094 - Clear Runways (Xiao Huo Luo Pian)

Category:Psyche, nerves, insomnia, musculoskeletal, joints, pain relief.

Use of recipe according to traditional Chinese medicine:

-scatters the wind

-warms and moves the pathways and connectors

-moves Qi and blood

-clears stagnant mucus from the pathways

-breaks blood blockages and stops pain

Description:

This blend is used for so-called Bi diseases - stagnations and blockages in the musculoskeletal system that are primarily caused by three external pollutants: wind, cold and damp. These lead to blockages in the pathways, especially in the joints where the pathways are narrowed. This manifests itself in uncomfortable, often sharp pain, which very often responds to changes in weather or cold. We call it "having rheumatism". In addition to pain, another predominant symptom is stiffness, typically in the morning or when we start to move. There may also be tingling or muscle spasms, especially if the pain is severe and lasts for a long time. In addition, the blend can be used very well to manage the effects of an accident or stroke, manifested by hemiplegia (paralysis of half of the body - it was compiled for this purpose in the 11th century), similar to the so-called Wei diseases, manifested by weakness and tremors (neurodegenerative diseases). It can also be useful for microcirculation disorders in the hands and feet with tingling, such as Raynaud's syndrome or restless legs syndrome.

If we were to summarise - it is excellent to use it whenever the condition is aggravated by cold and damp, and conversely improved by applying heat or being in a warm environment - the omegas in it warm the pathways and conjunctions beautifully. Similarly, it is used for all joint diseases when the patient has a deficiency of the renal Yang (he is cold, has cold feet or hands, fear of cold).

Frankincense and myrrh are powerful herbs that break up blood blockages, and raindrop opens the pathways and promotes movement in spasms or flaccidity.
