Nowadays, for many people, tonifying kidney is a topic of great concern. Many people feel that they have kidney deficiency, so they don't go to the hospital for diagnosis and start to make up. Various methods have been tried, but the situation has not improved. So, is there something wrong with the method? Of course, it takes a process to tonify the kidney, and it will only be effective if it is slowly conditioned. If you want to tonify kidney and prolong life, moxibustion therapy is a good choice.

Said: "What acupuncture does, moxibustion does." On the one hand, it shows that moxibustion has special curative effect, acupuncture has its own advantages and moxibustion has its own scope of application; On the other hand, moxibustion can also make up for the deficiency of acupuncture drugs. When acupuncture drugs are ineffective, moxibustion can often achieve satisfactory results.

Inverse moxibustion

A toast to your health.

Health moxibustion, called "reverse moxibustion" in ancient times, is a health care method of disease-free moxibustion. Moxibustion acts on some specific acupoints on the human body to achieve the purpose of harmonizing qi and blood, dredging meridians and nourishing the five internal organs, thus achieving the purpose of preventing diseases, eliminating pathogens and prolonging life. This is called health moxibustion. For example, Dou Cai's Huangdi Neijing in the Song Dynasty said: "A person's old age has yang decline, his hands and feet can't be warm, and his movements are difficult. If you breathe, you will not die, and if you are angry, you will have yang. Therefore, when the yang is exhausted, the heart dies. When people are not sick, they often moxibustion Guanyuan, Qihai, Mingmen and Zhongwan. Although they are not immortals, they can live for a hundred years. "

Why moxibustion can tonify kidney?

Deficiency of kidney yang is a major aspect of kidney deficiency. Kidney, also known as Yuanyang, is the true yang of the whole body, the motive force of the yang activity of the internal organs, and the foundation of yang. For example, Bian Que's heart book "Yang Qi, if the sun rises, it will lose its life" Zhang Jingyue said: "Everything that is warm is yang; A person's life is Yang. If something happens to the god of the five senses, then the sun is the spirit. "

Other yang in human body, such as heart yang, spleen yang and Wei yang, are based on kidney yang. If the external yang is sufficient, the muscles will be strong, and the camp and health will be harmonious, which can prevent the invasion of external evils. Strengthening the spleen can transport subtle and nourish the whole body; My heart is full of yang, so everything is bathed in sunshine, and my blood and pulse are unobstructed. Therefore, kidney yang is the foundation of life and the foundation of the yang of the five internal organs, that is, "the yang of the five internal organs cannot be separated." Therefore, yang is closely related to human aging and the occurrence of diseases.

"Yang Jing is strong for a thousand years" and "Yang Jing is strong for life". In other words, the main reason why people have diseases and aging is yang deficiency, and the main function of health moxibustion is to nourish yang and benefit its true yin. Therefore, it can prevent and treat diseases, resist aging and prolong people's life.
