CORE DEFINITION

Using warming medicinals to dispel cold pathogens and supplement yang qi. The Fire Spirit School is most adept at this, skillfully using aconite and dried ginger. Scaffold role: thawing and revival. Low body function (heart failure, kidney failure) is like an 'Ice Age'. At this time, no nutrition is useful; one must first provide a 'sun' (aconite) to melt the ice into water, allowing life to flow again.
