2. Clinical moxibustion should choose the correct posture, and the patient's posture should be upright and comfortable, which is not only conducive to the accurate selection of acupuncture points, but also conducive to the placement of moxa cone and the smooth completion of moxibustion.
3. Moxibustion is widely used, although it can benefit Yiyang and hurt Yin. Clinically, moxibustion should be used with caution for all diseases such as yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang, excessive pathogenic factors and excessive heat toxicity.
4. When applying moxibustion, scar moxibustion should not be used for facial features, heart area and distribution of great blood vessels. And the acupoints should be used with caution. Pregnant women's abdomen and lumbosacral region should not be moxibustion.
5. The operating room should pay attention to ventilation, keep the air fresh, and avoid excessive smoke and dust, polluting the air and harming the human body. After moxa cone or moxa stick moxibustion treatment, the burning moxa stick must be extinguished to prevent the accident from happening again.
6. When applying moxibustion or warm acupuncture, pay attention to prevent moxa fire from falling off, so as not to burn skin and clothes. In the process of moxibustion, the distance between moxibustion fire and skin should be adjusted in time to master the amount of moxibustion, so as to avoid excessive moxibustion and moxibustion injury.
7. The amount of moxa cone moxibustion is often determined according to the size of moxa cone and the intensity of moxibustion. Generally speaking, the moxa cone with strong physique at the beginning of illness is bigger and stronger. Ai Xi, who is weak after a long illness, should be small and strong. According to the characteristics of the moxibustion site, it is not suitable to apply moxibustion on the head, face and chest. Waist and abdomen moxibustion can be strong; Don't moxibustion at the ends of limbs with thin skin and many bones and muscles; Shoulders and thick skin and full muscles should be big and strong. Moxibustion should be combined with the condition. If it is a cold, the yang will soon be exhausted, and moxibustion without a cauldron will not work; If it is exogenous wind-cold and carbuncle, we should master it moderately, otherwise it will easily lead to the adverse consequences of pathogenic heat and internal depression.
8. For those who are full, tired, hungry, drunk, thirsty, surprised, surprised and angry, use moxibustion therapy with caution. In addition, in recent years, it has been found that a small number of patients are allergic to mugwort, and such patients can adopt non-moxibustion therapy or other acupoint stimulation methods.
