Neck and Shoulders Support 120 tabs, Planetary Herbals

Description of Neck and Shoulders Support 120 tabs, Planetary Herbals

In traditional Chinese herbalism, botanicals have long been used to support the back. Planetary Formulas Neck and Shoulders Support combines kudzu, traditionally used to support the upper back, with other classic Chinese herbs.

In Chinese herbalism, herbs are used to support general back health. Ancient formulas have long supported specific back areas by focusing on the liver, kidneys and specific muscles. According to traditional Chinese texts, the kidneys are stated to "rule the bones," while the liver is said to "govern the tendons." The botanicals used in the lower back formula are traditionally used to support the kidneys and liver, and are said to "strengthen the sinews and bones... and benefit the joints," while herbs for the neck and shoulders are also said to support muscle relaxation.

The primary herb in Planetary Formulas Neck and Shoulders Support is kudzu, Pueraria lobata, also first written about in 206 B.C. This unique botanical has recently been popularized by today's macrobiotics proponents, and continues to be included in China's official pharmacopoeia. Neck and Shoulders Support combines kudzu with specific botanicals from traditional Chinese herbalism used to release neck and shoulder tension, including ligusticum, notopterygium, turmeric extract, dong quai extract, peony alba, clematis, astragalus, cinnamon and millettiae.
