Whether you are a martial artist, rock climber, woodworker or farmer- anyone who regularly depends upon the strength of their hands and fingers- why not use a training formula like Eagle Claw Hand Strengthening Liniment that both strengthens the fingers, and helps to prevent the accumulation of these minor injuries from impacting on the health of the hand, as well as the rest of the body?

Function:

This liniment also contains ingredients that are said to strengthen the sinews (tendons and ligaments) and bones of the hands, such as Xie Ke (crab shell), Long Gu (fossilized bone) and Xu Duan (Whose name literally means: “reconnect what is broken “).

Directions:
External Use Only.
To make:
Break the herbs up into small pieces and put them in a glass jar with 1.5 gallons of vodka or Chinese Bai Jiu (White Alcohol). The alcohol content should be between 40-60%. Seal the container and store it out of the light in a cool, dark place for at least 3 months. Shake the container as often as possible. Pour some of the liquid out into a smaller glass container for regular use and let the rest brew for another few months or even up to two years or more. Do not store this liniment in plastic containers except for short periods of time.

To apply:
Take a small amount of the liniment and massage it into the joints of the hands and wrist as well as the tendon attachments of the flexor and extensor muscles of the hands located at the medial and lateral epicondyles of the humerus. The liniment should be applied before and after any activity which stresses the sinews and joints of the hands, wrists, and forearms – Grappling! Eagle Claw Hand Strengthening Liniment can and should be used before and after each training session. Be careful if you wear white, as the liniment can easily stain clothing. You might want to rub the liniment into your hands and forearms thoroughly before putting on clothing.
