How it heals
In Chinese Medicine, White Peony Root nourishes the blood, calms the liver yang, and preserves yin, thereby regulating menses and alleviating pain throughout the body.
In Western medicine, White Peony Root reduces pain, stimulates the immune system, and prevents damage to the liver. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties also aid in blood flow.
Fun Fact: The peony is named after Paeon, a student of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and healing. When Asclepius became jealous of his pupil, Zeus saved Paeon from the wrath of Asclepius by turning him into the peony flower.
