What It Supports

  • Kidney tonification and sinew strengthening: Ba Ji Tian tonifies Kidney Yang, strengthens the sinews and bones, and dispels Wind-Damp as the formula's primary Kidney Yang-tonifying and sinew-strengthening herb; Du Zhong tonifies Kidney and Liver, strengthens sinews and bones, and benefits the back and hind limbs with a specific affinity for Kidney deficiency presenting with back weakness and hindquarter deficiency; together they form the formula's Kidney Yang-tonifying and musculoskeletal-strengthening layer, directly addressing the Kidney deficiency root of the hindquarter weakness pattern
  • Qi tonification and Blood nourishment: Huang Qi tonifies Protective Qi and Spleen Qi, raises Yang, and supports immune function as the formula's primary Qi-tonifying herb; Shu Di Huang nourishes Blood, tonifies Kidney and Liver Yin, and replenishes Essence, providing the Essence and Blood foundation needed to support Kidney Yang tonification; Dang Gui nourishes Blood and invigorates Blood, supporting the Blood nourishment needed to address the Blood deficiency component that frequently accompanies Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness; Feng Hua Fen (bee pollen) provides Qi-supplementing and nutritive support, contributing additional Qi nourishment to the formula's tonification strategy
  • Qi moving, channel warming, and stagnation resolving: Gui Zhi warms the channels, moves Qi and Blood, unblocks the Yang channels, and disperses Cold; Wu Yao moves Qi, warms the channels, and disperses Cold, addressing Qi stagnation in the hindquarter channels and relieving the channel obstruction that accompanies Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness patterns; Chuan Niu Xi tonifies the Liver and Kidney, strengthens sinews and bones, invigorates Blood, and guides the formula's actions downward to the hind limbs and lower back; together they form the formula's Qi-moving and stagnation-resolving layer, ensuring the tonification strategy is supported by appropriate channel-opening and stagnation-clearing herbs

Active Ingredient TCVM Actions

Hindquarter Weakness is a nine-herb formula organized around a Kidney Yang-tonifying and sinew-strengthening pair (Ba Ji Tian, Du Zhong), a Qi-tonifying and Blood-nourishing layer (Huang Qi, Shu Di Huang, Dang Gui, Feng Hua Fen), and a Qi-moving, channel-warming, and downward-guiding layer (Gui Zhi, Wu Yao, Chuan Niu Xi):

  • Ba Ji Tian (Morinda officinalis) - Morinda root: Tonifies Kidney Yang, strengthens the sinews and bones, and dispels Wind-Damp; the formula's primary Kidney Yang-tonifying and sinew-strengthening chief herb with a specific affinity for Kidney Yang deficiency patterns presenting with hindquarter weakness, back weakness, and hind limb deficiency; Ba Ji Tian's combined Kidney Yang-tonifying and Wind-Damp-dispelling action makes it the most appropriate primary herb for musculoskeletal weakness patterns rooted in Kidney Yang deficiency
  • Du Zhong (Eucommia ulmoides) - Eucommia bark: Tonifies Kidney and Liver, strengthens sinews and bones, and benefits the back and hind limbs; the formula's Kidney and Liver-tonifying and musculoskeletal-strengthening herb, working alongside Ba Ji Tian as the primary sinew-strengthening pair with a specific affinity for Kidney deficiency presenting with lumbar and hindquarter weakness; Du Zhong's specific channel affinity for the Kidney and Liver channels governing the sinews and bones makes it the key herb for back and hindquarter deficiency patterns
  • Huang Qi (Astragalus membranaceus) - Astragalus root: Tonifies Protective Qi and Spleen Qi, raises Yang, strengthens the exterior, and supports immune function; the formula's primary Qi-tonifying herb, addressing the Qi deficiency component of the hindquarter weakness pattern and providing the Spleen Qi support needed to ensure the formula's tonifying herbs can be properly absorbed and distributed; Huang Qi's Yang-raising action also helps lift and support the hind limb and hindquarter channels
  • Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia glutinosa preparata) - Prepared rehmannia root: Nourishes Blood, tonifies Kidney and Liver Yin, and replenishes Essence; the formula's Essence and Blood-nourishing herb, providing the deep Yin and Essence nourishment that serves as the foundation for the Kidney Yang tonification strategy; Shu Di Huang's inclusion reflects the classical principle that Kidney Yang tonification is most effective when built on an adequate Yin and Essence foundation
  • Dang Gui (Angelica sinensis) - Dong quai root: Nourishes Blood, invigorates Blood, and moves Qi; the formula's Blood-nourishing and Qi-moving herb, supporting the Blood nourishment needed to prevent the formula's tonifying herbs from creating stagnation while simultaneously contributing Blood-invigorating action to address the Blood stasis component that frequently accompanies chronic Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness
  • Feng Hua Fen (Apis mellifera) - Bee pollen: Supplements Qi, nourishes the body, and provides broad nutritive support; the formula's Qi-supplementing and nutritive substance, contributing additional Qi nourishment and broad nutritive support to the formula's tonification strategy; Feng Hua Fen's inclusion reflects the classical Chinese medicine use of natural nutritive substances alongside herbal tonics to support recovery from chronic deficiency patterns
  • Gui Zhi (Cinnamomum cassia) - Cinnamon twig: Warms and unblocks the Yang channels, moves Qi and Blood, disperses Cold, and harmonizes the Ying and Wei levels; the formula's channel-warming and Yang-unblocking herb, ensuring the tonification strategy is supported by appropriate channel warming to address the Cold accumulation and channel obstruction that accompany Kidney Yang deficiency patterns in the hind limbs and hindquarter channels
  • Wu Yao (Lindera aggregata) - Lindera root: Moves Qi, warms the channels, and disperses Cold; the formula's Qi-moving and channel-warming herb with a specific affinity for Cold and Qi stagnation in the lower body and hind limb channels; Wu Yao's strong Qi-moving and Cold-dispersing action in the lower body channels makes it particularly suited to addressing the Qi stagnation and channel obstruction in the hindquarter and hind limb channels underlying the weakness and deficiency pattern
  • Chuan Niu Xi (Cyathula officinalis) - Cyathula root: Tonifies the Liver and Kidney, strengthens sinews and bones, invigorates Blood, and guides the formula's actions downward to the hind limbs and lower back; the formula's downward-guiding and Blood-invigorating herb, ensuring the formula's Kidney-tonifying and Qi-moving actions are directed specifically to the hind limbs, lower back, and hindquarter channels where the weakness pattern is manifesting; Chuan Niu Xi's guiding action to the lower body makes it an essential directional herb in formulas targeting Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness

Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions is Hindquarter Weakness used for in TCVM?

Hindquarter Weakness is indicated for dogs and horses with TCVM patterns of Kidney deficiency with Qi deficiency and hindquarter weakness, where insufficient Kidney Yang and Qi have impaired the Kidney's ability to nourish and support the sinews, bones, and channels governing the back, hind limbs, and hindquarter. Holistic veterinarians frequently prescribe it as a foundational TCVM musculoskeletal support formula for Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness patterns. No contraindications and no warnings are listed for this formula. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate TCVM pattern diagnosis before recommending Hindquarter Weakness.

How is Hindquarter Weakness administered, and what are the dosing guidelines?

Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. For horses using the 600g powder, the guideline is 10g to 20g (approximately 1.5 to 3 large scoops) twice daily as a top dressing on feed, or as directed by your veterinarian; the large scoop holds approximately 7g. For dogs using the 600g powder, the guideline is 0.5g per 10 to 20 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; the small scoop holds approximately 2g. May be used as needed for up to 6 months, or as directed by your veterinarian.

What is Bu Qi Zi Yin Tang, and what is the TCVM rationale for Hindquarter Weakness?

Bu Qi Zi Yin Tang (Tonify Qi and Nourish Yin Decoction) is the classical formula underlying Jing Tang's Hindquarter Weakness, designed to address the combined Kidney deficiency and Qi deficiency pattern underlying hindquarter weakness and hind limb deficiency in animals. Its TCVM rationale is built around simultaneously tonifying Kidney Yang to strengthen the Kidney's ability to nourish the sinews, bones, and hindquarter channels (Ba Ji Tian, Du Zhong), supplementing Qi and nourishing Blood and Essence to provide the energetic and nutritive foundation for the Kidney Yang tonification strategy (Huang Qi, Shu Di Huang, Dang Gui, Feng Hua Fen), and moving Qi and warming the channels to ensure that the tonification strategy does not create stagnation and that the formula's actions are guided specifically to the lower body and hindquarter channels (Gui Zhi, Wu Yao, Chuan Niu Xi). This three-layer structure, tonifying both Kidney Yang and Qi, nourishing Blood and Essence, and moving Qi to prevent stagnation, reflects the classical TCVM understanding that chronic hindquarter weakness in animals involves deficiency at multiple levels and that tonification without movement leads to incomplete pattern resolution.

Why does Hindquarter Weakness include Feng Hua Fen (bee pollen) alongside herbal ingredients?

Feng Hua Fen (bee pollen, Apis mellifera) is included in Hindquarter Weakness as a Qi-supplementing and nutritive substance that provides broad nutritive support alongside the formula's herbal tonics. In classical Chinese medicine, natural nutritive substances such as bee products, animal tissues, and mineral substances are frequently combined with herbal tonics in formulas addressing chronic deficiency patterns, reflecting the understanding that deep Kidney deficiency and Qi deficiency patterns benefit from both targeted herbal actions and broad nutritive nourishment. Feng Hua Fen's role in this formula is to supplement Qi and provide the nutritive substrate needed to support the recovery from chronic Kidney deficiency and hindquarter weakness. Note that this formula contains bee pollen, an animal-derived ingredient; if your animal has known sensitivities to bee products, please inform your authorizing veterinarian before use.

Amazing results for my dog

The concentrated hindquarter weakness formula has produced really good results for my dog and we are only one week in thus far.

D, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about Jing Tang Hindquarter Weakness. I am excited to hear this success story because herbal formulas often take longer than a week to work due to their gentle nature. Thanks for your willingness to try Chinese herbs and for spreading the good news! - Sincerely, Samantha

I don’t feel there has been any help to his hindquarters

Hi Tracy! We are sorry to hear Hindquarter Weakness hasn't been helping! If you have been giving this herbal formula to your pet for awhile, please check with your vet if you haven't already done so. Often, herbal formulas need to be adjusted. There are hundreds of herbal formulas available, so it's really important your vet authorizes the most appropriate formula for the Eastern signs your pet is displaying in order for it to work properly. If you haven't been giving it very long, it's possible it may need more time to start working. Since herbs are gentle, they take awhile to reach maximum effectiveness (often a month after starting).
