Manufacturer: Spring Wind This formula is a modification of a combination of hai tong pi tang, and wu jia pi tang. Those decoctions concentrate on moving qi and blood, dispelling cold-damp and relieving pain. This modification is slightly warmer than either of its two components. This is a good general treatment for all second-stage sinew damage as long as swelling has substantially decreased. In light cases this soak-compress can be used three days after insult, but in most cases it is best to wait for five to seven days before employing a steam-soak. Use this soak-compress after swelling has dissipated and what remain are blood stasis, stiffness and limitations of joint movement. DosageCook in two cups of water. Bring to a boil and simmer 25 minutes. Remove the bag and as soon as it cools enough to apply, place it on the afftected spot. Put a hot-pack or a hot water bottle over the compress to keep it hot and leave on for 20-25 minut IngredientsTou Gu Cao - Herba Speranakiae seu Impatentis;Shen Jin Cao - Herba cum Radice Lycopopdi Clavati;Hai Tong Pi - Cortex Erythrinae Variegatae);Wu Jia Pi (Cortex Radicis Acanthopanacis);Ai Ye (Folium Artemisiae);Jing Jie (Herba seu Flos Schizonepetae Tenuifoliae);Fang Feng (Radix Ledebouriellae Sesloidis);Dan Shen (Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae);Wei Ling Xian (Radix Clematidis Chinensis);Hua Jiao (Pericarpium Zanthoxyli Bungeani);Hong Hua (Flos Carthami Tinctorii);Ru Xiang (Gummi Oilbanum);Bai Zhi (Radix Angelicae);Mu Gua (Fructus Chaenomelis Lagenariae) SymptomatologyStiffness and limitation of joint movement Western SymptomatologySecond stage sinew damage
