We describe the successful treatment of a case of chronic myeloid leukemia with Qi therapy. The patient's disease was managed with conventional medical treatment and Qi therapy as a complementary therapy. Before Qi therapy, 95% of the patient's bone marrow showed evidence of disease. A second bone marrow sample five months after Qi therapy revealed that 38% of the bone marrow was normal; one year after Qi therapy the bone marrow was no longer producing any cancer cells. Although these results were obtained for a single case only and may not constitute conclusive evidence, the data suggest that Qi therapy given as a complementary therapy during conventional medical treatment may have beneficial effects on chronic myeloid leukemia.
