Tai chi instructor says ancient practice saved his life - twice
Nearly 60 years ago, Benjamin Lo became sick and sought treatment from a doctor in Taiwan.
"When I was 20, I was weak," recalled the 77-year-old Lo.
He visited Cheng Man-ch'ing, a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine and one of the first tai chi masters to teach westerners this art. Man-ch'ing treated him, but told him medicine alone would not be enough.
Man-ch'ing recommended tai chi. It worked.
