Chinese herbal treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease includes four aspects:
alleviating symptoms, shrinking renal cysts, improving kidney functions,
offsetting side effects.
Alleviating symptoms. Chinese herbal treatment regards the patient as a whole
unit, which not only focuses on the underling polycystic kidney disease, but
also alleviates the specific symptoms by adding some specific functional herbs
to herbal formula.
Shrinking renal cysts. Chinese herbal treatments control the renal cysts by
restricting the birthplace of cyst fluids—epithelial lining cells. These cells
keep secreting cyst fluids constantly, which make the cysts enlarged day and
night. Chinese herbal treatments can shrink renal cysts by controlling the
lining cells.
Improving kidney functions. Chinese herbal treatments can eliminate the
inflammations, accelerate blood circulations and cleanse away the harmful
substances to repair the damaged renal cells and tissue, improving kidney
functions.
Offsetting the side effects. The herbs in herbal formula not include the
functional herbs only. Your therapists also add some herbs which can offset the
side effects of other herbs in it, ensuring no harm to your body.
Chinese herbal medicines can improve the Prognosis for PKD to a large
extent.
