Can moxibustion dredge meridians? Where can I do it?
Yes, you can. You can do it at the Moxibustion Health Center.

Recommended scheme:

Buy moxa sticks home, and you can also have moxibustion at home. The following are the precautions for moxibustion at home:

1. When applying moxibustion, light one end of the moxa stick, aim at the acupuncture point or the affected part, and smoke moxibustion at a distance of about 2-3 cm from the skin.

2. Fumigation and baking should make patients feel local warmth without burning pain. Generally, each part is moxibustion for 5-7 minutes until the skin is red.

3. Commonly used acupoints for moxibustion at home: Zusanli (3 inches below the external knee, the outer edge of tibia 1). Regular moxibustion at Zusanli can strengthen the spleen and stomach, promote digestion and absorption, and enhance immunity. Long-term moxibustion at Zusanli can also prevent stroke. Shenque (Shenque point is located in the middle of navel), moxibustion at Shenque point often has the functions of warming yang, benefiting qi, tonifying kidney and strengthening spleen.

4. Concentration and patience: Pay attention to concentration when applying moxibustion, and don't distract attention when applying moxibustion, so as to avoid moxa sticks moving, not at acupoints, hurting the skin and wasting time. For health moxibustion, we should persist for a long time, and occasionally moxibustion can not achieve the expected effect.

5. On the one hand, the posture should be suitable for the needs of moxibustion. At the same time, it should be noted that the posture should be comfortable and natural, and find acupuncture points as needed.

6, pay attention to fire prevention, many modern clothes are made of chemical fiber, down and other textures, easy to burn. Therefore, when moxibustion is applied, we must pay attention to prevent the fire from falling, especially when moxibustion with moxa sticks is used to prevent the moxa sticks from rolling down. After moxibustion, the lighted end of the moxa stick can be stuffed into a bottle with a diameter slightly larger than that of the moxa stick to facilitate extinguishing.

7. Pay attention to keep warm to prevent heatstroke, because part of the body surface should be exposed when moxibustion is applied, keep warm in winter, and prevent heatstroke every day in summer. At the same time, pay attention to adjust the indoor temperature and turn on the ventilator in time to exchange fresh air.

8, step by step, the first use of moxibustion should pay attention to the amount of stimulation, first a small amount, small dose, such as the use of small moxa sticks, or moxibustion for a short time, less intensity. Increase the dose in the future. Don't start with a large dose.

9. Pay attention to the adjustment of moxibustion temperature: For children with sensitive person's skin or children, put the index finger and middle finger on both sides of the moxibustion site to sense the temperature of the moxibustion site, so as not to burn the skin, and the effect is good.
