According to our herbalist at East Earth Trade Winds, the Chinese word "zheng gu" means "bonesetting", "shui" means water or liquid. Zheng Gu Shui literally means "bonesetting water" which is a reference to its use for treating external injuries.

Futhermore, our East Earth Trade Winds herbalist's research indicates the medicinal effects of the herbs are as follows:

Polygonum cusidatum rhizome (Bushy Knotweed) has an excellent ability to relieve pain and is very useful for sports or traumatic injuries. Research has shown it to have analgesic and antiinflammatory properties as well as being a hemostatic.

Camphor Wood (Radix Crotonis crassifolii, Chinese Ji Gu Xiang) increases local circulation and relieves pain.

Fragrant Angelica (Bai Zhi) is anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antispasmodic (treats muscle spasms and cramps).

Moghania (Chinese: Yi Tiao Gen) is used for musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, soreness, and tendon and bone pain.

Zedoary rhizome or curcuma (a different species than Turmeric) is an anti-inflammatory and is especially helpful for painful shoulders.

San-Qi Ginseng (AKA Tian Qi) is a famous hemostatic herb in Chinese medicine. It is good for treating external injuries such as bruises, swelling, inflammation and pain. It is very good for traumatic injuries.
