What is "Sanfu herbal patch"
Sanfu patch is one of the traditional therapies in traditional Chinese medicine, which integrates the external treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine, known as "treating internal diseases externally", to achieve the therapeutic goal of "preventing diseases before they occur, preventing changes after diseases occur, and preventing recurrence after recovery".
The three fu periods are the most vigorous season of yang qi in nature. The three fu patches conform to the three fu seasons in summer. By directly applying traditional Chinese medicine to acupoints, they provide the body with warming yang, dispelling cold, resolving dampness, and eliminating phlegm through traditional Chinese medicine treatment. This helps to eliminate stubborn cold qi in the body, increase the deficient yang qi, and enhance the body's immunity. It has good therapeutic benefits for various chronic diseases and cancer patients, effectively improving the body's own immunity.

Pay attention to tips
The Sanfu herbal patch contains fragrant and penetrating herbs
Symptoms such as pigmentation, flushing, mild itching, burning sensation, pain, and mild blistering of the skin are considered normal reactions. If you feel burning pain, you can remove it at any time. After removing the patch, it is normal for local blisters to appear. For mild cases, you can apply burn oil; if the blisters rupture, you can apply An'er Iodine on your own. After scarring, let it fall off naturally, and pay attention to preventing infection. If the local reaction is severe, please go to the hospital for treatment. On the day of treatment, it is best not to take a cold shower, and it is advisable to take a warm shower.
dress
The application areas for the Sanfu patch are mainly on the neck, back, abdomen, and waist. It is recommended to wear loose and dark-colored clothes, and for women, it is advisable not to wear dresses.
During the Sanfu, there is often high temperature weather
During the Sanfu, there is often high temperature weather, which makes people prone to sweating. When sweating excessively, applying medicine may dilute the drug concentration and reduce its efficacy.
Diet
On that day, it is important to avoid "excitants" such as beef, roast goose, duck, peanuts, taro, and beans, as well as raw and cold foods, or consuming shrimp and crab.
Treatment also needs a "moderation"
Applying medication is not necessarily "the more, the better"! In diagnosis and treatment, it is found that some patients hope to apply medication to every acupoint. In fact, the efficacy is not directly related to the amount of medication used. Furthermore, some patients may feel that the therapeutic benefit is not obvious after trying it once or twice - Sanfu herbal patch conditioning emphasizes "consistency of treatment courses". It needs to be applied periodically to gradually take effect, just like herbal medicine needs to be taken consistently for a course of treatment.
Medicine prepared and used immediately yields good therapeutic effect
Some patients request to take the medication home for their family members to apply. However, this is not recommended as aromatic medications are highly volatile and prolonged exposure to air can easily lead to the loss of effective components.
