What are the six effects of moxibustion?
1, dredge meridians

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that meridians are important channels for activating qi and blood, connecting zang-fu organs and various parts of the body, and are the regulation system of human functions. Therefore, the smoothness of meridians is conducive to the operation of qi and blood. Some pathogenic factors of cold and dampness often lead to the obstruction of meridians, thus inducing diseases. Moxibustion can dredge the twelve meridians, enter Sanyin, warm acupoints and meridians of the body, thus activating blood gas and treating various diseases caused by cold coagulation and blood stasis and meridian obstruction.

2, qi and blood circulation

Chinese medicine believes that qi and blood are the basic substances of the human body, and the conditioning of qi and blood is particularly important for women. Only when the six functions of qi-blood moxibustion are sufficient can people maintain normal life activities. Moxibustion has the function of regulating qi and blood, not only regulating qi, but also ascending middle qi, thus achieving the purpose of health care.

Step 3 dispel dampness and cold

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that blood can move when it sees heat and coagulate when it sees cold, so the invasion of cold into the body will hinder the operation of qi and blood, leading to a series of diseases. Moxibustion can warm meridians and unblock collaterals, thus warming meridians and unblocking collaterals, dispelling cold and removing arthralgia, which is beneficial to the smooth operation of qi and blood.

Step 4 Adjust Yin and Yang

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the balance of yin and yang in human body means good health, while the imbalance of yin and yang will cause various diseases in human body. Through moxibustion therapy, the effects of regulating yin and yang and tonifying the body can be achieved, and finally the balance can be restored and health can be improved.

5, back to Yang to save the inverse

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the yang is weak and unstable, and the light person sinks, and the heavy person collapses. As the saying goes, "medicine is not as good as needle, it must be moxibustion." The ancient book says: "Qi and Yin are all out of control, so we need to take Shenque and Guanyuan moxibustion urgently to restore yang and save the inverse." Moxibustion has the function of restoring yang and saving inverse. The nature of Artemisia argyi belongs to pure yang, and fire belongs to yang. The combination of the two Yang Can is conducive to the warmth of the yang, while the rise of Yang Can relieves depression, supports and fixes the yang.

6, disease prevention and health care

Medicine has proved that moxibustion can enhance the phagocytosis of white blood cells and accelerate the production of some antibodies in the body, thus improving the immunity of the body. At the same time, moxibustion can also effectively improve the functions of various systems of the human body and improve the disease resistance of the human body, thus effectively preventing and treating diseases. It is the role of moxibustion in harmonizing qi and blood, dispelling cold and strengthening body resistance that can effectively achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases and maintaining health.
