Snake Oil?

[Garland]

I was wondering if any of these different training aids actually have any usefulness, and what the differences between the different styles blends would be...

I have almost nihil background in traditional martial arts, but I have seen people do tremendous breaking feats...I understand the idea of Wolffe's Law and bone remodeling...as well as the necessity of dealing with deep bruising from training...but what are these used for?

Are they okay to apply to broken skin?

I have no clue...

You never want to use any dit da jow on open wounds unless it has been designed for this use. Many of the formula have toxic herbs in them and can kill you if said herbs get into your blood stream.

They are non toxic when absorbed through skin/muscles but entering the blood is a big no no.

I make and sell dit da jow for injuries and Iron Palm training.

You need the medicines to make sure you will not injure yourself now or suffer for the training in the future.

Be wary of people who sell you liniments that have no training other than what they read from books or the internet.

I am working on my masters in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine.

Let me know how I can be of service to you.
