At the age of 25, he cured a critical illness that even renowned doctors such as Gao Luxuan and Mao Xiange were powerless against, making him a medical expert in modern Chinese medicine. Advocating communication between the East and the West, learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and combining years of clinical experience with the experience of integrating the East and the West, the book "Medical Zhongzhong Canxi Lu" was written.
There are many effective prescriptions created in the book, many of which have origins, follow the classics without being stuck in the past, and adapt without losing rules. Just like making cars, pioneers have already laid the foundation, and later generations have created trucks, off-road vehicles, sedans, buses, and even autonomous vehicles according to their needs.
The best foundation of traditional Chinese medicine is undoubtedly the Han Dynasty's Zhongjing Formula. Many of the prescriptions in the "Medical Zhong Zhong Shen Xi Lu" are newly created based on the original intention of Master Zhongjing.
This medical expert who is good at adaptability and flexible use of formulas is the famous physician of the Republic of China, Zhang Xichun.
The activation of Zhang Xichun's thinking can be transferred to the prescription, and these two famous prescriptions can serve as representatives:
Huoluo Xiaoling Dan and Huoluo Quhan Tang.
The latter is a modified version based on the former.
Composition of Huoluo Xiaoling Dan: 15g Angelica sinensis, 15g Danshen, 15g Shengming frankincense, 15g Shengming myrrh
Danshen in the formula promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis, while Danggui and blood supplement blood. The combination of the two herbs can unblock meridians and relieve pain, while also nourishing blood. It is widely used for various syndromes of blood stasis and deficiency.
Frankincense is fragrant and easy to move, with great ability to promote ventilation and relieve stagnation. It can also promote blood circulation and relieve pain. Mainly promoting qi circulation and blood circulation.
No medicine disperses blood and stasis, reduces swelling and relieves pain. Long term use can relax the fascia and promote blood circulation. Mainly focused on promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis.
The combination of two medicines, balancing qi and blood, is a good partner for unblocking meridians, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain. Not only does it circulate qi and blood in the meridians, but it can also be used to circulate any stagnation of qi and blood in the organs.
The formula consists of four herbs, which promote blood circulation, unblock meridians, remove blood stasis, and relieve pain. It is widely used for various types of pain caused by blood stasis and blockage. Internal injuries such as blood stasis, chest and abdominal pain, limb and arm pain, etc., are effective regardless of whether they are caused by cold, heat, qi stagnation, or blood stagnation.
It is currently used for patients with coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, ectopic pregnancy, cerebral thrombosis, sciatica, and other conditions related to qi and blood stasis and obstructed meridians.
Huoluo Quhan Tang, hence the name Siyi, has the effect of activating collaterals and dispelling coldness. It is made by adding Huangqi, Guizhi Jian, Hangshao, and ginger on the basis of Huoluo Xiaoling Dan. Treating cold in the meridians and causing twitching in the limbs.
Any twitching, pulling, or stretching of limbs that cannot be controlled autonomously belongs to the category of convulsions.
Composition: 15g Huangqi, 12g Danggui, 12g Danshen, 6g Guizhijian, 9g Hangshao, 12g Shengmingruxiang, 12g Shengmingmyrrh, and 9g ginger. For those who are particularly cold, add 9g of dried ginger.
There are two significant characteristics of our medication,
One of the characteristics of Zhang Xichun's medication is the abundance of raw materials. Try to use its original purity without damaging its essence. For example, frankincense and myrrh are most suitable for raw use, but if stir fried, their circulation power will be greatly reduced.
The second is to be good at using medicine. Zhang Xichun believes that "those who make good use of soldiers must have a deep understanding of their abilities, and then be able to defeat the enemy. Those who make good use of medicine must also have a deep understanding of their medicinal properties, and then be able to use them to treat diseases. For example, the combination of frankincense and myrrh, as well as Huangqi and Danggui, are commonly used by later medical practitioners.
The meridians treated by our formula are affected by cold, and the root cause is insufficient Qi and blood, wind and cold obstructing the meridians. The cold syndrome occurs in the meridians, not in the organs, and the meridians mostly run between the muscles. Therefore, we use Huangqi to warm and nourish the muscles, making their body strong and vigorous, and enabling them to overcome evil. Danggui nourishes blood and blood, helps Huangqi Qi to promote blood circulation, and promotes blood circulation and qi sufficiency.
Others are also elites in warming and unblocking meridians.
Danshen, raw frankincense, and myrrh have been mentioned before their use.
The tip of the cinnamon branch is the most tender part of the cinnamon tree, and the growth of the cinnamon branch continues from it, with extremely strong vitality. Its nature is sweet and warm, good at dispelling wind and cold. Sweating to relieve muscle tension, warming the meridians, and promoting yang and qi transformation are all excellent skills. Can receive medication to the painful area to remove phlegm and coagulation stagnation between limbs.
Sheng Hang Shao is sweet, sour, and cool. It can smooth the blood vessels, relieve liver qi pain, soothe the middle, dispel evil blood and drive away evil blood, and tighten yin to stop sweating.
Guizhijian is combined with Hangshao. Guizhijian is good at treating external wind and cold deficiency syndrome, promoting Hangshao circulation and regulating blood vessels, and protecting the internal yin. Two medicines, one warm and one cold, one astringent and one dispersing, balance internal and external factors, regulate the body to a state of yin-yang balance.
Ginger is warm and effective in dispelling coldness, preventing nausea and opening phlegm, and treating the nine orifices.
Multi drug combination, nourishing qi and promoting blood circulation.
Huangqi replenishes qi and generates yang, while Danggui and Danshen nourish blood and promote blood circulation, removing blood stasis and unblocking collaterals. Raw frankincense and raw myrrh can promote blood circulation, disperse blood stasis, and relieve pain. Sheng Hang Shao nourishes the blood and keeps the internal guard, slow and urgent. Guizhi Jian and Ginger Xin Wen Jie Table. Assist Huangqi in replenishing qi and generating yang.
Working together, not only can it dispel cold, but it can also dispel wind, which is the way blood and wind naturally dissipate.
As soon as the wind and cold pass, the blood becomes lively again. How can the convulsions not stop?
In modern times, Huoluo Quhan Decoction is widely used to treat sciatica, thromboangiitis obliterans, atherosclerosis obliterans, peripheral vasospasm diseases such as Raynaud's disease, diabetes foot, etc.
There is a saying in the folk that "meridians and collaterals are connected to eliminate all diseases", and the use of these two active meridian formulas by famous doctor Zhang Xichun can be regarded as the best proof.
