Description:
The liver as an organ is considered the "general" of the body. It ensures that everything in the body flows smoothly - Qi, blood, all other bodily fluids, as well as emotions. And it is these, known as the seven wounds, that cause Liver blockages most often. Depending on how severe they are or how great the level of stress is, the Liver is more or less blocked. Therefore, all the symptoms that appear are very variable just according to the current state of the Liver and its ability to clear. In women, their patency also varies according to the phase of the menstrual cycle. Before menstruation, there is what is called physiological stagnation, when their blood fills up with the extraordinary Chong Mai pathway, waiting to see if the woman gets pregnant or if menstruation starts. If the Liver tends to block, the stagnation is more than physiological and the so-called premenstrual syndrome appears. How the Liver can influence the function of all organs and the flow of all vital substances, and how it is itself dependent on the degree of stress and emotion, is the cause of the so-called psychosomatic diseases or somatization of stress. Blockages arise in the body at various levels.
In women, they typically manifest themselves in localizations such as the thyroid, breasts (soreness before menstruation and various formations), chest (difficulty getting breath, pain and pressure in the lower ribs), digestive problems, and stagnation in the lower radiant (cysts, fibroids, endometriosis). All exacerbated by emotions, stress and around menstruation.
The basic function of the Chai Hu Shu Gan Tang blend is precisely to clear the Liver, which then benefits circulation, but also to harmonize the blood and stop pain. In the Jia Jian modification, it is enriched with herbs that further enhance the ability of this blend to release blockages in the very area of the breasts that cause them to be swollen, sensitive to painful, especially before menstruation but also beyond. And on top of that, the formula also soothes and relaxes beautifully.
