Kidneys are vital organ for human being for maintaining the internal balances and orders. Kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs which are about 10-12cm in length, 5-6 width and 3-4cm in thick.
When we are born, the kidneys will grow with age and when we become elderly the kidneys will naturally become shrunk compared with those in the young adults. With the shrinking of the kidneys, kidney functions will be lost.
Different from the natural process of aging, kidney atrophy is a kidney disease which means that the kidney is much smaller than the supposed normal size by taking into account of the patient’s age, gender, height and body weight. It is usually caused by long term kidney problems. The nephron especially the renal glomeruli are severely impaired and kidney functions are severely affected.
But the good news is that you only have one atrophic kidney and the left kidney is still normal, therefore you may not have very obvious symptoms. Early and effective treatment still holds great hope for the improvements of your kidney functions so that the progression into end stage renal disease can be prevented or at least delayed.
The very root cause of renal atrophy is the scarring and fibrosis of renal tissues, therefore effective treatment should focus on this problems so that kidney atrophy can be treated from the very root.
Osmosis therapy of Chinese medicine is an innovation of Traditional Chinese Medicines and it is an external application of Chinese medicines to help repair damaged renal tissues and revitalize renal functions by eliminating blood stasis, pathogenic factors, immune complexes and extracellular matrix.
What is more important, Chinese medicines are mostly herbal medicines and they are natural and safe for the kidneys. Since it is externally applied, the gastrointestinal stimulation and low efficacy of traditional decoction of herbal medicines can all be avoided and the efficacy of the medicines is greatly enhanced.
