tiger balm

When it comes to tiger balm, everyone will think of Tiger Balm and its founders, Hu Wenhu and Hu Wenbao. Tiger balm is a masterpiece of "aromatherapy", just as the advertisement says "an essential medicine for home travel". At that time, people used to treat tiger balm (it is difficult to buy authentic tiger balm, and people also called "cool oil") as a panacea, treating the headache and treating the foot pain. Although it "treats the symptoms rather than the root cause", it also works.

the main components of tiger balm are menthol, peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil, camphor, clove oil, etc. Modern science has determined that these components have the effects of anti-migraine, anti-depression, anti-vomiting, anti-coma, excitement and pain relief. When they are combined together in a certain formula, the efficacy is enhanced due to the synergistic effect, which is much stronger than that of a single component. After nearly a century's practice and verification, the formula of Tiger Label Tiger Balm is still considered as the "best compatibility", which shows that the research on the formula of Tiger Balm by Hu Wenhu family at that time was quite in-depth, and it could not be done without thousands of experiments.

similar to tiger balm and cooling oil, there are other pharmaceutical chemicals, such as Ertiantang, Qufeng Oil, Fengyoujing, Baihua Oil, etc. Their main adults are very similar, but the dosage forms are different, and the fillers are different. Adding appropriate amount of lavender essence to some products is beneficial to popularization. Both natural lavender oil and lavender essence have calming effect, which can offset the exciting effect caused by menthol and other ingredients, and the fragrance is elegant, so some wind oil essence advertisements say, "It smells good, just like perfume."

Tiger Tiger Tiger Balm Oil, White Flower Oil, part of essential balm and expelling wind oil can be taken orally. Experiments show that a small amount of peppermint oil can excite the central nervous system, indirectly transmit it to the peripheral nerves, dilate the skin capillaries, promote the secretion of sweat glands, and increase the heat dissipation of the body, so it has the effect of sweating and relieving fever; Camphor has a soothing and stimulating effect on gastrointestinal sticky wax, making the stomach feel warm and comfortable; Eucalyptus leaf oil has a strong inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus albus and Staphylococcus catarrhalis. It has moderate inhibitory effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Shigella sonnei; Clove oil can cure stomachache, stomach cold vomiting, vomiting and diarrhea, and has the effect of expelling constrictions, and has a significant inhibitory effect on staphylococcus, mycobacterium tuberculosis and common pathogenic skin fungi.

When menthol and camphor preparations are coated on the skin, they can make the cold receptors of the skin and mucosa produce cold reflex, and cause the blood vessels of the skin and mucosa to contract. Peppermint oil can stimulate the skin and slowly penetrate into the skin, thus causing long-term congestion, and at the same time, it can reflexively cause changes in blood vessels in deep tissues, adjust the function of blood vessels, and achieve therapeutic effects; Camphor also has antipruritic, analgesic and local anesthetic effects. Therefore, it is normal to feel cold and numb after applying tiger balm, white flower oil, wind oil essence, etc., and local skin is red at the same time.

menthol, camphor, eucalyptus oil and clove oil have strong repellent effects on mosquitoes, midges, gnats, flies and horsetails. Therefore, in hot summer, people often apply tiger balm to exposed skin, so that they can sleep soundly without being awakened by mosquitoes.

People who have the habit of taking a nap in summer afternoon, drivers driving long-distance buses and workers on duty apply tiger balm on their heads and temples to drive away the sandman. This is the principle that the application of menthol and other spices can enhance the action of a- brain waves, which is similar to the action mechanism of "driver's sobering agent" and has a good effect.

By using menthol, camphor and cineole to stimulate the local cold sensation of the skin, applying tiger balm to some important acupoints of the human body, such as Yintang, Renzhong, Taiyang, Belly, Zhongwan, Zusanli, Sanyinjiao and Yongquan, can have the same effect as acupuncture, and can treat common minor injuries and ailments, such as dizziness, migraine, abdominal distension, stomachache and so on. In this sense, the modern "aromatherapy" was initiated by Chinese.
