Changes taking place in both Qi Gong Masters and their patients during Qi Gong treatment were evaluated using the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test. During the Qi Gong state, on the Qi-Gong Master's body, as well as the body of the patient being treated, acupuncture points CV5 (Shi Men) and CV6 (Qi Hai)-- located below the umbilicus-- show changes from +4 in the pre-Qi Gong state to between -3 and -4 during the Qi Gong state. Before and after the Qi Gong, there is a normal +4 response to the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test at these acupuncture points. Similar changes were also observed on acupuncture points CV17 (Shan Zhong), CV 22 (Tian Tu), Yin Tang (at an area just between the eyebrows: the pituitary gland representation area, colloquially known as the "third eye") and GV20(Bai Hui), the entire pericardium meridian & triple burner meridian, their acupuncture points, the adrenal glands, testes, ovaries and perineum, as well as along the entire spinal vertebrae, particularly on and above the 12th thoracic vertebra, medulla oblongata, pons, and the intestinal representation areas of the brain located just above and behind the upper ear. Using these findings as criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of reaching the Qi Gong state, we were able to reproduce during the experimental trials similar changes in ourselves and the patient being treated with therapeutic effects comparable to those of the Qi Gong Master. Beneficial effects of external Qi Gong treatment given by a Qi Gong practitioner 1 to 3 times for 10-20 seconds each (although most Qi Gong masters take 3-20 minutes per treatment) often resulted in improvement of circulation and lowering of high blood pressure, as well as relaxation of spastic muscles, relief of pain, and enhanced general well-being, all of which resemble acupuncture effects. In order to reproduce the same procedure with others, we selected 4 children ranging between 8 and 11 years of age who had no knowledge of Qi Gong or Oriental medicine. One of these four children, the 8 year old, was able to consistently reach the same Qi Gong state after less than a half day and another child, 11, after less than 2 days. Within a week, the other two were sometimes able to reproduce the Qi Gong state but not always. Using the Qi Gong state thus obtained, it was found that this type of Qi Gong energy is directed to specific directions from the hand and can even penetrate wooden or metal doors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
运用双指 O 形环测试法评估了气功治疗过程中气功师及其患者身上发生的变化。在气功状态下，气功师以及接受治疗的患者身上，位于脐下的穴位任脉 5 穴（石门）和任脉 6 穴（气海），从气功状态前的 +4 变化为气功状态下的 -3 至 -4。在气功前后，这些穴位对双指 O 形环测试有正常的 +4 反应。在穴位任脉 17 穴（膻中）、任脉 22 穴（天突）、印堂（两眉之间区域：垂体代表区，俗称“第三只眼”）和督脉 20 穴（百会）、整个心包经和三焦经、它们的穴位、肾上腺、睾丸、卵巢和会阴，以及沿着整个脊椎，特别是在第 12 胸椎及其上方、延髓、脑桥以及位于上耳上方和后方的大脑肠代表区，也观察到了类似变化。以这些发现作为评估进入气功状态有效性的标准，我们在实验过程中能够在自己和接受治疗的患者身上重现类似变化，其治疗效果与气功师相当。气功师进行 1 至 3 次外部气功治疗，每次 10 - 20 秒（尽管大多数气功师每次治疗需要 3 - 20 分钟），其有益效果通常包括改善血液循环、降低高血压、放松痉挛肌肉、缓解疼痛以及增强整体健康感，所有这些都类似于针灸效果。为了让其他人重现相同过程，我们挑选了 4 名年龄在 8 至 11 岁之间、对气功或东方医学一无所知的儿童。这 4 名儿童中的一名，8 岁的孩子，在不到半天的时间内就能持续进入相同的气功状态，另一名 11 岁的孩子在不到 2 天的时间内也能做到。一周内，另外两名孩子有时能够进入气功状态，但并非总是如此。利用这样获得的气功状态，发现这种气功能量从手部指向特定方向，甚至可以穿透木门或金属门。（摘要截选至 400 字）
