After Qi Gong, you will find that it is easier to stretch and massage the covering around each muscle (known as the fascia).
Doing so will improve circulation in that muscle because it is no longer trapped inside of stiff fascia during sustained effort (such as hanging your head over a keyboard for 4 hours).
That improved circulation prevents trigger points and lowers cortisol (the fight-or-flight stress hormone) during static activities.
So Qi Gong is great, but go the extra mile and work the fascia. Your muscle will thank you for it.
