Blood circulation Heart-Yang deficiency

Heart-Yang deficiency exists in people who have been under stress and emotional distress for a long period of time, or in patients who suffer from severe heart and lung diseases. When the Yang in the chest is too weak to promote the Qi movement and blood circulation, palpitations, shortness of breath and chest pain start. 

In the condition of Spleen-Yang deficiency, Gui Zhi can be used to stimulate water metabolism and accelerate water transforming into Qi, thereby relieving edema and difficult urination due to Yang deficiency. In addition, it can particularly warm the blood, stimulate the Heart and promote blood circulation, and can treat cold hands and feet, cramp of the muscles and pain due to cold in the blood. 

When the Heart-Yang is deficient, it fails to spread the warmth in the body, promote the Qi movement in the chest or circulate the blood, and therefore cold extremities, stuffiness in the chest and severe chest pain, cold limbs and a very deep and weak pulse present. 

Gui Zhi is more pungent and has a strong moving ability. It can stimulate the Heart-Yang, expel cold and promote the blood circulation, thereby treating restlessness and palpitations due to Yang and Qi deficiency and cold in the chest. Its effect is quite quick.
