Diffuse [Shoulder] Pain Decoction (Juan Bi Tang)

 

Details of Diffuse Pain Decoction
gui.zhi.963 Diffuse [Shoulder] Pain Decoction (Juan Bi Tang)

Cinnamon twig is a great blood mover which treats pain.

Computer use giving you neck and shoulder tension?

Computer use often leads to neck and shoulder tension, muscle spasm, and pain. Just one of those things that iron age Chinese healers never had to deal with.

The Diffuse Pain Decoction was originally conceived of addressing the painful influences of exposure to wind or damp weather. Back in the 1170s, that was a pretty good idea, well before we enjoyed so much control over our environment.

However, there are modern sources for windy or damp pain that arise from internal causes such as work stress or excessive computer use.

bola.full Los Angeles Zhong Yi, Al Stone

What’s a zhong yi? In China, that means simply a doctor of Chinese internal medicine*. An acupuncturist is like the Western medicine surgeon, while the zhong yi is more like the pharmacist or the internal medicine doctor. The zhong yi and the acupuncturist speak the same language and some of our treatment principles overlap somewhat, but the tools we use are different. I use herbs exclusively. At EagleHerbs.com we provide these herbs in convenient flavor crystals optionally placed in capsules.

That’s what I do. Chinese internal medicine*. You don’t have to be Chinese of course, it works for everybody equally well. :)

There are three ways to interact with me.

zhongyi.bullet.1 Los Angeles Zhong Yi, Al StoneUsing the free consultation form. The email response you will be sent (usually within 24 hours) provides links to specific formulas at this site that can help you regulate, support, encourage and moderate your body’s structures and functions. It’s quick, it’s free. It’s available 24/7. What’re you waiting for?

zhongyi.bullet.2 Los Angeles Zhong Yi, Al StoneThe telephone consultation.

*There are oodles of laws that prevent me from claiming to be a doctor or using medicine to help patients. These two terms (doctor and medicine) are used on this page only for the sake of clarity and should not be taken to mean that Al Stone is a physician using drugs to fix diseases. Only “doctors” using “medicine” can do that. Al Stone has a doctorate in Oriental medicine and uses herbs to balance, regulate, support and promote health.

Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)

 

Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)
huang.qin .962 Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)

Huang qin is one of the few herbs that enter the so-called "pivot" of the body.

Detoxifying since 220 AD. Huang Qin Tang (Scutellaria Decoction) is a simple modification of the #1 formula in Shang Han Lun style Chinese herbalism. The Shang Han Lun (Treatise on Cold Injury) is one of the key Chinese medicine “bibles” (or “classics” as the Chinese say). Huang Qin Tang is pronounced “wong chin tong“.

About this formula:
Recently studied as a digestive aid called PHY906 (Huang Qin Tang) in those undergoing Western drug therapy.

Huang Qin Tang was traditionally used for detoxifying the intestines when resulting in burning crampy diarrhea with a strong odor. However it was not assumed that this diarrhea was due to an infection in the intestines, rather a toxicity issue in other locations of the body, specifically the “Shao Yang pivot.”

The FDA frowns on dietary supplement marketers making medical claims but this review of many research studies talks at length about how Chinese medicine herbs are being studied in the treatment of cancer. It also has a lot of good things to say about Huang Qin Tang.
