Warm stimulation can make local skin hyperemia, telangiectasia, enhance local blood circulation and lymphatic circulation, relieve and eliminate smooth muscle spasm, strengthen local skin tissue metabolism, and promote the dissipation and absorption of pathological products such as inflammation, adhesion, exudate and hematoma. It can also cause the diffusion of inhibitory substances in cerebral cortex, reduce the excitability of nervous system, and play a sedative and analgesic role; At the same time, heating can also promote the absorption of drugs.
Moxibustion can warm meridians and dispel cold.
The normal life activities of human body depend on the function of qi and blood. The movement of qi leads to the circulation of blood, and the cessation of qi leads to the cessation of blood. The popularity of meridian blood gas is entirely due to the promotion of "Qi".
Various reasons, such as "cold leads to qi stagnation and heat leads to qi disease", can affect the prevalence of blood gas and cause various diseases. While warm is slippery, cold is astringent, that is to say, qi and blood circulation has the characteristics of warm dispersing and cold coagulating.
Therefore, all diseases with blood stasis and no heat can be treated with warming qi.
Through the warm stimulation of moxibustion on meridian points, it can warm meridians and dispel cold, strengthen the operation of qi and blood, and achieve the purpose of clinical treatment. Therefore, moxibustion can be used for arthralgia and diarrhea caused by blood stasis and cold, and the effect is very remarkable.
Moxibustion can activate qi and dredge collaterals.
Meridians are distributed in all parts of the human body, including internal organs and external tissues such as muscles and bones. In a normal body, qi and blood circulate endlessly in the meridians and run in sequence. If wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness, fire and other external factors invade the human body or local qi and blood, and the meridians are blocked, there will be symptoms such as swelling and pain and a series of dysfunction.
At this time, moxibustion-related acupoints can play the role of harmonizing qi and blood, dredging meridians and balancing functions, and can be used clinically for sores, boils, frostbite, infertility, sprain and contusion, etc. , especially surgery and traumatology.
Moxibustion can strengthen yang and strengthen the body.
Life depends on Yang Qi. If you get what you want, you will live, but if you lose what you want, you will die. Therefore, yang failure leads to yin excess, yin excess leads to cold syncope, or Yuan Qi deficiency leads to depression and weak pulse.
Because Artemisia argyi leaves are pure yang, fire belongs to yang, and the two yang are combined into one, which can often play the role of supporting yang, restoring yang and saving lives. Clinically, it is often used for the first aid of stroke, acute abdominal pain, diarrhea and other emergencies.
Moxibustion can raise yang and relieve depression.
Due to Yang Qi's weakness, it can lead to deficiency in the upper part and deficiency in the lower part, depression due to qi deficiency, proctoptosis, prolonged diarrhea, metrorrhagia, slippery fetus and so on. Moxibustion can warm and lift yang, prevent miscarriage and consolidate menstruation, and it is also effective for Yang Qi's weak and irregular menstruation, so that the body function can be restored to normal.
Moxibustion can detoxify and clear heat.
Moxibustion can induce heat with heat and make it go out. Moxibustion can dispel cold and clear heat, which shows that it has a two-way adjustment effect on the original functional state of the body. Especially with the increase of moxibustion and the expansion of clinical scope, this function is more and more recognized by people.
Moxibustion can prevent diseases and protect health.
Moxibustion not only has therapeutic effect, but also has disease prevention and health care functions.
There is a folk saying that "Li San Chang will not do anything for those who want health" and "Li San Moxibustion will stop all disasters and diseases". Because moxibustion can warm yang and tonify deficiency, moxibustion at Zusanli and Zhongwan can make stomach qi erupt, and the stomach is a sea of water valleys, so the five internal organs are affected, and stomach qi erupts, so qi and blood are full; Mingmen is the true fire of human body and the foundation of human beings; Guanyuan and Qihai are places where Jingxue is stored. Acupoint moxibustion can make people feel full of stomach qi, Yang Qi and essence and blood, thus enhancing the body's resistance, making diseases and pathogens difficult to commit, and achieving the purpose of disease prevention and health care. In modern times, the disease prevention and health care function of moxibustion has become one of the important health care methods.
Moxibustion can prolong life.
Guanyuan, Qihai and Zusanli are important acupoints for human health. Moxibustion once a day can regulate and improve human immune function and enhance people's disease resistance.
Bian Que wrote in the book Heart Sutra in Song Dynasty: "When people are not ill, they often moxibustion Guan Yuan, Qi Hai, Ming Guan and Zhong Wan. Although they can't live forever, they can live for a hundred years. " ? Especially for women, after moxibustion at these three points, they feel refreshed and radiant, and the whole body, especially the lower abdomen, is very comfortable (this feeling is obvious after moxibustion for half a month).
Aijiuke beauty beauty
Moxibustion is the most effective means to eliminate fatigue, restore vitality, replenish physical strength and balance yin and yang.
Moxibustion beauty, cosmetic beauty and surgical beauty are two different concepts, one is essential and the other is superficial. Cosmetics can hide your shortcomings, surgery can transform your structure and satisfy your temporary vanity, but these can't give you real health. Health can keep you young, radiant, quick-thinking and responsive, which is another kind of health beauty at different levels.
Although moxibustion therapy is simple and easy to operate, if you don't pay attention to it in the specific operation process, there may be accidents.
Therefore, we must pay attention to the following points when moxibustion:

2, pay attention to the time of moxibustion, it is recommended to moxibustion once or twice a day, each time 15 minutes to 20 minutes, the time can not be too long, so as not to burn the skin, nor too short, so as not to affect the curative effect;
3, the distance during moxibustion, the distance should not be too close, so as not to burn, nor too far, so as not to reach the temperature;
4, excessive fatigue, hunger, satiety, drunkenness, hyperhidrosis, or avoid moxibustion during menstruation and pregnancy;
5. Keep warm after moxibustion. Don't take a bath, wash your hands, blow air conditioners, blow fans, etc. Avoid catching a cold immediately;
6. Pay attention to hydrating after moxibustion and drink water in time;
7. Don't overeat or overeat after moxibustion;
8. Due to the difference in dosage and personal physique, it is normal for the skin to be red and itchy after use, and even blisters and moxibustion sores appear.
