3. 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 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.
