When it comes to moxibustion, people who are not familiar with it will think it is acupuncture. In fact, moxibustion is a branch of acupuncture. Acupuncture, including acupuncture, aims to cure diseases and preserve health by stimulating human acupuncture points. Acupuncture belongs to physical therapy, and the material of moxibustion is wormwood, which has the reputation of "king of hundred herbs" and "returning to grass". Therefore, moxibustion can play a dual role in drug therapy and physical therapy.

Moxibustion is a kind of natural therapy for external use, and there are basically no side effects. There is a folk saying that moxibustion can cure all diseases for many years, which means that moxibustion has an unexpected effect on treating old chronic diseases. The 14th volume of "The Secret of Outer Taiwan" records: "Taking decoction, acupuncture and steaming as the key to prevent wind and evil, all of them can get sick and burn more moxa, and their functions, acupuncture, medicine, soup and powder are unique." The so-called "needle does not do, moxa is appropriate" is the truth.

Acupuncture mainly stimulates human acupoints through needles, which will make people feel sour, numb, bloated and painful. Moxibustion therapy relies on lighted moxa sticks or moxa sticks to fumigate and bake at corresponding acupoints of human body, and its own pharmacological function makes people feel carefree and relaxed. Therefore, it is suggested that some people who are afraid of pain choose moxibustion therapy.

Long-term moxibustion can strengthen the body resistance, eliminate diseases, maintain health, strengthen the body resistance and eliminate pathogens, and prolong life. It is very suitable for cold constitution and aphrodisiac health preservation. After the long summer, the weather gradually turns hot, which is the best time for moxibustion. As the ancients said, it is just at this time that winter diseases are cured in summer.
