In Chinese Medicine: Clove Bud is deeply warming, stimulating and strengthening, with mixed pungent, sweet and woody qualities. Its Yang tonification focuses on the Middle and Lower Jiao — resolving cold and damp above, moving stuck Qi and Blood below. Best reserved for chronic rather than acute presentations.
