Generally speaking, people who often have fever in their hands and feet and are afraid of heat belong to yin deficiency constitution, which is definitely not suitable for fire treatment, while people with yang deficiency constitution are just the opposite, with cold hands and feet and fear of cold, which is very suitable for fire treatment.
In addition, people suffering from boils, skin damage or hemorrhagic diseases (such as hemophilia, thrombocytopenia, purpura, etc.). ) are not suitable for fire treatment.
Everyone's physical quality is different, everyone's environment is different, everyone's thoughts and emotions are different, everyone's eating habits are different, and everyone's date of birth is different. The same medicine may cure all these differences? This is just something that will be understood after a little thought. Why doesn't anyone think about it, or believe it after thinking about it? I really don't understand.
According to Treatise on Febrile Diseases, some variations of six meridians are caused by fire therapy. So fire therapy doesn't necessarily mean that everything can be done. Similarly, it is also recorded in the synopsis of the golden chamber that moxibustion should not be used indiscriminately.
The main function of moxibustion is to warm meridians and dispel cold, dredge meridians and promote qi circulation, consolidate the foundation and support yang, and relieve depression. Judging from these effects, it is mainly an auxiliary effect on yang, but can people with excessive yang still use moxibustion? Obviously not. Also, moxibustion cannot be used for internal heat mentioned in the synopsis of the golden chamber, so moxibustion still has some indications and cannot be generalized. At the same time, moxibustion is the difference between going to work and going to work. If you don't know how to treat according to syndrome differentiation, you will get sick without illness. Because people's meridians and qi have certain rules, and people are sick, the principle of treating meridians is that deficiency is actually draining, and deficiency is actually replenishing. If you don't understand, it is tantamount to killing people without a knife. Moxibustion also has the method of reinforcing and reducing, so you should not go to moxibustion at will.
Moxibustion is actually a kind of fire therapy, and now there is fire therapy in popular health centers. The method is actually very simple, that is, get some alcohol on a wet cloth, apply it to your body, and then ignite the alcohol, and then put out the fire when the patient is too hot. Another is to burn the needle red and insert it into some parts to achieve the purpose of treatment. The taboo of this method is the same as moxibustion.
