1, the most suitable season for moxibustion therapy in traditional Chinese medicine is summer. Because there are few clothes to wear in summer, moxibustion at home is very convenient even if you don't go to the hospital, unlike moxibustion at home when you take off your clothes in winter, which is easy to catch a cold. Moreover, when the weather is hot, the human body is more sensitive to temperature and is not easy to be burned. Moxibustion can warm meridians, dispel cold and dampness, and tonify human yang. Summer happens to be the time when the yang in nature is the heaviest, and the yang and heat of the two are combined, and the warming effect is stronger. Therefore, moxibustion can achieve the best nourishing effect in the summer with the most sunshine in nature.

2. In terms of time, moxibustion has no special fixed time. You can moxibustion at any time. Before and after meals, once in the morning and once in the evening, as long as you are not too hungry before meals, you can moxibustion for half an hour to an hour after meals, and you can't moxibustion if you are too full and hungry.

3. If it is moxibustion according to the course of treatment, it is best to moxibustion continuously every day for the first three times, each acupoint lasts 15-20 minutes, and then moxibustion every other day 10 days is a course of treatment. Children and the elderly need shorter moxibustion time.

4. Generally speaking, the health care mode of moxibustion is flexible, and the time of moxibustion can be selected according to your actual situation and comfort. Under normal circumstances, the time of moxibustion with moxa sticks can be shorter, and the time of moxibustion with moxa sticks or moxibustion pots can be slightly longer, because it is milder.
