Tai Chi Chuan, transtornos do sono, qualidade do sono, qualidade de vidaResumo
Objectivo: Este artigo apresenta uma análise dos estudos internacionais realizados relativamente aos efeitos da prática do Tai Chi Chuan (também conhecido por taichi ou taijiquan) no sono dos seus praticantes, com o fim de clarificar o quadro de investigação desta problemática, quais são os seus efeitos e as quais são as causas produzidas.
Método: A análise bibliográfica realizou-se até ao mês de Outubro do ano 2011, tendo por base sete bases de dados internacionais.
Resultados/Conclusões: Os trabalhos de revisão realizados sobre o tema são muito escassos e abordam um limitado número de estudos. Os estudos específicos confirmam uma tendência positiva relativamente à prática do tai chi chuan, produz uma melhoria significativa sobre a estabilidade (interrupção do sono) e qualidade (eficácia e duração) do sono nocturno e uma melhoria geral sobre o sono diurno, mas para desfrutar de tais benefícios é necessário um tempo mínimo de prática. As causas fisiológicas que conduzem a esta melhoria estão, todavia, por determinar.Downloads
