Description
Subdue Head Wind is one of the few Chinese herbal formulas designed to treat a variety of acute headaches occurring in all areas of the head. It is primarily used as a "branch," or symptomatic, treatment for acute headaches, but can easily be blended with "root," or constitutional formulas in treatment protocols for even greater efficacy. Its strength lies in the chief herb, Sichuan lovage rhizome (Chuan xiong), and a blend of ingredients that address headache pain in specific regions of the head. (Kan Herb Company)
