How Chinese medicine treats osteoporosis

Osteoporosis can be treated with medication, acupuncture, moxibustion and other therapies. According to Chinese medicine, osteoporosis belongs to the category of “bone wither” and “bone paralysis”, which is closely related to kidney, spleen and liver. When the kidney essence is deficient, the bone is not nourished; or when the spleen and stomach are weak, the transportation is weak; or when the liver is depressed and stagnant, the liver and blood are insufficient, the innate essence is not nourished, the essence is deficient, the marrow is empty and all the skeletons are atrophied, which can lead to the occurrence of this disease. Treatment is mainly based on tonifying the liver and kidney, benefiting the qi and strengthening the spleen, and may choose drugs, acupuncture, moxibustion and other therapies. 1. Drug treatment: Chinese patent medicines such as Zuo Gui Pill and Xian Ling Bone Bo Capsule can be chosen for treatment. 2. Acupuncture treatment: acupuncture points such as the loom, diaphragm, liver and kidney, jiejiao, and qibian are often chosen. 3.
