This receipy is from Wong Kiew Kit's book..

The ingredients are; Ru Xiang, Mo Yao, Chuan Hong Hua, Gui Wei, Zhi Ke, Chuan Gong, Tao Ren, Mu Xiang, Chen Xiang, Jin Jie, Chi Yao, Ji Geng, Zhi Zi, Hu Gu, Dan Pi.

Take 12 grams of each ingredients and soak (in a jar) in 3 pints of white rice wine for 2 months, in a dark, cool place. After this period you discard the residue. I shook the mixture every week or so, and it came out great. It will promote the circulation of blood & energy to relive bruising, swelling, pain, blood clots and energy blockage. Obviously, you freely rub it on the injured area, preferably soon after training, since the pores of your body are still open so absorbtion is maximal, although you can apply it at any time. If you're to apply wine, but not after training, it was recommended to me to rub the injured area until you could feel heat building up, that way you warm the skin thus expanding your pores. It is also good to rub the wound to manually circulate the blood so it doesn't "pool up" in one area and cause swelling and clotting. But that can be quite painful.
Hope that helped someone.
Take care,
Mikado.
