Jun Fan / Jeet Kune Do Dit Da Jow (JKD)

Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do Dit Da Jow (JKD)

This pre-made Dit Da Jow is used in the Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do Fighting Arts group, a small closed door martial arts group in the Southern area under direct Jun Fan lineage; this Dit Da Jow is available exclusively at Plum Dragon Herbs; if you see it elsewhere, they bought it from us!

This recipe is composed of 26 herbs, several of which undergo special processing. Rou Gui, Bai Zhu, and Bai Shao direct the formula to the liver, spleen, and kidney meridians.

The Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do dit da jow is used primarily to promote quick healing of tendon and bone injuries from Kali stick strikes and other Kali/Escrima drills, sprains and strains from grappling, rigorous sparring, or other activities where there may be more than basic muscle bruising.

****For EXTERNAL use only. Do NOT use on open cuts/scrapes or mucous membranes such as the mouth.****
