Iron Palm Dit Da Jow
Iron Palm Dit Da Jow is a blend of herbs soaked in alcohol for blood stagnation and bone,tendon health, Iron Palm Dit Da Jow is applied before and after training. Generally this combination is prepared from one herbal pack but in some cases it can be prepared from two different herbal packs in separate jars and after a period of time macerating they can be added together.
One popular Iron Palm Dit Da Jow herb pack is the Yangshang Tieda Yao, this unique formula is very good for bruises, bone health, inflamed tendons and muscles as well as pain management. A lot of holistic clinics use this for arthritis and the discomfort associated with it.
Various Herbal Actions Required
In order to create an Iron Palm Dit Da Jow blend you need to combine several different types of herbal actions from the herbs, namely herbs to dispel wind and dampness and herbs that regulate blood either by tonifying or invigorating. You also might need to clear heat or tonify Qi. Since there are multiple actions required for this type of liniment, there will be more herbs than usual needed, so the herbal pack will be larger, thus requiring a large glass jar for preparation.Since some herbs can crossover into either liniment herbs like the following can found.
- Du Huo
- Mu Gua
- Mu Dan Pi
- Hong Hua
- Chuan Xiong
- Ru Xiang
- Mo Yao
These herbs have been used in the Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniment herbal recipes as their herbal properties work well in a blended property formula.
Warm Property Iron Palm Dit Da Jow
Typically the Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniment is warming, to what degree is generally determined by the herbalist who created the recipe or by the practitioner who is having the liniment made for them. Herbal properties play an extremely important part in this blended liniment. You do not want the liniment to cool as it can interfere with Qi movement with continued use and you do not want to use a hot property liniment when there is swelling or during the first 24-72 hours of a trauma induced injury. So having a liniment that is slightly warming fits well in most situations.
Hot Property Iron Palm Dit Da Jow
Hot property Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniments are very good for conditioning, loosening up muscles and tendons or when Qi movement is impaired (pain) but there is no swelling. One pretty popular hot property liniment that is a Iron Palm Dit Da Jow blend is the Tendon Warming Liniment, while this liniment is not recommended for newly acquired bruises since it is a hot property liniment it is very good for deep bone bruises, discomfort in the joints, loosening up muscles and creating greater flexibility with tendons. Want to do the splits, this is the liniment of choice.
Two Liniment Kits
As we mentioned in the first paragraph one way to achieve the benefits of Iron Palm Dit Da Jow is to purchase one herbal pack of each and prepare them as instructed. When they are ready to use the best approach to receive maximum benefits is add an equal amount of each liniment in a small glass bottle and shake thoroughly. For example if you have a 6 ounce bottle add 3 ounces of each seal and shake.

Dit Da Jow on left and same property Iron Palm on right, prepare them individually then combine a little of each in a small bottle for a super powerful Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniment.
You now have an Iron Palm Dit Dit Da Jow liniment that pretty much covers most trauma, healing and conditioning needs, as you have 100 percent of each type of liniment combined in a bottle. I say this because some of these blended liniment kits due to their size cannot give you 100 percent of the properties of Iron Palm and Dit Da Jow. Most Dit Da Jow herb packs consist of 16 herbs to offer the healing of blood stagnation and blood stasis. Iron Palm herb packs consist of around 18 herbs to offer the bone, tendon and connective tissue healing properties. Combine those two numbers and you have 34 herbs in both kits. Most Iron Palm Dit Da Jow kits sold only have 20-22 herbs total, while this will still work it might not work as well for fresh injuries since has a smaller amount of herbs.
One advantage to this approach using two kits is it allows flexibility when different needs arise. If you just have a bruise or sprain, Dit Da Jow liniment is all that is needed. If you are healing a bone or tendon injury or performing hand conditioning then Iron Palm liniment is all that is needed. You do not need a blended type liniment in those situations.
Iron Palm Dit Da Jow Kit in One
There is one kit that offers 100 percent of each healing properties in one large herbal pack and that is the Tie Ba Zhang Jow liniment kit.
This kit has 35 herbs and is huge, needing a glass jar at least 7 liters in size.
This kit is not for everybody due to its size, but if want an Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniment that can handle trauma injuries and can be used for for bone, tendon and health this is the one. It also can be used for advanced hand conditioning training like hitting a canvas bag filled with steel shot.
In Conclusion
When looking for an Iron Palm Dit Da Jow liniment kit or ready-made, give thought to what you will be needing it for. Ask yourself this, will I be using this just for bruises, sprains, contusions etc? if so then you just need a straight Dit Da Jow herb pack, If you are strictly going to use this liniment for issues with your bones, tendons or connective tissue then use straight Iron Palm, this includes hand conditioning.
If your needs are more for chronic issues or strictly conditioning purposes, then an Iron Palm Dit Da Jow blend would be recommended. This only requires one glass jar and vodka. Do you want the best of both? You can purchase each individual kit and then use the liniment that best suits your current needs and even combine a little of each to use for those unique situations that can arise. This requires an extra jar and vodka so it does increase your cost slightly but not too much as it its benefits will most likely offset the additional costs.
