Baduanjin exercises

Baduanjin has 8 movement forms, which are relatively less demanding. Assistive equipment is also not necessary during Baduanjin. These advantages make Baduanjin a suitable form of exercise training for post thyroidectomy patients. The movements involved in Baduanjin require the individual to reach beyond the base of support, change the base of support between bilateral and unilateral stance, and perform movements in a sustained squatting posture. These maneuvers challenge balance and require muscle strength to be executed successfully. In 8 movement forms of Baduanjin all include shoulder joint function exercises, thus making Baduanjin a potentially useful method for improving activity level and arm strength.
