Common questions

What is Chinaherb Relief Vertigo?+

It is the classical Chinese formula Ban Xia Bai Zhu Tian Ma Tang, from Dongyuan's Collection of Ten Books published in 1529. In TCM terms it resolves Phlegm, calms Liver Wind, strengthens the Spleen and removes Dampness.

What is Relief Vertigo traditionally used for?+

It is the traditional formula for dizziness, vertigo and headaches that Chinese medicine attributes to Phlegm disturbing the head — often with a heavy, wrapped-up feeling, cloudy thinking, nausea or chest tightness alongside.

How does TCM explain dizziness with nausea and a heavy head?+

In the TCM view, when the Spleen's function falters, turbid Phlegm rises with Liver Wind and clouds the head, while blocking the Qi in the chest — which is why the dizziness so often arrives with chest fullness, queasiness and difficulty thinking clearly. Relief Vertigo addresses that whole pattern rather than one symptom.

How do I take it?+

Check the label for directions, and speak to your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, nursing or on medication. Dizziness has many possible causes, so it is always worth having persistent symptoms properly checked by your healthcare provider.

Tags: , , , , 


Relief Vertigo originates from Li Dongyuan’s “Dongyuan’s Collection of Ten Books” published in 1529. It is a special formula for headache and dizziness caused by Phlegm. Due to failure of Spleen functions, turbidity Phlegm priming Liver Wind, Liver Wind and Phlegm disturbing the head and blinding the brain, this leads to dizziness, vertigo, headache, migraine. Turbidity Phlegm blocks the Qi; therefore, headaches and dizziness may also be accompanied by chest tightness and nausea. The effect of the formulation is resolving Phlegm and calming the Liver Wind, also strengthening Spleen and removing Dampness.

A modern application is often used for those with Phlegm, such as dizziness and vertigo, chronic headache, migraine, Menier’s disease, autogenic vertigo, neurological vertigo and epilepsy caused by disturbance of the head by Liver Wind and Phlegm.

 

Case:

“A female patient, 70 years old, with vertigo and headache for 10 days. The Western medical diagnosis was “Menier’s Syndrome“. She had Panic, vomiting, salivation, palpitations, anorexia, sticky mouth, tingling tongue, repeated urges to change clothes, small and soft stools, white greasy tongue and weak soft pulse. Diagnosed as Wind Phlegm offence and lack of Qi. After using Relief Vertigo for a few days, the symptoms reduced greatly. After taking it for another few days, the patient had no more symptoms and was cured.”

 

 

CHRONIC HEADACHE AND MIGRAINE

Typical symptoms:

A migraine attack can cause pulsating and throbbing headaches, lasting between a few hours and up to three days. They are usually on one side of the head and accompanying symptoms are nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, as well as sensitivity to light, noise and smell. Migraines can occur with or without the so-called “aura”. This precedes the headaches and is usually caused by visual disturbances. A combination of factors such as lifestyle, diet and family predisposition can lead to a migraine attack with intense headaches.

Chronic headaches due to excessive muscle tension can be caused by persistent incorrect strain or psychological factors. Tension headaches are more likely to cause pulling pain or pressure pain, severe restrictions in everyday life and high psychological stress, as well as high internal tension.

Disease description:

Blood pressure is the force that a person’s blood exerts against the walls of their blood vessels.

Currently, blood pressure values up to 139/89 mmHg are considered normal or high normal, while 120/80 mmHg are classified as optimal. Often, with no warning signs at first and developing insidiously, hypertension damages organs after a short time, because the small blood vessels are particularly affected. Later on, general symptoms may occur at first, such as dizziness, headaches, palpitations, shortness of breath on exertion, nervousness and sometimes even sleep disturbances.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

The causes of hypertension in Chinese Medicine are emotional disorders, eating disorders, labour and rest disorders. Long-term emotional depression and anger cause Liver Qi Stagnation and further cause Liver Fire, which consumes Yin fluid. Overeating fat and sweet, thick taste hurts the Spleen and Stomach, gathers Dampness and produces Phlegm. Phlegm disturbs and blocks the head, causing Phlegm-type hypertension.
