Saint Apothecary
I’d like to introduce you to a new topical product that is available in my office. My clients are loving it.
This topical liniment was inspired by a 500 year old Chinese herbal liniment, Zheng Gu Shui. It’s main purpose is to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. It is used for sports injuries, joint pain, spinal pain, muscle and ligament pain, bruising, sprains, broken bones, cuts and insect bites, skin conditions, infections, etc.
Zheng Gu Shui is a well-known Chinese liniment but I’ve not been confident in the ingredients, especially with the bright red color. I’m not into applying Red #40 onto my skin or yours. I was so excited when a colleague told me about Evil Bone Water. I was like, “What? Are you calling herbal decoctions Evil?” It turns out that an acupuncturist in Georgia (the state) makes a Zheng Gu Shui that I can stand behind.
