I Can Talk to the Internal Organs-Chapter 319 - 285: Hair Loss, Chinese Arborvitae Leaf Shampoo Powder
Health and Rehabilitation Department.
When Mo Linxun and Liu Xing stepped into this department, they realized it was completely different from what they had imagined.
The theoretical explanations were overly complex, with terms like the Triple Burner Meridian and Chong Meridian—they couldn’t understand a bit, but the movements were strangely similar to radio exercises.
But ironically, these movements seemed simple, yet when actually performed, they found them quite strenuous.
Soon, both of them began to sweat.
After stumbling through a set of movements, their hair was basically drenched with sweat.
At this point, the doctors in the department told them to take a break, and after more than ten minutes, they continued to practice. This time, they focused on correcting each movement individually, explaining all the details so that they could fully master each movement.
Of course, correcting movements was not something that could be achieved in just one or two sessions.
Fortunately, after correcting the movements, the two of them finally made some progress, and completing a set of movements with corrections took nearly two hours.
During this period, they also saw others practicing, but some seemed to be practicing different techniques.
One was called the Five Viscera Poison-Expelling Technique, another was Shooting the Eight Vacant Points, and another focused on the eyes, known as Nine Yang Eye Training.
However, the eye training seemed to start earlier than theirs, and they had to practice outdoors facing the sun.
Honestly, they were quite curious about this eye training cultivation technique.
Especially after setting aside their prejudices against Qi Gong and observing these things from a new perspective, they found that, as Lu Jiu had said, there were indeed merits to them.
For instance, the Eight Vajra Skills, although not showing significant effects for the time being, left them feeling particularly energetic after practice.
It’s important to know that Mo Linxun, after retirement, often went for morning runs as exercise.
He would get up at five or six in the morning, running for at least an hour.
After running, he felt very energized throughout the morning, but around eleven o’clock, he would feel unbearably sleepy, unable to resist without napping.
As a result, he hadn’t run in the mornings for years, yet he still felt sleepy at noon, and couldn’t shake off the drowsiness in the afternoon without a nap.
However, after practicing the Eight Vajra Skills, he was surprised to find that he no longer felt sleepy at noon.
Even without a nap, he didn’t experience drowsiness in the afternoon.
Although both are forms of exercise, practicing the Eight Vajra Skills took more time but consumed less energy than running, and Mo Linxun couldn’t yet determine which was better.
In the days that followed, he and Liu Xing continued their training, while Feng Shaohua and others went to the People’s Hospital to find Fang Qian to discuss whether they could study the Vital Energy Warming Formula with sugar, as Lu Jiu mentioned, to treat diabetic foot from both internal and external approaches.
As for Lu Jiu.
In the past few days, aside from consulting, he focused on researching herbal formulas in the aesthetics and beauty department.
This time, however, it wasn’t for women but men.
Yes, men can also be customers of the aesthetics and beauty department.
Of course, it wasn’t about improving skin but promoting hair growth.
In cases of balding, even a handsome man like Gu Tianle can’t withstand it.
Moreover, most people are just ordinary.
Once balding occurs, appearance drops several notches instantly.
So, for women, the face is most important, but for men, that patch of hair on the head is crucial.
Lu Jiu was researching a herbal formula for hair growth because Zuo Quan from the male department kept bringing up the issue.
In the past few months, more than one person asked him how to deal with balding.
Indeed, internal treatment can resolve the root issue, but replenishing Qi and blood is not something that can be achieved quickly.
If balding does not stimulate the scalp, even with ample Qi and blood, the extra doesn’t flow to the head, and hair still won’t grow.
Thus, after internal treatment, external methods are also necessary.
Lu Jiu understood that this was yet another route to expand the hospital’s services.
So, after three days of research, Lu Jiu and Zuo Quan finally developed a formula for hair growth and prevention of hair loss.
This formula consists of eight herbs, namely Chinese Arborvitae Leaf, Fleeceflower Root, Soap Pod, Ligustrum Fruit, Mulberry Leaf, Salvia, Sophora, and Psoralea.
After mixing in a certain proportion, it can be ground into powder.
Lu Jiu tried this formula himself, and after pouring a small portion into a basin, it dissolved directly in water.
After washing hair with this herbal water, the hair emits a faint herbal fragrance, not an overwhelming smell.
Zuo Quan also tried it for several days, whose results were significantly better than Lu Jiu’s.
After three consecutive days of washing, his hair loss noticeably improved.
Previously, while washing his hair, a dozen or twenty hair strands would end up in the sink; at nearly fifty years old, the swirl at the back of his head wasn’t as small as in his youth, and the surrounding area had thinned out significantly.
This was clearly caused by years of hair loss.
Zuo Quan didn’t expect that just by mentioning it, Lu Jiu’s herbal formula could truly prevent hair loss.
Now, just with this formula alone, the profitability of the aesthetics and beauty department could possibly increase several times over.
In Jianghan, a small county town, there are not many young people; it’s mostly middle-aged and elderly people.
Once they learn that Lu Jiu TCM Hospital has an herbal formula to prevent hair loss or even regrow hair in balding cases.
Goodness!
They might scramble for the medicine.
Indeed, as Zuo Quan had anticipated.
In the following clinic sessions, patients already showing signs of balding came to his consultation room.
While Zuo Quan managed their illnesses, he also asked if they wanted to address their hair loss problems.
The answer was universally enthusiastic, with everyone eager for Zuo Quan to prescribe on the spot.
Zuo Quan prescribed Lu Jiu’s Chinese Arborvitae Leaf shampoo powder to some patients.
With internal and external treatments, once the Qi and blood are replenished, coupled with external stimulation, hair loss prevention progresses swiftly.
After all, hair is essentially an extension of blood; only when blood is abundant can excess flow to the head.
Therefore, just the Chinese Arborvitae Leaf shampoo powder won’t be particularly effective if there’s an inherent deficiency in Qi and blood.
It’s much like many fitness enthusiasts: if naturally working out without harming the kidneys, even if Qi and blood overflow to the limbs, a lack of enough Qi and blood nourishment to the Five Viscera won’t cause hair loss.
It’s only in cases where advanced technology is employed, and the Five Viscera and Six Bowels are excessively squeezed, filling limbs with Qi and blood, leading to deficiency in the Five Viscera and severe exhaustion of the kidneys, that balding or serious hair loss occurs.
For ordinary people, hair loss usually results from high-stress levels, unresolved emotions leading to liver Qi stagnation, and exhaustion from staying up late, naturally depleting Qi and blood.
By changing these habits, staying calm, and using herbal remedies for internal and external treatment, hair loss ceases to be a problem.
It wouldn’t even cost much, far cheaper than hair transplants, and more effective.
Under Zuo Quan’s persistent recommendations, more and more patients came to the men’s department for hair loss treatment, especially after Zuo Quan appeared on the television station’s Healthy Jianghan Live Stream and promoted men’s hair loss treatments, further igniting this market.
Soon, numerous middle-aged men troubled by hair loss flocked to Lu Jiu TCM Hospital, seeking remedies for hair loss prevention.
Because of their influx, Lu Jiu TCM Hospital’s patient intake directly surpassed nine thousand, quickly approaching ten thousand.
This rapid increase finally pushed Lu Jiu TCM Hospital’s doctor-to-patient ratio into a saturated state.
There aren’t enough doctors!
To further develop, aside from training some doctors, additional recruits are essential.
This issue posed quite a challenge for Lu Jiu.
Clearly, it was unlikely for doctors from other regions to come to their newly established hospital, especially capable TCM practitioners who already have a solid footing locally, with plenty of patients, not worried about livelihood, with no need to uproot their lives.
Locally, Lu Jiu wasn’t aware of any other TCM practitioners.
As for doctors from Jianghan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, to be honest, Lu Jiu had approached Tang Yi.
Though he wasn’t an old TCM doctor, he excelled in willingness to learn and solid foundational skills, offering significantly greater room for growth at their hospital.
But Tang Yi declined because his family was in debt, and Dean Qi had advanced him a few months’ salary to help them temporarily cross their hurdle, and he couldn’t neglect this kindness.
Lu Jiu respected Tang Yi’s decision and never brought up the matter again.
Besides Jianghan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lu Jiu had no other knowledge of TCM practitioners in Jianghan.
It seemed, in this matter, he would have to seek help from his grandfather.
