Well, I'll have to stay anecdotal.
I was approached by a young woman that has a heart transplant surgery. She has very poor peripheral circulation, so much so that her fingertips started going black.
I was scared, asked for a sign off from her MD, and hesitated even then.
After several weeks of mild basic training and form-work, her condition improved, she only lost one fingertip.
YMMV, but, this is indicative of the kind of effect that Tai Chi Chuan, done right, can have on the circulatory system.

I have started Tai Chi Chuan practice in earnest after my second crash and burn, I was debilitated, suffered from chronic back pain and stiff neck and shoulders.
Now, 30 years later, I'm in great shape, I run a business, I practice for over 3 hours daily and teach evenings.
Tai Chi Chuan teaches correct posture, body use, breath, relaxation in reaction to stress; however, this is not a panacea, I worked harder than at any other endeavor in my life to make it work.

Tai Chi Good for Older Adults |
|
www.sciencedaily.com
|
Twice in a week one-hour classes of Tai Chi interventions promote independent physical activity, improve balance, and significantly reduce falls among older adults living in a community, according to a CDC funded study. Tai chi has an advantage over other interventions because it is a low-cost exercise activity and few facilities are needed.
