Du Zhong Herb for Tendon Pain, Hormone Balance & Joint Health

We have uploaded a new video exploring Du Zhong (Eucommia bark), a traditional Chinese herb commonly used in Chinese medicine to support the kidneys, tendons, bones, muscles, and lower back.

In this episode, Dr. Li Zheng and Dr. Greg Alpert discuss the traditional uses of Du Zhong, emerging research into its potential anti-inflammatory and hormone-related effects, and how it may be used alongside acupuncture and modern treatments such as PRP for tendon and joint health.

The video also covers tendonitis, chronic tendinopathy, circulation, hormone balance, and the differences between muscle and tendon healing.
