Sarcopenia is characterized by the progressive decline of muscle mass,strength,and physical function,and its pathological changes are closely related to tissues such as muscles,bones,and tendons.The five organs dominate the five bodily tissues. Bones,tendons,and muscles,as the core of the musculoskeletal system,are closely related to the liver,spleen,and kidneys.The coordination of these three organs maintains normal physical function.Deficiency or damage in the Liver,Spleen,and Kidney can lead to malnutrition of bones,tendons,and muscles,thereby inducing degenerative diseases such as sarcopenia.The Spleen governs the transformation and transportation of flesh,the Kidney stores Essence and governs bones,and the Liver stores blood and governs tendons.The three organs coordinate to maintain the physiological balance of the musculoskeletal system.Age-related deficiency of the Liver,Spleen,and Kidney is the core pathogenesis of sarcopenia,described as ″weak bones-withered tendons-atrophied muscles″. Clinically,based on the ho listic view of bones,tendons,and muscles in traditional Chinese medicine,an intervention strategy for sarcopenia is proposed:″harmonize the Liver,Spleen and Kidney,and treat bones,tendons,and muscles simultaneously″.This approach uses internal administration of Chinese herbal formulas combined with external treatments such as acupuncture,moxibustion and traditional Gongfu exercises,aimed at improving muscle atrophy and functional decline.It works by coordinating the Liver,Spleen and Kidney to regulate the production and distribution of Essence,blood and body Fluid,thereby ameliorating malnutrition in bones,tendons and muscles.
