Huangdi Neijing

Many friends want to do their own family health moxibustion, but because there is no doctor's guidance, they don't know how to match points. Just as there are no two identical leaves in the world, due to different eating habits, living environment, congenital inheritance and other factors, everyone's physical condition is different, because moxibustion is the core of Chinese medicine treatment.

Is there a simple and easy-to-learn moxibustion acupoint matching method?

Here's a brief introduction to the way of moxibustion and the way of acupoint matching according to physical fitness, so that everyone can have health moxibustion at home.

In addition to healthy and peaceful physique, Chinese medicine also divides everyone's physique into ten categories according to qi and blood, yin and yang, cold and heat, and excess and deficiency, namely:

Qi deficiency and stagnation

Blood deficiency and blood stasis

Excess-deficiency-heat of yang

Yin deficiency and phlegm dampness

Allergic damp-heat

Each constitution has obvious characteristics. You can test your physique first, and then refer to the appropriate acupoints.

deficiency of vital energy

As the name implies, the constitution of qi deficiency is as dry as a balloon without gas. People with qi deficiency are prone to fatigue, weak voice, shortness of breath, laziness, sweating and colds.

Qi deficiency is mainly heart deficiency, and spleen deficiency is the most common. During moxibustion, you can choose Zusanli, Qihai, Xinshu, Spleen, Shenmen, Neiguan and other points to invigorate qi, soothe the nerves, generate blood and replenish qi.

stagnation of the circulation of vital energy

People with depressed constitution, like cloudy days, may be depressed at any time. Qi stagnation leads to depression, which is usually manifested as depression, fragility and emaciation, but it is prone to irritability. Therefore, it is particularly important to regulate qi and relieve depression.

In moxibustion, Qimen, Taichong, Hegu and Zhongshan can be selected to soothe the liver and relieve depression, and regulate qi. Moxibustion of Ganshu, Neiguan and Shenmen can calm the heart and soothe the nerves and regulate qi.

deficiency of blood

Blood deficiency constitution is due to insufficient blood production, excessive blood loss or decreased blood nourishing function, resulting in pale or sallow complexion, pale lips and nails, blurred vision, hair loss, fatigue, memory loss, palpitation, and dreaminess.

You can choose Zusanli, Gedi, Xue Hai and Shu Tian, which are beneficial to blood metaplasia.

Blood stasis

People with blood stasis constitution generally see qi stagnation and blood stasis, or suffer from cold or indigestion, which leads to poor qi movement in the body and can't drive blood flow, just like freezing, and the body can't be nourished, thus showing dull skin color, easy to grow spots and pigmentation, dull tongue or petechiae, unhappy mood and easy to get angry.

Therefore, it is necessary to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and promote qi and collaterals. You can choose moxibustion at Ganshu, Qimen and Taichong to regulate qi stagnation, and moxibustion at Quchi, Xue Hai, Zusanli and Sanyinjiao to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

deficiency of yang

If a person lacks warmth in his heart, his heart will become cold. So is the body. If the yang in the body is insufficient, it will roar like a cold wind, and you will feel chills, cold hands and feet, muscle weakness and listlessness. You will also have frequent urination, diarrhea, thinning hair, dark circles, decreased libido, excessive leucorrhea and other symptoms.

Yang deficiency constitution is more common in stomach, spleen and kidney. In moxibustion, you can choose the points on Ren meridian, Du meridian and bladder meridian, such as Shenque, Qihai, Guanyuan, Zhongji, Dazhui and Shenshu. Moxibustion can warm yang and dispel cold, and supplement human yang.

True thermal mass

The human body feels heat evil or excessive heat in the body, which leads to yang excess, yin deficiency and hyperactivity.

Often manifested as fear of heat and cold, red face, red eyes, thirst, irritability, difficulty falling asleep, and dreaminess. Often accompanied by sore gums, bad breath, short yellow urine, dry stool and constipation.

This constitution is not suitable for family health moxibustion.

deficiency of yin

If people with yang deficiency roar like cold wind, then people with yin deficiency burn like fire. Yin deficiency is the deficiency of body fluid. Compared with yang, body fluid belongs to yin, just like the spring water of life, nourishing every corner of the body. If too much body fluid is lost, it will cause the body to dry up, the skin will no longer be tender, and the intestine will be like a river without water, which is easy to clog.

Generally speaking, blood deficiency and kidney deficiency are the most common yin deficiency. Friends with yin deficiency usually feel dry mouth and throat, fever in hands and feet, like cold drinks, lack of red tongue and body fluid, insomnia, constipation and irritability. Therefore, nourishing yin is the most necessary. When choosing moxibustion therapy, it is recommended to moxibustion Zusanli, Guanyuan, Gaojia, Taixi, Shenshu, Sanyinjiao, Yongquan, Shenmen and Yinbian.

Yin deficiency often leads to fever, and it is best to do it under the guidance of a doctor.

Allergic substance

Allergic constitution is special, and the main manifestation is allergy. Generally speaking, there are many congenital genetic factors, and diseases such as asthma, urticaria, hemophilia and chronic bronchitis are the most common. Therefore, for people with special physique, attention should be paid to invigorating qi and consolidating exterior, nourishing blood and expelling wind from childhood.

If you choose moxibustion method, you can often moxibustion points such as Fengmen, Shu Fei and Akazawa. Enhance lung function and help prevent allergies.

Phlegm dampness

Phlegm-dampness constitution is generally fat, facial oil is more, easy to sweat, eating fat is sweet and sticky, which will cause high blood pressure and irregular menstruation.

Therefore, the most important thing for people with phlegm-dampness constitution is to strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis, and eliminate phlegm and turbidity. In moxibustion, you can choose acupoints such as Yinlingquan, Guanyuan, Shenshu and Mingmen.

Damp heat constitution

Damp heat constitution, like sauna weather, is inherent in the body and can't take time off. Most of the external manifestations are oily face, bitter taste, yellow fur, acne-prone, heavy weight, lethargy, irritability and impatience. Women tend to have more vaginal secretions, while men tend to have wet scrotum.

In damp heat constitution, moxibustion can be selected from Dazhui, Quchi, Hegu, Zhongwan, Fenglong and Popliteal Nest, so as to broaden the chest, regulate qi, eliminate dampness and clear heat.

Specifically, it is best to distinguish between wet weight and hot weight under the guidance of a doctor.
