Chinese Theory:
From a Chinese perspective, joint discomfort is the result of an obstruction
of the flow of energy, or Qi (pronounced ?chee?), through the tissue
of the joint and an invasion of external pathogenic factors such as
wind, cold and damp. This obstruction and invasion may occur due to
many factors including trauma, prolonged exposure to wind and damp,
overuse of the limbs, poor genetics, etc. To maintain healthy joint
function, Chinese theory recommends a combination of herbs that moves
blood and Qi within and around the joint and expels pathogenic factors.
By reestablishing the flow of energy within the joint, normal motion
is maintained.
