Qigong allows access to higher realms of strength.
 In some medical systems a qigong master uses non-contact treatment, purportedly guiding qi through his or her own body into the body of another person
 Similar to its historical origin, those interested in qigong come from diverse backgrounds and practice it for different reasons, including for recreation, exercise, relaxation, preventive medicine, self-healing, alternative medicine, self-cultivation, meditation, spirituality, and martial arts training
