Qigong and the kidneys

THE kidneys play a very significant role in our health. We are all aware of their role in filtering blood, regulating water, regulating blood pressure, and excreting metabolic wastes. We are also aware of the thousands who suffer from kidney failure and depend on costly and cumbersome dialysis machines to do the job for them.  

Others who are more fortunate can benefit from kidney transplantation, but this is infrequent since organ donation pledges are still relatively small here compared with other countries.
