ABSTRACT:
A kinesthetic Chi rope employs a pair of handles, each handle formed as a cylindrical rod with a resonating chamber attached to one end, the chamber having a first coil spring secured as by welding to the internal surface of the chamber and a ball bearing surrounded by the coils which causes an audible vibration when the handle is shaken. A magnet having cylindrical polarity is housed within the cylindrical rod and a second coil spring is compressed between the outer surface of the resonating chamber and the cylindrical magnet, serving as a conductor of the vibratory forces. When the vibration issues from the resonating chamber, the vibrations pulsate through the magnet, into the handle and the hands of the user causing a tactile stimulation to flow into the user's hand, arm and upper torso, an auditory signal to be received from such vibration, a visual stimulus received, and a sinew tension produced by the predetermined weight of the handle, all four inputs combining to provide a kinesthetic input into the user's body restoring homeostasis and balancing to his/her nervous system through her/his acupuncture meridians. A regimen of 12 exercises using the chi handle and rope are taught for stimulating all body parts.
