Cang Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis) dries dampness and Huang Bai (Cortex Phellodendri) clears damp-heat in the lower parts of the body. These two herbs have an excellent effect to treat pain in the lower half of the body, as in the classic formula Er Miao San (Two-Marvel Powder). Qiang Huo (Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii), Du Huo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis), and Sang Zhi (Ramulus Mori) have antirheumatic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic functions. They remove painful obstruction by expelling wind, damp and heat in the upper and lower body. Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) and Zhi Mu (Radix Anemarrhenae) have anti-inflammatory functions to clear heat and reduce painful swelling sensation of the joints. Yi Yi Ren (Semen Coicis) and Fen Fang Ji (Radix Stephaniae Tetandrae) are diuretics that reduce swelling of the joints. Wei Ling Xian (Radix Clematidis), Luo Shi Teng (Caulis Trachelospermi) and Dang Gui Wei (Extremitas Radicis Angelicae Sinensis) have Antirheumatic and blood-invigorating effects to clear the channels and collaterals therefore enhancing the flexibility and integrity of the joints. Xi Xian Cao (Herba Siegesbeckiae), Lu Lu Tong (Fructus Liquidambaris), and Qin Jiao (Radix Gentianae Macrophyllae) dredge the channels and scour residual blood stagnation. They are often used in wind disorders including paralysis or hemiplegia. Wu Jia Pi (Cortex Acanthopanacis) strengthens sinews and bones and helps relieve chronic pain.
"Where there is pain, there is stagnation. When stagnation is cleared, so will the pain".
