Guest guest Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Don't forget " dit da jau. " In martial arts di dat jow (commoners spelling and where you will find the most info, if you want to look it up)is mostly used to treat the MINOR traumas caused during iron training (palm, shirt, vest, arm, leg, finger whatever) or from practicing break falls on the ground. There are also different formulas depending on what stage of your training. You'll notice that most of the Shoalin styles have there own custom formulas. For real trauma like behing hit by a weapon, sprained/strained ankle, knee, we used the three yellows as it is very cooling.

It looks like this would be handy to keep around for day to day bumps and bruises due to home and work accidents as well. Not to limit it to the intentional injuries due to " sports. " Does it keep in the re-closed container once opened? -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 The following is from a book which should be on every acupuncturist's bookshelf: A Tooth from the Tiger's Mouth By Tom Bisio Although each kung fu school prides itself on having a unique formula that is superior to all others, most trauma liniments are fairly similar. All contain ingredients that stop pain, reduce swelling and inflammation, and disperse stagnant qi and blood. The following recipe makes a good-quality trauma liniment that is effective for treating a wide variety of sports injuries. In this formula, cooling and warming herbs are carefully balanced so that the cooling herbs reduce inflammation and swelling as effectively as ice, while the warming herbs kill pain, promote circulation, and break up accumulations of blood and fluids. Trauma Liniment – External Use Only 12 grams Da Huang 12 grams Zhi Zi 12 grams Hong Hua 12 grams Huang Bai 12 grams Mo Yao 12 grams Ru Xiang 12 grams Xue Jie 12 grams Lu Lu Tong 12 grams Dang Gui Wei This recipe makes one gallon of trauma liniment. The herbs will have already been dried or otherwise prepared by the Chinese pharmacy or herb supplier. Simply put the herbs in a jar with one gallon of vodka or rice wine (80-100 proof). --- In Chinese Medicine , " acupuncturebeverlyhills " <acupuncturebeverlyhills wrote: > > > Don't forget " dit da jau.
