Taichi is an effective, enjoyable, and inexpensive form of exercise intervention for supporting and maintaining physical and mental health.
A 2022 study reported in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine summarised current knowledge about the effectiveness of taichi for older adults with a range of general health outcomes.
The authors reported that practicing taichi can significantly

reduce the incidence of falls and nonfatal stroke, and
decrease stroke risk factors.
They concluded with a high level of certainty that health care providers can recommend taichi for promoting health and improvement of overall well-being of older adults.
