The Chinese Medicine Perspective
In Chinese Medicine, poor circulation reflects patterns of Qi and Blood Stagnation — where the motive force driving circulation becomes insufficient or obstructed. Yang Deficiency may reduce the warming force that propels Blood outward to the extremities.
Cold accumulation, Phlegm obstruction, and Blood Deficiency can all contribute. Treatment focuses on invigorating Qi and Blood, warming Yang, resolving obstructions, and restoring the body’s natural circulatory vitality.
