大风艾祛风冲凉草
大风艾祛风冲凉草是历代相传之祛风良药,采用现代制药技术配制而成,并保存其传统品质及功能,疗效确著,已被证实及肯定。此产品采用纯天然草药,不含人造色素及防腐剂,方便省时,清洁卫生。
适用(只宜外用):
传统上适用于产妇在坐月期间洗澡及洁身,以阻抗风寒,以防湿气入侵体内,调理体质(连续使用30天至40天)及减轻产后水肿。此产品也能用于平日泡澡或泡脚以帮助纾解紧张压力,减少疲劳,并促进新陈代谢及血液循环。
用法:
将一包放入18公升的水中(可加入几片姜)煮至滚沸,再以慢火煮10-15分钟即可。之后置放至适当的温度,或加入已煮过的开水降温,既可用来洗澡或用毛巾沾湿敷于全身作洁肤用。
产妇可否洗澡和洗头
产妇在产后更要注重个人卫生,因为孕妇在分娩及产后都会大量出汗,必须保持每天冲凉的习惯。由于产妇身体比较弱,所以冲凉时水温要保持在36°C至39°C左右及沐浴5-10分钟。沐浴后必须立刻擦干身体及吹干头发,避免着凉及感冒。
此产品在冲凉时可通过毛孔进入体内促进血液循环,对阻抗风寒及湿气侵入筋络有显著的疗效。因此在生产后的30- 45天内连续使用可避免产妇受风寒侵入而导致年老时患上风湿疾病的可能性。
大风艾的治病原理
现代研究与中医的观点一致,双方都认为冲凉疗法主要是直接将药物接触疾患部以达到治病的目地,因为在温浴时皮肤毛孔张开,血液循环加速,药力就可通过毛孔进入血脉,并由血液输送入人体各部分及循环全身。
疗法特点
方法简单、疗效可靠、安全、无副作用、男女老幼患者均可选用。
为何产妇在坐月期间需要大风艾冲凉
产后是妇女生理上一个特殊时期,这是因为经过怀孕与分娩,体内营养和热量被大量消耗,元气大亏,气血两虚,抵抗力下降,如果起居不慎,吹风受凉,寒气很容易乘虚而入,引起头痛,腰腿痛等神经性疼痛;如果过早用冷水洗刷东西,或洗冷水浴,可使寒湿侵入经络关节而引起风湿病。产妇受凉后,还可因体温下降,血管收缩而导致恶露不下。所以产妇在坐月时期应得到特别照顾。大风艾冲凉草药力可在冲凉时通过毛孔进入体内促进血液循环,对阻抗风寒及湿气侵入经络的疗效确著。因此在生产后的30-45天内连续使用大风艾冲凉草可避免产妇受风寒侵入导致年老时患上风湿疾病。此外,更有助于皮肤的洁白健美。
根据资料显示,女性在年老时患上风湿疾病的比例比男性高出许多,其大部分原因是因为妇女在生产后疏于照顾,并受到风寒及湿气侵入筋络所引起的。此外,这也因她们平日做家务时经常接触到水有间接的关系。所以产后的妇女更应该选择以大风艾冲凉以减低年老时患上风湿病的可能性。

Can mothers shower and wash hair during postpartum confinement?
Personal hygiene is of utmost importance during postpartum confinement due to heavy perspiration during childbirth, hence a good habit to maintain daily showers is highly recommended. The water temperature should be kept between 36°C to 39°C, and shower should lasts only 5 to 10 minutes. The body must be wiped and hair dried immediately to avoid catching a cold.
During shower, this unique herbal formula is better absorbed by the body for improved blood circulation and prevents moisture from causing ailments such as headache and joints pain. With continuously application for 30 to 45 days after childbirth, mother can also significantly reduce the occurrence of rheumatic diseases in old age.
The basis of “Daifonai” treatment
Both the modern and Chinese medicine agree that bathing the wound with medicine is more effective as the skin/wound can absorb the medicine through direct contact. This direct contact also helps to open up the pores, enabling the medicine to penetrate deeper into the skin and improve blood circulation.
The treatment
The treatment is easy, effective and safe from side-effects. It can be used by anybody regardless of age and sex.
Why Do women in confinement (the period of a month or so after childbirth) need to bathe with “daifonai”
The period immediately after childbirth, ‘confinement’ is critical to a women’s health. This is because pregnancy and delivery cause a great strain to a women’s physique as well as her energy level, or as the Chinese medicinal practice puts it, on her ‘chi’ or inner energy.
If not replenished, the lack of ‘chi’ or inner energy can cause low immunity to disease. The ‘cold air/chillness’ can easily enter the body and cause ailments such as headache and pain around pelvic area and joints.
Doing the laundry, washing the dishes or taking cold showers exposes the women to the ‘chillness’ which can cause the body temperature to drop and the blood vessels to contract leading to pain in the joints or rheumatism.
Bathing with ‘Daifonai’ can and will prevent this from happening because the medicine penetrates deeper into the skin which improves blood circulation and the overall health of the new mothers during ‘confinement’. In addition, ‘daifonai’ also improves the skin complexion.
Bathing with ‘Daifonai’ for 30-45 days after childbirth prevents ‘chillness/cold air’ entering the body therefore prevents the occurrence of rheumatism in later age.
Research has shown that women especially older women, suffer from rheumatism more than men. This is due to doing washing and household chores during confinement which cause the ‘chillness’ to enter their system. Bathing with ‘Daifonai’ will protect new- mothers from developing joint point or rheumatism later in life.
