Sanchi (Han San Qi Alias)

Traditional Use

Primary Actions

• Stops bleeding without trapping stasis ... Han San Qi shares San Qi's hallmark ability to check bleeding while still moving old blood, making it valuable for traumatic bleeding, hemoptysis, hematemesis, and blood-in-stool patterns where stasis is part of the picture.
• Invigorates blood and relieves pain ... it is a premier trauma herb for bruising, contusion, fracture, chest impediment, and other painful stagnation states.
• Reduces swelling and speeds recovery after injury ... powdered root and root-cluster material are long used internally and externally for falls, sprains, and post-traumatic swelling.

Secondary Actions

• This alias page preserves the `Han San Qi` trade-name lane while following the same accepted botanical identity as Panax notoginseng.
• The content emphasis here stays on fuller whole-root and root-cluster dispensing identity, distinct from the cleaner main `San Qi` sibling page.

Classic Formulas

• Qi Li San ... classic trauma powder logic in which San Qi-class notoginseng stops bleeding, disperses stasis, and relieves pain.
• Single-herb San Qi powder with warm water or rice wine ... long-standing practical use for traumatic bleeding, bruising, and pain.
• Yunnan Bai Yao style trauma-hemostatic combinations ... the best-known modern-classical continuation of the San Qi tradition.

Classical References

• Classical and later materia medica repeatedly single out San Qi for the unusual dual action of stopping bleeding while dispelling stasis, which is why it became one of the great trauma herbs.
• Modern Chinese naming lists Han San Qi among accepted aliases of Panax notoginseng, but authenticated sourcing still matters because other non-Panax look-alikes have borrowed similar market names.
• Traditional use strongly favors blood, trauma, and pain patterns rather than the broad Qi-tonic role associated with other Panax species.
