Improve renal function

This therapy is on the basis of traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) but has made some breakthroughs. With the help of osmosis device, the active ingredients in Chinese medicines can be permeated into kidney lesions directly. Through dilating blood vessels, preventing inflammation and coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix and providing nutrients for kidney lesions, the herbs can repair the damaged kidney cells. After that, kidney function will also be improved. When kidney function is improved, imbalances in fluid and electrolytes, nerve damage or blood flow problems can all disappear.
