Can I smoke moxibustion during menstruation? First, you can't moxibustion during menstruation.
The root cause of long menstrual period is that spleen deficiency can not consolidate menstrual blood, resulting in more bleeding. When the menstrual flow is large, can moxibustion be done at this time? This also needs to be treated dialectically. Some people can stop bleeding by re-moxibustion when the blood volume increases too much, the menstrual period is long, and bright red blood is discharged after menstrual moxibustion. If the menstrual blood is too much and uncontrollable after each moxibustion, you should also be careful about moxibustion.
When a woman's menstrual period comes, her blood is surging and she is more active than usual. Moxibustion just has the function of promoting qi and blood circulation. At this time, using moxibustion to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis will lead to greater menstrual flow, and some people will cause their own panic and doubts. In addition, some people are skeptical and superstitious about books, fearing that menstrual moxibustion will lead to metrorrhagia. This inner cowardice will affect the effect of moxibustion, and the subsequent trouble comes from the moxibustion practitioners themselves, so such people don't want moxibustion at all.
Second, less menstrual period can be moxibustion.
Generally speaking, there are two situations of less menstrual flow, one is blood stasis and the other is deficiency. Stasis is due to some reason, or cold or wet pathogen, which stays in the uterus, blocks the meridians, especially affects the exchange of qi and blood between Chong and Ren meridians, resulting in scanty menstruation. Deficiency is due to the deficiency of qi and blood itself, at this time, the meridians are unblocked, but due to the weakness of middle qi, there is not enough biochemical source of qi and blood, and the menstrual flow naturally does not increase.
As we all know, in fact, moxibustion has two major benefits, one is warming and the other is tonifying. Warm moxibustion means that moxibustion can dredge channels and collaterals, and at the same time, it can resolve and discharge the blockage of channels and collaterals, which belongs to a process of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Tonifying means that moxibustion has the function of tonifying yang and benefiting qi. Moxibustion supplements the yang to the viscera through acupoints and meridians, so that it can exert its best function, and then breeds enough qi and blood, and the amount of menstruation will naturally increase.
People with less menstruation can have moxibustion during menstruation. At this time, moxibustion can help the body to expel blood clots and remove stasis, just like moxibustion promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, dredging meridians and expelling some stasis in the body, thus achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.
Of course, most of the time, amenorrhea with less menstrual flow or unknown reasons belongs to the normal state of women. This time is very suitable for moxibustion. On the one hand, regulating the possible gynecological hidden dangers, on the other hand, relying on moxibustion to eliminate the blockage in the body can increase the menstrual flow, restore the normal level, and clean up the garbage toxins in the body in time!
Can dysmenorrhea be moxibustion Strictly speaking, dysmenorrhea is a symptom, a phenomenon, not a disease. Under the surface phenomenon of dysmenorrhea, diseases are often hidden, which is the essence of dysmenorrhea and the source of dysmenorrhea. It is worth mentioning that if it is dysmenorrhea with long-term pain, it is likely to be adenomyosis, which needs attention.
Moxibustion is a common method to treat dysmenorrhea. The principle of moxibustion in treating dysmenorrhea is: Folium Artemisiae Argyi has a special smell and warmth, which can play a role in regulating human functions, relieve female uterine muscle reflex spasm, and help female friends warm the uterus during menstruation, promote blood circulation, dredge collaterals and relieve pain. That is, people often say that "the general principle does not hurt, but the pain will not work."
Moxibustion points: Pishu, Zhongyu, Guanyuan, Uterus, Huilai, Bajiao, Diji and Sanyinjiao.
We use moxibustion to regulate dysmenorrhea, mainly by harmonizing qi and blood. When qi and blood are harmonized and tissues and organs are fully nourished by qi and blood, they will naturally play an instinctive rejection, that is, the mechanism of expelling diseases, eliminating pathogens and harmonizing the internal environment. The environment where the disease breeds naturally disappears, the disease naturally cannot be sustained, and dysmenorrhea disappears, which can be described as treating both the symptoms and the root causes.
However, in the acute stage of dysmenorrhea, we have no time to find the root of the disease and fundamentally regulate it. At this time, it is more important to relieve the pain and prescribe the right medicine. We can moxibustion acupoints: dysmenorrhea moxibustion: Hegu, Neiguan and Taichong.
