Books & Supplies

Plum Dragon's Founder, Josh Walker, has written 2 excellent Chinese medicine books, that have become the indispensable for Iron Palm students and Chinese herb enthusiasts who really want to understand the mechanics of dit da jow formulation. If you want to make your own dit da jow recipes and learn how the herbs work together in formulations, you MUST have this resource in your library: Materia Medica for Martial Artists. If you want to understand which dit da jow formulas to use, when to use them and why, for Iron Palm training, you MUST read Excursions in Iron Palm. 

Plum Dragon also offers Chinese medicine supplies for making dit da jow, such as amber glass boston rounds, amber glass gallon jugs, and even large capacity herb grinders for practitioners, herbalist and extreme hobbyists who want to be able to grind and combine their own bulk herbs at the office or at home. 

The Plum Dragon "Stay in the Game" T-shirt is a one-of-a-kind, original design, and it truly a show stopper. Plum Dragon employees are always stopped when out in our shirts and asked where to get them, because they are tough-looking shirts, and there are few on the market with a look like these. They are top-quality, and do not fade, crack or pill. Lisa has had hers for 5 years and washed them several times per week - they still look new. You definitely want to get one for yourself and as a gift for that loved one who appreciates a great shirt!
