Development of a Qigong Used for Insomnia Therapy (QUIT) Program for Improving Sleep Quality and Blood Pressure in Chinese Women With Menopause: Pre-Post Pilot Test of Feasibility
The QUIT intervention was culturally sensitive, low-cost, and easy to implement. It showed significant improvements in sleep quality and trends toward reduced BP in Chinese menopausal women. Further investigation is recommended to further test the QUIT intervention to establish a robust program across different states. Once validated, the QUIT intervention may be implemented in various clinical settings to help Chinese menopausal women achieve optimal sleep quality and BP management.
