Blood-Activating Herbs

All herbs with the action of improving circulation and dissipating obstructions are known as blood-activating herbs. They are spicy, bitter and salty in flavour, and warm in nature, with effect on the liver and heart channels. Blood-activating herbs have haemodynamic and painkilling effects, and also relieve blood stasis. They are recommended for those suffering pain and numbness, darkened blood with clots, maculae on the tongue and related ailments.
