Founded in 1985 by Professor Jerry Alan Johnson, the International Institute of Medical Qigong (IIMQ) has been educating Westerners in Chinese energetic medicine for over 20 years. The IIMQ is currently offering certification coursework in the greater Washington, DC Metro area through the George Washington University’s Center for Integrative Medicine (GWU-CIM).
Fashioned after the Medical Qigong College at the Hai Dian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing , China , the IIMQ is known internationally for maintaining the highest standards in Medical Qigong instruction and clinical therapy. Because of these consistent standards, the Chinese Ministry of Health honored the IIMQ early in 2005 as meeting and exceeding the Chinese standards for academic and clinical instruction.
Additionally, the He Nan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, in Zheng Zhou, China, has recognized the International Institute of Medical Qigong as a "sister school" of the university, and has adopted the IIMQ's curriculum and the textbook authored by Professor Johnson titled, Chinese Medical Qigong Therapy: A Comprehensive Clinical Text.
This site provides information on a variety of courses, treatments and educational materials offered by the International Institute of Medical Qigong. Instruction led by George Washington University’s (GWU-CIM) Ted O’Brien, L.Ac., MMQ.
