Poor Blood Circulation, Blood Stasis (Chinese: 血瘀), or Blood Stagnation,
is an important underlying pathology of many disease processes according to traditional Chinese medicine. Circulation therapy is a natural therapy and has been commonly practiced in China for several thousand years to promote circulation, relieve pain, beautify skin and optimize health.
Treatment Process
Clients immerse their feet in medicinal herbs for 30 minutes, steam being generated from the herbal medicine will permeate the whole body and into the nose achieving specific health purposes consistent with the herbs used. Herbal medicine directly acts on blood vessels of the feet, which immediately circulate throughout the entire body, advancing blood circulation, dredging meridians, reconciling Qi and blood, expelling toxins, removing blood stasis.
