History
Weinsch Flexible Joints Extra Strong is based on the classical formula Xiao Huo Luo Dan, first recorded in the Qian Jin Yao Fang (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) by Sun Si-Miao during the Tang Dynasty. The name means “Minor Invigorate the Collaterals Pill,” referring to its purpose of unblocking the channels and dispelling wind, cold, and dampness. Originally used to treat post-stroke symptoms like hemiplegia and numbness, it later became widely used for chronic joint pain, arthritis, and cold-type muscular pain. Its warming and activating properties make it ideal for conditions involving pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility due to cold and damp obstruction.
