Without heat, there will be no effect, and the three forces of "moxa, medicine and heat" converge.

Mr. Ma Shaoqun thinks that warm moxibustion is a mild method, and its principle is consistent with traditional moxibustion, which has three forces of "moxa, medicine and heat" and has great curative effect. Warm moxibustion is to treat diseases with warmth, "it is ineffective if it is not hot", and wormwood and drugs must be warmed to enter the body.

There are also treatments for chronic diseases, including syndrome differentiation, acupoint selection and moxibustion quantity control.

These understandings were obtained by Mr. Ma Shaoqun from his daily life and clinical experience.

For example, for the understanding of heat, he said that it is very comfortable to burn your body with a warm water bag. In spring, everything grows in a warm climate, and cold creatures shrink and die in winter. Physically, if it is dissolved by thermal energy, it will solidify when it is cold. When a machine is started by thermal energy, its power is infinite. People also need heat energy. I'm no expert, but I think the stomach is the source of heat.

Summarize the experience of moxibustion amount

According to his decades of warm moxibustion experience, Mr. Ma Shaoqun concluded that the amount of moxibustion at each point of warm tube moxibustion should generally be: head and face moxibustion for 20 minutes; Moxibustion on back and limbs for 25 minutes; Moxibustion on chest and abdomen points for 30 minutes.

This is still a cautious and conservative rule, fearing that the first moxibustion will not know the depth, and the moxibustion will be extended at will, causing disadvantages. In fact, patients with chronic diseases have been moxibustion for about 1 month. When moxibustion can be extended in the future, because the stagnation of the whole body meridians has gradually become moxibustion, increasing the amount of moxibustion will generally not cause the phenomenon of excessive internal heat and rejection, but the curative effect will be better.

03

Improved Mars warm moxibustion tube

Mr. Ma Shaoqun improved the traditional Japanese warming moxibustion apparatus to make it cheap and efficient, which is an innovation and contribution to the warming moxibustion apparatus. Ma Shi Wen Moxibustion holds that Ma Shi Wen Moxibustion has the advantages of better heat recovery, acting on the moxibustion site, easy fixation and operation.

04

Diagnostic method of acupressure sensation

In the long-term clinical practice, Mr. Ma Shaoqun explored some palpation rules of visceral diseases. He believes that tenderness is common in diseases of viscera and related acupoints. Therefore, before treatment, acupoint palpation can help doctors understand the attribution of zang-fu organs and meridians, which is beneficial to diagnosis.

For example, touching the spinous process of thoracic vertebra and Shaohai point every 4-7 days is often tender for heart disease, tenderness for touching the spinous process of the ninth thoracic vertebra for liver disease, or swelling and so on. If the tenderness of the relevant acupoints does not disappear after treatment, it cannot be said that the disease has been cured, and the tenderness of these acupoints needs to be treated until it disappears.

05

To accumulate and summarize the symptoms and acupoint indications of warm moxibustion.

Mr. Ma Shaoqun has been engaged in warm moxibustion for more than 50 years, and has accumulated a lot of clinical experience, especially many medical records left behind are still the most important materials for us to study and study the methods of warm moxibustion in Ma Shaoqun. In his spare time, Ma Lao collected and sorted out the indications of acupoints scattered in his works, such as Qihai point and moxibustion to relieve pain after appendicitis.
