In TCM, prolonged Qi constraint may be experienced as tension, a sense of pressure or fullness, digestive discomfort, or the feeling that something simply isn't moving as it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Liver* is particularly associated with the smooth and unrestricted flow of Qi throughout the body. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlowing Qi was created with this principle in mind.

It needs room to flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e*A Note on Traditional Chinese Medicine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe terms used here (including Qi, Liver, Spleen, and other Chinese medicine concepts) refer to \u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Chinese Medicine theory and do not correspond directly to anatomical organs or biomedical diagnoses.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn TCM, the Liver, for example, represents a functional system associated with the smooth movement of Qi, Blood, emotions, and other physiological processes.
