Common plaster application sites

The plaster therapy is one of the commonly used external treatment methods in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It follows the principles of TCM diagnosis and treatment, as well as the properties, effects, indications, and meridian pathways of the herbs used. This method fully mobilizes the synergistic effects of the herbs, forming a complex formula of multiple herbs to achieve optimal therapeutic effects.

Since the plaster is applied directly to the skin, and most of the herbs used in the preparation have strong aromas, combined with pungent and aromatic herbs that strongly guide the medicinal properties, they penetrate the skin, reaching the meridians, qi and blood, and organs, thereby regulating qi and blood, unblocking meridians, dispelling cold and dampness, and alleviating swelling and pain.

This plaster has the effects of dispelling wind and cold, promoting blood circulation, and alleviating pain. It is effective for rheumatic joint pain, degenerative osteoarthritis, and chronic muscle injuries.

The knee is a part of the human body located between the upper and lower legs. The main internal structures of the knee include the meniscus and four ligaments.

The meniscus is a crescent-shaped fibrocartilage tissue that cushions the vibrations of the knee joint and prevents direct friction between the two bones at the connection between the lower end of the femur and the upper end of the tibia.

Additionally, it is supported by four main ligaments. Two of these are located on the sides of the knee, known as the medial collateral ligament and lateral collateral ligament, which primarily function to prevent lateral displacement of the knee. The other two ligaments are distributed in the front and back of the knee, known as the anterior cruciate ligament and posterior cruciate ligament, which prevent anterior and posterior displacement of the knee.
