Alternative Names Cold Limbs Powder Cold Extremities Powder Frigid Extremities Powder si ni san szu ni san Counterflow Cold Powder sigyaku san shigyakusan Shigyaku-san 四逆散 しぎゃくさん TJ35; TJ-35; TJ 35 sì nì sǎn wán 四逆散丸 This is the base formula for liver qi constraint/ stagnation. It forms the root of Xiao Yao Wan and its more popular younger sister: Jia Wei Xiao Yao Wan. The four extremities coldness is known as (a mild case) jue/ reversal where the yang is constrained from getting to the limbs. Benefits relaxes tense muscles that cause a sense of dull stuffiness in the upper abdomen. regulates sleeping for those having difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. As the English name suggests- this formula is also for those who have cold hands and feet. This is caused when a person’s moods cause the “qi” to bind up and the energy can’t circulate. Energy can’t get to the extremities and so they feel cold. Clearing this bound up qi/energy also helps the moods. Ingredients Chai Hu 柴胡 hare’s ear root, thorowax root, bupleurum Radix Bupleuri [caution] Bai Shao 白芍 white peony root, peony Paeoniae Radix alba [supports pregnancy] These two herbs “spread the Liver qi (chai hu) and nourish the Liver (bai shao)” They’re often used together to harmonize the functions of the nervous system. As the name of this formula implies, it is for cold hands and feet. When the nervous system is harmonious (dare I say, less “nervous”), the blood can better circulate to the hands and feet. Zhi Shi 枳實 unripe bitter orange, chih-shih Aurantii Fructus immaturus [use caution if pregnant] This herb also helps with qi movement, but it is mostly focused on the abdomen for intestinal movements. Zhi Gan Cao 炙甘草 licorice root Radix Glycyrrhizae prep. [caution] This herb helps soften the harsh properties of the other herbs in this formula to prevent side-effects.
