Hi Rick,
Maybe your expectations were different, or your understanding of what is involved in a session, is not the case. Energy work can be obvious, or very subtle, too. 'Subtle energy work' is sometimes a more general phrase used to categorize qigong healing work. Also, we can only, truly, heal ourselves, and it is an ongoing process. There always seems to be lessons to learn about the choices we make! Keep up the martial arts practice. sounds like it is helping you. Let your qigong temper your martial arts. Sometimes, it can work both ways, if it is a high level system, and a form of qigong in itself. They can have there own times, but relate. A meditation practice, can greatly improve and heighten, movement. It is not immediate, but with time, it can greatly affect how you move in a martial arts context.
love,
gallen
