Description
Fire Ox is based on the traditional Chinese Dit Da Jow herbal liniments: Shaolin Dieda Jiu 跌打酒 (also known as Dit Da Jow) and Wu Xiang Jiu 五香酒 (Five Fragrance Wine) formulas.
It uses a synergistic combination of herbs to create a balanced formula. Applied topically, it helps warm and free the flow of Qi through the acupuncture channels, disperse Cold and Blood Stasis, and support localised blood circulation when massaged into muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints. Popular with martial artists and athletes, for the post-acute stages of injury once acute inflammation has passed, it can be also used before or after exercise.
Choose Fire Ox when muscles and joints are stiff, sensitive to cold and damp weather and there is a preference for warmth. For hot, inflamed, swollen and painful joints, see ICE Ox!
(Due to UK advertising standards, the full benefits and traditional use in injury recovery can only be discussed during a direct consultation.)
