Matters needing attention after moxibustion
1, do not wash your hands or bathe in cold water for half an hour after moxibustion. After moxibustion, the pores of the whole body are open and easy to catch cold;
2. After moxibustion, drink more warm water than usual (never drink cold water or ice water), which is convenient for detoxification and the water temperature can be slightly higher. You can't drink cold boiled water, not even in summer. Help the excretory organs to excrete toxins from the body;
3. You can't take a bath immediately after moxibustion. For the same reason. Under normal circumstances, moxibustion is carried out after bathing. Or after moxibustion, take a bath a few hours later.
4. After moxibustion, if you feel tired, it is normal to have insufficient energy. At this time, the body is resting, but you can have a rest without being too tired.
