Promoting Regeneration by Nourishing the Kidney and Strengthening Bones



    The Chinese Medicine believes that it is necessary to nourish the kidney, because the kidney can nourish the bone by generating marrow (The kidney stores up the essential qi, the essential qi generates the marrow and the marrow nourishes the bones). That means the development as well as deficiency (such as the loss of calcium and osteoporosis) of bones is closely related with the kidney. Healthy kidneys with normal functions will provide bones with necessary nourishment for their growth; while the consolidation of bones will be discouraged by weak kidneys, and consequent results such as fracture and difficulty in regeneration will be caused. In orienting transdermal therapy invented by Chongqing Yiqing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, special medicines can act in the infected area directly; after absorption by the skin and penetration of the medicine, the effective components may participate in systematic circulation, which can nourish the kidney and other organs, improve the essence and stimulate blood circulation. Medicine capable of nourishing the kidney can exert an obvious impact on the development of bone tissues: it can activate osteoblasts and increase their quantity.

    Some experts have put out that medicines tonifying the kidney can improve the reticuloendothelial system, maintain the steadiness of immunity and increase the non-specific immunity. The endocrine system has much to do with the growth, development and regeneration of bones. In particular, the adrenal cortex hormone, growth hormone and sex hormone will influence the growth and rehabilitation of bones directly. Therefore, the experts of the hospital emphasize that the key to the treatment of chronic bone diseases is the nourishment of the kidney. During the orienting transdermal therapy, patients must take different medicines according to their own conditions. In this way, an optimal effect will be achieved by the combination of external and internal application.
