Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Does anyone have experience in treating lower-jiao disorders by introducing herbal decoctions through the vagina as a douche or into the rectum as an enema? I'd like to know more about the effect of administering herbs this way. Could someone point me to an article, book or website that might provide some guidance, and, more importantly, that can document any clinical research or data. Thanks for the help.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Please do send it, along with a little info about your teacher. Thank you, Jonah Mon, 27 Jun 2005 12:33:53 +0200 " " <saudelligabriele R: HERBAL DOUCHES / ENEMAS I have something about it, but in italian language. It is a part of the lessons of my teacher, dead in 1998, Riccardo Morandotti and it concerns the clinical approach to Clinical Gynaecology from a western point of of view (as diagnostics) in a TCM treatment. If it could be helpful, I can send you or to the list the lessons (Word); I repeat that are written in italian language, but by means of Babel it wouldn't be impossible to understand. -- Email.it, the professional e-mail, gratis per te: http://www.email.it/f Sponsor: Iscriviti GRATUITAMENTE: ci sono 5 Euro che ti aspettano .e decine di corsi... * Clicca qui: http://adv.email.it/cgi-bin/foclick.cgi?mid=3416 & d=28-6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 I have used herbal douches with great success with women for vaginal yeast and bacterial infections. These were damp heat resolving formulas such as longdanxie gan tang. ITM has a raw herb packet called shen bai wash which is great. And Life Rising has a granule powder called Vulva soak which can be used as a douche. I have read research on retention enemas used with success for blockage of fallopian tubes in " Diagnosis of Sterility and its TCM Treatment " by Jin Weixin, SHandong science and technology press (isbn 7-5331-2339-5). Also, Jane Lyttleton and Will Mcleans' Internal medicine series of 2 volumes contains scripts for retention enemas for damp heat and blood stasis bowel issues. I used these in a patient with ulcerative colitis, but did not have much results in this particular patient. Hope that helps..

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 I have also been curious about using herbal enemas/douches. The main reason that I haven't used them is that all of my information on them is described with instructions to use raw herbs. Since my pharmacy is granules, I have not known how to use them. Anyone with experience using granules to make douches/enemas? I realize that it may be as simple as making the tea as usual and then using it internally, but haven't known for sure.
