Soaking feet with traditional Chinese medicine has a long history in China. It can not only promote blood circulation, but also fully absorb traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, dredge bones and joints, improve water distribution and blood circulation in the body, and play a role in getting rid of diseases, caring skin and beautifying. Foot is called the "second heart" of human beings, and it is a mysterious "organ" containing infinite treasure in human body. The narrow space of the foot palm brings together half the meridians of the body, which is the beginning of the Sanyin meridian and the end of the Sanyang meridian, and is closely related to the five internal organs. The cuticle of calf skin is thin, and it is rich in blood vessels, nerves and muscles, so it absorbs drugs well, so we often take the calf and foot as the parts of local bath.
Here, I would like to introduce a foot-soaking prescription, which can dispel wind and remove dampness, promote blood circulation and dredge collaterals, dispel cold and relieve pain, especially for patients with joint pain and general discomfort. Specifically, 30g of sinomenine, 30g of speranskia tuberculata, 30g of mirabilite, 0g of asarum10g, 0g of safflower15g, and 0g of mugwort leaf15g are soaked in water.
Among the prescriptions, Sinomenium sinomenium was first recorded in Records of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which has the effects of expelling wind and dampness, dredging meridians and facilitating urination, and is mainly used for rheumatism, arthralgia, paralysis and itching. Caulis et Folium Gaultheriae Yunnanensis was first recorded in Lingmi Dan Yao Jian, which can dispel wind and remove dampness, detoxify and relieve pain. It is often used to relieve rheumatic joint pain and treat sores and swelling. Asarum is warm and pungent, which can dispel cold, dispel wind and relieve pain, and has a good effect on rheumatism and arthralgia. Carthamus tinctorius is pungent and warm in taste, and its qi is fragrant and dispersed. When it enters the blood, it has the effects of promoting blood circulation, dredging channels, removing blood stasis and relieving pain, and is mainly used for treating chest obstruction, heartache, blood stasis, traumatic injury, joint pain, paralysis due to apoplexy, and macula. "Drug Meaning" records: "safflower, which is good at dredging meridians, is a qi medicine in the blood, which can purge and replenish, and each has its own wonderful meaning." Folium Artemisiae Argyi is warm, bitter and pungent, good at regulating qi and blood, expelling cold and dampness, warming meridians, stopping bleeding and preventing miscarriage. It can be used externally to warm meridians, dispel cold and remove dampness, and is mainly used to treat cold and dampness and other symptoms.
