Ice Dragon ‘Better Than Ice’ Salve (San Huang San) is ideal for anything you would apply ice to. Relieves the pain, inflammation, and swellings from strains, sprains, and other acute injuries with redness or heat.
Use this instead of ice and see the difference!
Historically called ‘Three Yellows Powder’ because the three most important ingredients are a deep golden-yellow color, is a famous salve effective for acute injuries with swelling, pain and redness. Used instead of ice by martial artists and athletes for centuries because ice inhibits natural healing and can cause serious problems down the road, such as tendon/muscle weakness as well as susceptibility to reinjury.
The herbs in Ice Dragon are very cooling in nature, so it’s perfect for reducing inflammation, swelling, and most importantly pain from injury. Unlike ice packs, which prevents the needed circulation of blood into the area and removal of old and toxic cellular fluids, Ice Dragon increases local circulation while cooling the inflammation and reducing the pain and swelling, thus accelerating natural healing.
Directions: FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY. Gently apply small amount of salve onto the skin to cover the affected area(s). Rub in gently until absorbed. Repeat 3-4 times per day or after bathing.
For more severe injuries, coat the area thickly with San Huang San and cover with gauze or a paper towel and fix in place with an elastic bandage or gauze roll. Keep the bandage loose enough to allow good circulation but tight enough to ensure it is snug against the skin.
Ingredients: Cocoes oleum organicum, local beeswax, rhei radix et rhizome, scutellariae radix, phellodendri cortex, taraxaci herba, gardenia fructus, corydalis rhizome, coptidis rhizoma
