| Description of Flex-Ability (Chinese Joint Flexibility Formula) 60 tabs, Planetary Herbals | |
Flex-Ability Herbal Formula
Chinese Classic to Support Joint Flexibility
Planetary Formulas Flex-Ability is a classic Chinese formula (Shujin San),
traditionally used to support the muscles, bones and normal circulation. It
has been widely used in Asia by athletes, martial artists and the elderly, to
support normal flexibility and healthy joints.
Generations of Use
The Flex-Ability formula is known in China as Shu Jin San. It was originally
created by herbalists to enhance circulation to joint and muscle tissue areas.
The formula evolved for the purpose of causing an abundance of nutrient-rich
fluids to move into these areas, nourishing the tissues. Although traditionally
used to support normal joint and muscle flexibility, today it is widely used
in Asia either before or after strenuous hard work or exercise, often by practitioners
of the martial arts and by the elderly. Originally created as a powder, Flex-Ability
was more recently developed as convenient tablets and tincture.
Flex-Ability - The Flexible Herbal Option
According to traditional Chinese herbalism, the herbs in Flex-Ability provide
support to the bones and tendons. Flex-Ability combines achyranthes root, teasel
root and Angelica pubescens root, with an additional blend of gambir twigs,
chaenomeles fruit, ligusticum rhizome, tien chi ginseng root, angelica root,
siler root, lycii fruit, notopterygii root and dong quai root.
Like other Planetary Formulas products, Flex-Ability unites time-tested herbal
traditions with modern convenience. Each is exclusively developed or selected
by licensed acupuncturist and clinical herbalist Michael Tierra, L.Ac., O.M.D.
A clinician since 1972, Tierra is an internationally recognized authority on
herbs and best-selling author of herbal books.
