Ancient Mind-Body practice tested as depression relief for seniors

NCT ID NCT05000788

Summary

This study is testing whether practicing a form of Qigong, an ancient Chinese mind-body exercise, can help reduce depression and improve thinking skills in older adults. Researchers will compare 60 participants aged 65+ with depressive symptoms, assigning them to either a Qigong group or a standard exercise group. The main goal is to see if Qigong leads to measurable improvements in mood and brain function.
