1. The struggle between good and evil
Reaction: acid, numbness, swelling, pain and itching.
It shows that the qi of meridians in the body is stimulated and automatically fights against the evil of pathological changes. For a simple example, the water pipe is blocked. If you want to dredge, you will encounter resistance and expand. Human blood vessels and meridians are the same. When the yang spirit enters and meets the yin evil, there will be a situation in which the good and evil are at war locally, and our human body will feel sour, numb, bloated, painful and itchy. If there is toxin or inflammation in the body, you will feel pain. Itching is due to the reaction of heavy moisture, heavy heat and dampness. For example, gynecological inflammation may cause mild abdominal pain, and patients with gastritis may have stomachache. When there is a damp and cold moxibustion Shenque (navel) in the intestine, you will feel that the rumbling in the stomach is a benign reaction of yang entering the body. Sticking to moxibustion will disappear and your body will get better.
2. Exogenous pathogens
Reaction: wind, cold, cold, wet, itchy, hot.
This shows that because the body has enough menstrual gas, the sick gas has begun to be excreted. At this time, if the body is too cold, it will feel chilly, and if the humidity is too heavy, there will be water droplets in some parts. Like sweating, palms or soles of feet are common parts.
3. Ai Huo Shun Jing
Moxibustion is the best expression of moxibustion. There are three manifestations: thermal expansion, thermal penetration and heat transfer. I feel that everything near the acupoints where moxibustion is done is hot, or that warm gas spreads all over the body along the meridians. For example, if you do moxibustion in Zusanli, the hot air will pass down and feel the calf. It is moxa fire along the meridian, indicating that the qi of meridians in the body is activated and promotes circulation.
Fourth, show a sense of venting.
Eight strange meridians are unblocked. Dantian is warm all day, not afraid of cold in winter and heat in summer.
Moxibustion is diversified when it appears, sometimes like ants crawling, sometimes like running water, sometimes like cold air blowing, sometimes flickering. According to the different changes of moxibustion feeling, it can be summarized as four different effects of moxibustion in different periods. Everyone's sense of moxibustion appears at different times. Some people may feel moxibustion after moxibustion 1 or 2 times, and some people have no moxibustion feeling after moxibustion 1 course. The human body is different, and it is impossible for everyone to have a fixed standard, so it is extremely wrong to judge whether one's moxibustion is effective according to others' moxibustion feeling.
The appearance of moxibustion feeling indicates the effect of moxibustion, which is mainly related to the strength of healthy qi of the moxibustion recipient, the operation method of the moxibustion giver and the environment of moxibustion.

Reaction of dispelling wind and dispelling cold According to clinical observation, most patients have the reaction of dispelling wind and dispelling cold, such as sneezing, runny nose, cold, sore throat, joint pain and farting. , or head and limbs chills, or even whole body or bust chills. Two beds and a thick quilt are useless. The temperature is still normal, and the reaction duration varies from one to two days or three to five months. This is the reaction of cold on the body surface after moxibustion, and it is also the cold in the viscera on the body surface. Generally, this reaction is more serious in winter and spring. This reaction shows that the body is seriously yang-deficient, so it is necessary to continue moxibustion, and at the same time cooperate with the auxiliary treatment methods such as scraping or massage on the affected area to expel cold evil as soon as possible. This reaction usually disappears when it rains in summer. However, if the cold evil in the body is not exhausted, this reaction will still occur in other seasons, so it is very important to insist on moxibustion. Maybe we should really ask for three years of love for seven years of illness. For patients with severe cold pathogen, it takes three years or more of intermittent moxibustion. Moxibustion is a slow job!
43. The reaction of soothing the liver and relieving depression is mainly emotional changes, such as fidgeting, seeing no one is pleasing to the eye, being sad or wronged, crying, etc. , often accompanied by hiccups, anal exhaust, pain in the hepatobiliary area and reflex area. Especially female patients with introversion and narrow-mindedness, this reaction often lasts for several hours to 1-3 days, and a few patients can last for several months.

Head, face and limbs edema, half-length edema and even whole body edema, dysuria or frequent urination, turbid and pungent, local or whole body cold sweat, sticky sweat. Moxibustion sensation can be changed from dull to sensitive at first.
45. Most of the reactions related to expelling heat toxin were discharged in the form of itching, carbuncle, fever, eczema-like itching, papules or pustules on the face or body a long time ago, and now they have started again, or they have burned urine or urine. Don't worry, just completely discharge.
46. The reaction related to blood stasis is that the blood stasis in the body surface meridians is discharged by ecchymosis, the blood stasis in the gastrointestinal tract is mostly discharged by dark brown or sauce black stool, while the blood stasis in the heart and lungs is mainly discharged by blood clots with bloodshot sputum, and the blood stasis in the uterus is mostly discharged by menstrual blood, and even organized lumps or carrion. People with hemorrhoids will temporarily have blood in their stools, and the color is very dark.
47. Sleep-related reactions Most people's sleep state will change after moxibustion. Some people feel tired and sleepy after moxibustion, and then suffer from insomnia for several days. Generally, I don't feel tired, dizzy and don't want to eat. Some people have insomnia for ten days, and then they want to sleep all day. The end result is that sleep returns to normal.
Insomnia: insomnia symptoms often appear after moxibustion. If insomnia occurs after the first moxibustion, it is also a reaction. Insomnia is often very tired or sleepy at this time. However, after moxibustion for a period of time, if there is less sleep at this time, there will be no fatigue and weakness, but it will appear energetic because of moxibustion. At this time, don't worry about insufficient sleep time, and don't deliberately use sleeping pills to make up enough sleep time, mainly depending on whether your energy is sufficient.
48. Fever reaction Fever reaction is one of the violent reactions in the whole body. Most of them appear after the self-healing function is fully exerted, indicating that vigorous qi and blood and enhanced physique are the turning point of the body from quantitative change to qualitative change. The average person has a high fever, the temperature is 39-40 degrees, and the reaction lasts for about a week. A small number of patients with low fever have a body temperature of 37.5 to 38 degrees, and the reaction lasts for more than ten days or even one to two months.
49. Other reactions It can be said that the disease that has been suffered may recur many times. Although it is a recurrence, the feelings are generally not as strong as before. People who have suffered from hemorrhoids will also have an attack, and internal hemorrhoids will become external hemorrhoids, and they will heal themselves in about ten days and a half.
50. After moxibustion, there is often a reaction of disease aggravation, which is a normal struggle between good and evil. Our human body is a whole, and there are yin and yang here. It is impossible to only allow healthy qi to exist and expel all evil spirits. Then the disease has lived in the body for a long time, and he will not give in easily. So at this time, it is inevitable that there will be a reaction. You use moxibustion to stimulate healthy qi, and if you want to drive me out, I will fight hard first. At this time, the healthy qi is insufficient, but the pathogenic qi is strong, and of course you will have all kinds of discomfort. When you gradually moxibustion, you accumulate a lot of healthy qi in your body, and evil spirits will gradually be driven out of your body.
5 1, the wandering phenomenon of moxibustion, sometimes when we are in the middle of moxibustion, we will feel discomfort in the liver area or upper abdomen. This is probably because your liver has hidden dangers or your stomach has diseases, and moxibustion will take the initiative to help you adjust. This is the wandering function of moxibustion. Therefore, our body has the function of self-regulation. As long as you adjust, these will do. If you moxibustion Guanyuan point, it may reflect your hidden trouble in gynecology or prostate, or some diseases of reproductive system. The ups and downs of yin and yang in the human body have their fixed laws. When the vitality is gradually sufficient, of course, Yin and Yang will operate according to its laws, and the rising will naturally rise and the falling will naturally fall. There is no need to artificially adjust the ups and downs.
52, the phenomenon of moxibustion getting angry, many people will be thirsty after moxibustion, which is also a reaction of moxibustion. This phenomenon shows that yin and yang are adjusting and yang is invincible. Drink more boiled water at this time. At this point, the patient will feel abnormal dry throat, which is an inevitable symptom when the pathogenic factors (cold pathogens) gradually disperse (where the pathogenic factors are driven away, there will be so-called inflammation in western medicine). At this time, many Chinese medicine experts will think that moxibustion has gone too far and will stop treatment immediately, which will make the work fall short. This should be moxibustion at Zusanli and Yongquan points to reduce fire and drink plenty of water. Stop moxibustion or moxibustion every other day if necessary, and such symptoms will soon disappear.
53. The body is allergic after moxibustion. Many people have a lot of rashes after moxibustion. At this time, they think they are allergic. In fact, these symptoms are all manifestations of true yang qi and qi driving cold evil. It is also the reaction of pathogenic factors on the body surface. If moxibustion is stopped at this time, pathogenic factors will enter the interior and erode the viscera. If the skin is serious at this time, bloodletting therapy can be used to make the evil out. Blood can be bled at Dazhui, Foot Taiyang Bladder Meridian, Weizhong point and other points to give the source of the disease.
Second, matters needing attention
1、? If you are too hungry or tired, you shouldn't do moxibustion. /kloc-it is best to moxibustion after meals after 0/hour. If you are not very hungry, moxibustion before meals is also ok.
2、? People who are drunk should not be moxibustion.
3、? During the menstrual period of women, normal people should stop moxibustion, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea or a small amount of moxibustion. Generally, moxibustion maintenance should be started 7 days before menstruation. In addition, people who die of blood are prohibited from moxibustion.
4. If you plan to get pregnant, don't moxibustion without taking contraceptive measures (when traditional moxa sticks are moxibustion in the abdomen, the high temperature in the abdomen is not conducive to the survival of sperm and has an impact on the fetus! However, the moxibustion instrument we use is electronic constant temperature moxibustion, and the highest temperature in contact with the skin will not exceed 55 degrees, so it has no effect on the first and second trimesters.
5、? Drink warm water before and after moxibustion, pay attention to keep warm and don't blow cold air, and choose moxibustion in a relatively quiet environment.
6, it is best to close your eyes when moxibustion, don't chat with others, watch TV or play mobile phones. Don't be distracted, concentrate. Instead of doing other things while moxibustion, it is better to concentrate on moxibustion and feel the heat of moxibustion.
7. Although moxibustion has many functions, it is not omnipotent. When you feel unwell, you should go to the hospital first to check what the problem is. You can't try to solve it through moxibustion no matter where you feel uncomfortable.
8. Moxibustion needs good living habits if it wants to have a good effect. Don't think that moxibustion can preserve health and cure diseases anyway, so I can do whatever I want without staying up late and paying attention to my diet. If you have such an idea, no amount of moxibustion can help you.
9. Moxibustion sequence: "Qian Jinfang" records: "Where moxibustion is first yang and then yin, first left and then right, first up and then down." This is the order of moxibustion. If there are acupoints at the top, bottom, front and back, then moxibustion at the Yang meridian first, and then moxibustion at the Yin meridian. Moxibustion on the upper part first, then moxibustion on the lower part; Moxibustion on the left first, then moxibustion on the right. That is, first back, then chest and abdomen, first head and body, then limbs, in turn. There is no harm in inducing yin from yang, so you can't moxibustion against chaos. If you don't pay attention to the order, there will often be sequelae or uncomfortable feelings of facial fever, dry throat and dry mouth after moxibustion. Even if there is no such reaction, moxibustion should be done from top to bottom, which is the same as acupuncture and moxibustion. Order is not chaotic and will not be forgotten.
When moxibustion navel, air circulation should be maintained, and the body and mind should be quiet, so that the air can circulate evenly throughout the body and reach the limbs.
10, in the process of moxibustion, some people get quick results, while others get slow results. These are all normal. Because everyone's physique is different, the degree of illness is different, and the recovery ability is different, which directly affects the effective time of moxibustion. Therefore, there is no fixed effective standard for moxibustion.
1 1, before and after moxibustion, drink a cup of warm water (never drink cold water or ice water) which is a little higher than your body temperature, which will help to expel toxins from your body. Eating is forbidden during moxibustion. Do not wash your hands or bathe in cold water within 1 hour after moxibustion. If there are special circumstances, be sure to wash your hands and take a bath with hot water above body temperature in a short time. Conditioning recipes after moxibustion: After moxibustion, you should avoid catching a cold, you should not be too cautious in your seven emotions, and the cold and mellow taste is inevitable, but light food is the most suitable.
12, the time of moxibustion, Ai Yisheng 360 moxibustion instrument moxibustion at each point for 30-50 minutes. The foot moxibustion instrument is used for 30 minutes each time, which can be appropriately extended according to one's physical condition.
13, Ai Yisheng 360 moxibustion instrument, the temperature is adjusted to 180 degrees during moxibustion, and the distance from the instrument to the acupoints can be selected according to the body feeling to make you feel more comfortable. The temperature of the foot moxibustion instrument can be adjusted to 130- 180 degrees according to the body feeling.
14, users, adults and children can use it.
Maintenance moxibustion: people over 50 years old (yang deficiency constitution) can moxibustion every day. 20-40 years old (yang deficiency constitution) 2-3 times a week. Weekly 1 time or weekly 1 time for people aged 6-20.
Moxibustion to recuperate diseases: People who are seriously ill must have heavy moxibustion, more moxibustion and more moxibustion. Usually 10- 15 times is a course of treatment. During a course of treatment, you can moxibustion every day or every other day. After a course of treatment, the next course of treatment can be continued at intervals of 3-5 days. There is no requirement for people with yang deficiency constitution to take acupuncture points, and it is best for people with yin deficiency constitution to take acupuncture points at the lower jiao every time.
