Blood's Mansion / Xue Fu Zhu Yu Tang

In any illness that continues for an extended period of time, or is unresponsive to treatment, it is necessary to huo xie/quicken the blood. Blood stasis is an integral part of many chronic disorders that don't respond to normal treatment strategies. Blood stasis is common in heart and liver disorders, and may develop after surgery, trauma, or hemorrhage. It is also a common factor in chronic illnesses such as arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and other degenerative diseases. Quickening blood stasis has become a very important component of modern Chinese medical treatment of autoimmune disorders.
