No, Barb, to be fair to you, the question was a very good one. Because basically what you were asking was "is the fact that this is a foreign, non-organic addition to my body, liable to cause a blockage and stop the natural flow of energy?", which is a very logical way of thinking about it.

The good news, according to qigong theory as I understand it and as my experience seems to confirm, is since EVERYTHING is energy, both organic and inorganic material, then channels of energy can move anywhere and everywhere.

And your clarification to your question: "I am wondering if SFQ can offset any energy blockages that may occur due to the placement of metals in the body", is the essence of the excellence in your question. That indeed is a very important question and the essence of what many people wonder about or fear. After all, many of us have some kind of dental implant if not other implants in our body.

So, a) give yourself credit for asking a very important question regarding your practice and its impact on your health and "new adopted child" in your body! And b) this is a question that I'll bet MANY people would be wondering about and therefore will profit from this discussion. That is the twofold value of this forum: it helps specific people with specific problems or questions and it acts as an archive or important information to help others. And without questions, nothing would happen!

No question about that! ;\)

So I thank you for asking it and for helping us think about it more.
