Its pharmaceutical Latin names are Myrrh and \u003cem\u003eResina Commiphorae\u003c\/em\u003e. Mo Yao enters the Heart, Liver, and Spleen channels and is traditionally used to invigorate the Blood, dispel Blood Stasis, alleviate pain, reduce swelling, generate flesh, and promote healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTCM Herb Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao is primarily used when pain is associated with Blood Stasis, particularly when the pain is severe. Traditional indications include pain from trauma, sores, carbuncles, swellings, fixed abdominal masses, painful obstruction, chest pain, abdominal pain, and amenorrhea. Its combination of Blood-invigorating, Stasis-dispersing, pain-relieving, and swelling-reducing actions makes it especially associated with presentations in which obstruction and stagnation are prominent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao also generates flesh and promotes healing. Traditional applications include chronic non-healing sores, particularly where impaired healing is associated with the herb's Blood-moving and tissue-supporting actions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Traditional Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional notes describe Mo Yao as an herb used especially for severe pain caused by Blood Stasis. It is also described as having an astringent action when applied to the lips. Some traditional descriptions additionally attribute a Qi-regulating action to Mo Yao.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao is the resin obtained from the stem of the plant. Historically, myrrh resin was applied to corpses in ancient Egypt as a preservative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMo Yao and Ru Xiang\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao and Ru Xiang, Olibanum, share several important actions. Both invigorate the Blood, disperse Stasis, relieve pain, reduce swelling, and generate flesh. Their traditional characteristics differ, however. Ru Xiang is warm and piercingly aromatic. It is described as more powerfully stopping pain, acting more strongly on Qi, more powerfully invigorating the Blood, and relaxing the sinews.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao is neutral and bitter. It is described as more powerfully breaking up Stagnation, with draining and dispersing actions that act more directly on the Blood. When Mo Yao and Ru Xiang are combined, the dosage of Mo Yao should be reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrepared and Unprepared Forms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnprepared Myrrh, Shen Mo Yao, is generally used externally or incorporated into pill form. Prepared Myrrh, Zhi Mo Yao, has a less disagreeable effect on digestion and a more agreeable taste. The prepared form is also described as stronger for invigorating Blood, stopping pain, restraining and inhibiting, and generating flesh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional Use Considerations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMo Yao is intended for presentations in which Stasis is present and is contraindicated in the absence of Stasis. It is also contraindicated during pregnancy, in cases of excessive uterine bleeding, and when there is excessive loss of postpartum lochia accompanied by abdominal pain due to Deficiency. Caution is advised for those with weak Stomachs, and long-term use is not recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Myrrh, Resina Commiphorae, Commiphora\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1lb\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePotency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1:1\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaste:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bitter\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProperties:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neutral\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannels Entered:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart, Liver, Spleen\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Invigorates the Blood, dispels Blood Stasis, alleviates pain, reduces swelling, generates flesh, promotes healing, traditionally described as regulating Qi\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blood Stasis with pain, Blood Stasis with swelling, Blood Stasis associated with fixed abdominal masses, painful obstruction, amenorrhea, chronic sores requiring tissue generation\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChinese Symptomology:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blood Stasis, severe pain from Blood Stasis, fixed abdominal masses due to Stasis, painful obstruction, amenorrhea due to Blood Stasis, postpartum Deficiency with excessive lochia as a contraindicated presentation\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMateria Medica:\u003c\/strong\u003e Invigorates the blood\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContraindications:\u003c\/strong\u003e Contraindicated during pregnancy.
