You Already Have the Power to Heal.
We’re Here to Help You Find It.
Maybe you’ve tried everything mainstream medicine has to offer and still feel stuck. Maybe chronic pain, stress, or anxiety has become your new normal, and you’re starting to wonder if things will ever really change.
Or maybe you already sense that real healing runs deeper than a prescription. That the answers you’re looking for aren’t outside of you, but within you, waiting to be unlocked.
You’re right. And you’re in exactly the right place.
Chris Shelton
Chris Shelton knows what it means to hit rock bottom, and he knows what it takes to rise from it completely.
Growing up in an abusive and neglectful home, Chris began using drugs at just 12 years old. By 19, he had survived two heart attacks. He knew his path was leading to prison, death, or both. So he made a choice to change direction and enrolled in Tae Kwon Do.
Then, the night before a match, an accidental kick shattered his back. He was left in constant, debilitating pain, barely able to walk.
What looked like the end of the road became the doorway to everything.
That injury led Chris to Qigong, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Tai Chi. And within a 10-year period, he went from barely walking to becoming a martial arts champion and one of the most respected healers in the country.
That is not a miracle. That is the power of these ancient practices working through a willing human being to grow and change. Chris’s motto is “If I can do it, YOU can too.”
More Than 30 Years of Clinical Mastery
After studying with masters across disciplines and applying these ancient healing arts to his own life and clinical practice for over three decades, Chris has helped countless people reclaim their health and enjoy lives free from chronic pain, stress, trauma, and disease. He has worked with Special Olympics teams, professional athletes, and celebrities seeking deeper meaning and vitality.
Chris’s expertise has been featured in Black Belt Magazine (Germany), Inside Kung Fu, and Silicon Valley Business Journal, and across radio, Showtime, NBC Sports, the UFC, KTLA, and news stations throughout the United States.
Chris is the founder of Morning Crane Healing Arts Center, with offices in Los Angeles, San Jose, and Seattle. He is the author of Chris Shelton’s Easy Guide to Fix Neck and Back Pain and Chris Shelton’s Easy Guide to Emotional Well-Being with Qigong. And Chris is the producer of the award-winning upcoming TV series The Healer, and the YouTube series 30 Days Qigong to Better Health. Chris is also the co-founder of The Qi Club, QigongTeacherTraining.com, and Curative Qigong®, a two-year graduate-level Chinese Medicine program.

In 2020, The Qi Club was created in response to the global pandemic, with a focus on empowering members to release fear and worry and access peace, joy, and a renewed zest for life.
Healing is not something that happens to you. It is something that happens through you. We’re here to show you the way.
Why Qigong, Tai Chi, and Chinese Medicine?
Because they work. Not by masking symptoms, but by addressing the root causes of suffering, restoring the flow of energy in the body, and activating your own innate capacity to heal.
These are not trends. They are time-tested systems with thousands of years of wisdom behind them, brought to life for the world you live in today.
Chris specializes in helping people heal from chronic pain and physical injury, stress and anxiety, and trauma and emotional disorders that manifest as disease.
