Gastrodia Relieve Wind Formula

Gastrodia Relieve Wind Formula addresses symptoms like dizziness, head pressure, tinnitus, blurry vision, and insomnia linked to internal wind and rising liver yang. This formula is frequently used when high blood pressure, neurological tension, or wind-like sensations arise from liver and kidney imbalances.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), these symptoms reflect internal wind stirred by excess heat and deficient yin. Gastrodia Relieve Wind Formula helps calm the nervous system, ease muscle spasms, and promote circulation, especially when tension rises upward.

Gastrodia (tian ma) and uncaria (gou teng) are the primary herbs that calm liver wind and relieve tension, dizziness, and spasms. Gardenia (zhi zi) and Chinese skullcap (huang qin) clear excess heat from the upper body. Tonifying herbs like eucommia (du zhong), loranthus (sang ji sheng), and dong quai (dang gui) support the liver and kidneys while nourishing the blood to restore grounding.

This classical formula is especially helpful when yin deficiency allows heat to rise unchecked, causing upward-rushing sensations, blurred vision, or tension in the head and limbs. The inclusion of oyster shell supports calming, anchoring, and heart spirit stability.

Consider this formula if you experience symptoms of hypertension with a red face, tension headaches, light sensitivity, or dizziness after exertion. It's particularly supportive for those with yin-deficient constitutions and nervous system imbalances. Not appropriate for acute colds or flu involving external wind.
