.

 Whichever way you believe, either way, you are right.

 For myself, I do believe that this class has improved the quality of my life in ways I could only dream of.  And in believing that, this class will continue to improve my life, your life, and all of those who need hope to become real.

 Don’t leave before the miracle happens. If you stay long enough, something will change. It may or may not look like what you felt you needed, or what you wanted, or what you expected. But you may never find out, if you leave before the miracle happens.

 Thank you,

Denise Okamoto
