Summary

Many Asian Americans with depression also suffer from physical symptoms like pain or fatigue, but no proven treatment addresses both together. This study will test whether combining a stress management program with Qigong/Tai Chi movements is practical and acceptable for 70 adults. The goal is to see if this holistic approach can be safely delivered online and help ease both mood and body discomfort.
