Great Mender Teapills, The

Jin Gu Die Shang Wan

The Great Mender Teapills or Jin Gu Die Shang Wan assists with Qi and Blood stagnation due to Die Da (traumatic injury) presenting with pain, redness, swelling, bruising, bleeding. The Great Mender Teapills can be used to dramatically enhance the healing of sprains, strains, broken bones, slow healing wounds or injuries. Also, if you suffer from chronic stabbing pain especially in the chest area [between your ribs] and sharp epigastric or pelvic pain you may benefit from this formula. As the name states, this is not only a formula to decrease traumatically caused injuries, but also a formula to assist with the rebuilding of healthy tissue, especially in critical areas.

The Great Mender Teapills can also be used for post-surgical procedures to help relive pain by moving blood stasis and encouraging new and healthy tissue growth, even with bone breakage. Chinese Medicines’ point of view on post-traumatic healing requires your body’s area of insult to not stay still or stagnant, but to move out the old and damaged blood, fluids and cells so as to encourage new and healthy tissue growth.

The Great Mender Teapills works by invigorating the Blood, dispels blood stasis, strengthening tendons and bones, stops bleeding, alleviating pain and promoting regeneration of damaged tissues.
