The traditional moxibustion in ancient times is direct moxibustion. There are only two states of wormwood: burning and non-burning. If you don't burn it, the medicinal properties of wormwood can't be exerted, so there is a saying that there is no smoke and no wormwood. However, the emergence of moxibustion equipment broke this situation and made moxa sticks have a third state. Baking the moxa stick to a state close to the critical point of combustion, the medicinal properties were released to a considerable extent, but it did not burn, which solved the problem that smoke and odor bothered a considerable number of patients.

2. If the therapeutic effect of moxa sticks is unique, it is undeniable that the drugs released by burning are stronger than those released by non-burning under the same other conditions. But this treatment process involves many other factors, not just the problem of burning or not. Under the condition of stable initial heat, natural burning moxa sticks have better effect than baking moxa sticks without burning. However, the moxibustion instrument also has the curative effect of far infrared rays, and the combination of these two things is definitely stronger than the simple moxa stick burning effect.

3. When the natural burning moxa sticks reach the middle and late stage, the burning intensity gradually weakens until the heat disappears and the effect disappears. Although the effect of baking moxa will be weakened, the effect of far infrared rays will not be weakened, but will be strengthened with the increase and diffusion of temperature, so that the weakened effect of moxa will be consolidated, thus achieving the continuity and stability of the effect.

The most important point is that traditional moxibustion is plagued by a series of troublesome problems such as smoke, smell, preparation in advance, cleaning and washing afterwards, which makes most people who have no perseverance unable to persist, so its application scope is quite limited, and it is also very expensive to go to health centers. Moxibustion equipment is smokeless and tasteless, and everyone can accept it. It can be started by turning on the switch. It has the advantages of no preparation in advance and cleaning afterwards. It is not only suitable for health centers, but also suitable for family use. An instrument can be used by the whole family for 5-8 years.

Let's calculate an account: suppose the effect of traditional moxibustion is? Prophase+anaphase = 10+3, while moxibustion instrument is 5+5. Other things being equal, we assume that the effect of the instrument is lower than that of traditional moxibustion.

But the traditional moxibustion method is very troublesome, and many people can't stick to it every day. So suppose you do it three times a week, and the total effect is 13*3=39. However, the moxibustion instrument can be done at any time and persisted every day, so it is 10*7=70. Also, only about half of people can accept the traditional moxibustion method, and less than half are really willing to use it. Suppose a family of four people and two people accept it, then the effect value of one week is 39*2=78, and everyone accepts the moxibustion instrument, then the effect value of one week is 70*4=280.

Add up all the factors that affect the final result of moxibustion treatment, and you can see how different a tool that is convenient for large-scale promotion and use is from the inconvenient traditional method! Needless to say, the shortcomings of traditional moxibustion are difficult to overcome, but the convenience of moxibustion instrument can be quickly popularized in the family!

So, if the effect is a seed and the result is a big tree, then soil, sunshine, air, water, fertilizer and so on. To make this seed grow into a big tree. No matter how good the seeds are, they will take root and sprout and grow into trees forever. No matter how good the traditional moxibustion is, people can't stand it, don't accept it, or even accept it, but it's not convenient to stick to it. Without the length of time, frequency, and the length of a single time, can we get the final result?

Finally, traditional moxibustion tools can only be thrown away after use, but what about the equipment? The whole family can use it for 5-8 years. See here, which one do you choose?
