Dragon moxibustion is an ancient moxibustion method. Moxibustion is one of the oldest TCM therapies in China. This therapy is a method of using wormwood to smoke and bake at acupoints for a long time, and relying on the medicinal power and heat energy emitted by wormwood burning to achieve therapeutic and health care effects. According to modern archaeological research, our ancestors knew how to use fire as early as 6.5438+0.7 million years ago. About 600 thousand years ago, "Beijingers" used fire for a long time. Moxibustion is interpreted as "burning" in Shuo Wen Jie Zi, which means burning with fire. In the process of using fire, ancestors found that when a certain part of the body feels warm stimulation, it can alleviate the pain and make the body and mind comfortable. After a long period of practice and repeated verification, moxibustion came into being. The literature records of moxibustion can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. From 65438 to 0973, the silk books "Moxibustion Sutra of Eleven Veins of Foot and Arm" and "Moxibustion Sutra of Eleven Veins of Yin and Yang" unearthed from the No.3 Han Tomb in Mawangdui, Changsha, Hunan Province are the earliest known monographs on meridians and the earliest medical classics recording moxibustion methods. There are also many descriptions of moxibustion in many contemporary non-medical classics. In Zuo Zhuan, when the medical treatment was delayed to Jin in 58 1 year BC, it was said that it was "invincible and unreachable". Among them, the word "attack" is generally considered as "moxibustion". Fire dragon moxibustion originated in the Jin Dynasty, which is the essence of court health preservation in the Jin Dynasty. During the Jin Dynasty, the people used moxibustion to treat diseases and health care. Later, this magical method was quoted by court doctors. However, because this folk moxibustion method burns directly on the skin, the pain is intense and it will leave scars, which is absolutely not allowed by the king of a country that respects the real dragon as the emperor. Through the continuous practice of imperial doctors in past dynasties, a special moxibustion instrument for the court-'tile plate' was invented. The imperial doctors use multiple tiles to moxibustion on the human du meridian at the same time. In the process of moxibustion, it is like a fire dragon spinning around, with great effect, which can make the body rise and spread all over the body, especially like a real dragon protector. This is a comfortable, safe and effective health care method. This moxibustion method is named "Dragon Moxibustion". Later, it has been extended by the court doctors of past dynasties, and it is regarded as court mysticism, which is kept secret. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the acupuncture department of the imperial court was abolished and the dragon moxibustion method disappeared in the imperial court because the hospital attached importance to decocting drugs and despised acupuncture. In the end, this therapy slowly flowed into the people. After liberation, the state attached great importance to the development of acupuncture, and excavated and sorted out a large number of documents. After years of clinical practice, arrangement, induction, reform and innovation by famous Beijing acupuncture and massage masters Tong Shaowu, Han Wenxi and Fan Changwei, the palace moxibustion therapy dragon moxibustion finally reappeared in front of the world with a brand-new look.
