How often is moxibustion appropriate? Do it yourself at home.
Moxibustion is a very health-preserving project, which has the functions of harmonizing qi and blood, warming meridians and dredging collaterals, strengthening body resistance and eliminating dampness, and regulating yin and yang. Generally, when there is no pain in the body, moxibustion can be done every three or four days, which can play a good health care role. If you want to recuperate, you can do moxibustion every day. When you do it for half a month, you can rest for a day or two before continuing moxibustion.

Pay more attention to the time of moxibustion. Generally, moxibustion takes about ten to thirty minutes at a time. If there are some adverse reactions during moxibustion, such as dizziness, chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc., it is necessary to stop moxibustion in time and let the body adapt to it for a little time.

Generally, there is no specific time to do moxibustion. It can be done in the morning, noon and evening, and it can also be done after meals. However, it should be noted that moxibustion cannot be done on an empty stomach or when it is too full, which may easily cause physical discomfort. In the process of moxibustion, we should also be careful not to blow, and we need to close the doors and windows. Pay attention to avoid bathing half an hour after moxibustion, or washing your hands with cold water, which is easy to catch a cold. After moxibustion, you can drink some hot water to help expel toxins from the body. In the process of moxibustion, it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining emotional stability. If you are too upset or sad, moxibustion is not recommended.
