This leads to symptoms of Blood deficiency and deeper Yin deficiency, creating a cycle which further exacerbates the Yang rising.

Internal Wind usually arises from one or all of three pre-existing patterns: uprising of Liver Yang (known also as flaring up of Liver Fire), accumulated Internal Heat and deficiency of Blood, especially of the Liver. Wind corresponds with the Wood Phase, as does the Liver Network, therefore most patterns characterized by Wind are also considered to arise from disharmonies of the Liver. Long-term accumulation of Internal Heat may engender a secondary uprising of Liver Yang: this effulgence of Yang transforms into Wind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExcess of Internal Wind − sometimes termed the Uprising of Liver Yang − can particularly upset the equanimity of the Pericardium and the Heart\/ Mind resulting in myriad patterns of Shen instability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePurge Internal Wind\u003c\/strong\u003e dispels Internal Wind by subduing the excess Yang of the Liver, nurturing Yin and Blood and clearing Heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRATIONALE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGastrodia rhizome, Gambir stem branch and twig and Tribulus fruit dispel Wind and, along with White peony root and Abalone shell, subdue Liver Yang, and support healthy muscles and nerves.
