This was how Dr. Oz responded on November1, 2007 during an interview with Oprah when he was asked out of all the health practices that one could do, what was the one practice that he would choose and recommend people practice to stay healthy.

“The overall benefit of QiGong is to mobilize and harmonize the body's naturally occurring healing resource (known as qi in China),” Qigong stimulates human bioelectrical conductibility according to Roger Jahnke, O.M.D., of Santa Barbara, California.  He  goes on to say “The human body has the ability to conduct an electrical charge.  This effects the entire body, and it is responsible for maintaining the function of the organs and tissues.  QiGong works by improving circulation of the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems, as well as modulating brain chemistry”.

According to Dr. Jacobs, QiGong is a vital powerful technique that is totally missing in the typical Americans understanding of how health can be achieved.  They have no idea that China has the world's largest nonprofit medicineless hospital that has treated more than one hundred and eighty diseases with an overall success rate of 95% using only hours of Qi Gong exercise, love, and life energy.  He also feels strongly that those who do only external exercise (running, biking, weights, etc.) as he did for many years, are missing the tremendous benefits of internal exercise (Qi Gong and meditation).

In 1995 Dr. Jacobs, D.C., received his certificate of Completion from Qi Gong Master Effie Chow.  In 1998 he completed the Spring Forest QiGong level 1-4 through the Master Chui Linn program.  Recently in 2008-2009, Dr. Jacobs completed level one, two, and three Supreme Science QiGong with Jeff Primak (qigong.com).

Dr. Jacobs currently practices his Qi Gong daily to increase his energy level and teaches his patients basic exercises to maximize theirs.  He has taught many QiGong workshops in the Iowa City and surrounding areas.  Many of his students have provided testimonials stating how they utilize their exercises and the benefits they have experienced.
