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 dampness. This obstruction and invasion may occur due to many factors including trauma, prolonged exposure to wind and dampness, 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 re-establishing the flow of energy within the joint, normal motion is maintained.
