Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sexual function is a physiological function that can only be realized under the synergistic effect of viscera, meridians, tissues and organs, and it is most closely related to kidney, which has the functions of storing essence, governing and reproducing. Kidney yang deficiency and qi deficiency are the most common syndromes of sexual dysfunction. Therefore, warming kidney and strengthening yang, nourishing waist, strengthening bones and muscles and benefiting blood vessels have become one of the main principles of treating impotence in traditional Chinese medicine. Dishen acupoint is located at the midpoint of the horizontal bar at the junction of thumb and palm, which is an experienced point in clinical treatment of impotence. It is a strange point outside the meridians, which has the effect of dredging the meridians and strengthening the waist and kidney. During the treatment, you can massage the acupoints with the thumb of the other hand, and then use the moxa stick or cigarette at hand to warm moxibustion at Dishen point for 10~ 15 minutes, and repeat the above steps with the other hand.
Moxibustion at Dishen point combined with kidney-tonifying points such as Mingmen point and Guanyuan point is more effective. According to (Yu)
