In order to make the effect better during moxibustion, there are also many precautions. Moxibustion must not be carried out during menstruation, and it is not allowed to get angry or other emotional fluctuations during moxibustion, which will make moxibustion unable to give full play to its efficacy.

It is best to drink a cup of warm water before moxibustion to dredge the stomach and give full play to its benefits to the human body. The benefits of moxibustion on the body are a gradual process, not that it can be effective once. Generally speaking, it takes a month or a year to produce obvious effects on the body.

Precautions for moxibustion:

1, concentration and patience: Pay attention to concentration when moxibustion is applied, and don't distract attention when moxibustion is applied, so as to avoid the moxa stick moving, not at the acupoint, hurting the skin and wasting time. For health moxibustion, we should persist for a long time, and occasionally moxibustion can not achieve the expected effect.

2. Pay attention to the accuracy of body position and acupoints: on the one hand, the body position should meet the needs of moxibustion, and at the same time, it should be noted that the body position should be comfortable and natural, and the position and acupoints should be determined according to the prescription to ensure the effect of moxibustion.

3, fire prevention: many modern clothes are made of chemical fiber, down and other textures, which are easy to burn. Therefore, we must pay attention to fire prevention when moxibustion, especially when moxibustion with moxa sticks, to prevent the moxa sticks from tumbling off. After moxibustion, the lighted end of the moxa stick can be stuffed into a bottle with a diameter slightly larger than that of the moxa stick to facilitate extinguishing.

4, pay attention to keep warm and prevent heatstroke: Because moxibustion should expose some body parts, keep warm in winter and prevent heatstroke in summer, but also pay attention to adjust the indoor temperature, turn on the ventilator and exchange fresh air in time.

5, to prevent infection: suppurative moxibustion or improper moxibustion, local burns may cause sores, resulting in moxibustion sores, must not break the sores, if the infection has been broken, it is necessary to use anti-inflammatory drugs in time.
