? Simply put, warm moxibustion and moxibustion are both traditional Chinese medicine moxibustion methods. The difference is that moxibustion is to ignite moxa sticks, moxibustion directly on the skin, and directly stimulate acupuncture points, which has a more direct effect, but the risk of skin damage is greater; Warm moxibustion is to directly hang moxa sticks at a distance from the skin for treatment. The temperature is not so high and it is easier to bear, but the corresponding speed will slow down and the effect will be just as good, but the process will be longer. There is no difference between moxibustion and warm moxibustion in essence, mainly because of different techniques.
So what are the benefits of moxibustion?
First, the medicine at home will be moldy after moxibustion.
Now people's lives are better, but there are more diseases, so that many people keep all kinds of cold medicines, cough medicines, painkillers, stomach medicines, etc. at home for emergencies. However, people who have been conditioned by moxibustion will find that some people have headaches and brain fever, colds and coughs, minor illnesses and itching, and they don't need to take medicine at all, let alone injections or even infusions. For many common diseases, proper acupoint moxibustion can often be effective in conditioning, which is more effective than taking medicine and avoids the secondary harm caused by drugs. People who have been moxibustion for a long time have not caught a cold for several years, and the medicines at home should be moldy.
Second, after moxibustion, the gap with peers has widened.
People who insist on moxibustion will find that when many people of the same age around them begin to decline and various minor problems frequently strike, they still look healthy, rosy-faced, bright-eyed, and their physical quality is not lost to young people at all, and they are full of pride every day! People around you have a runny nose and cough in winter, but you are safe and sound. You can run with the wind by wearing a sweater. Do you wonder if there is something wrong with you? Moxibustion 10 years may be 5 to 10 years younger than peers. When people of the same age are 40, they look like 50. When you are 40 years old, you look like you are 30 years old, and the gap with your peers is only a little bit wide.
Third, after moxibustion, the hospital was deserted and the cattle had no business.
? Every industry has its off-season and peak season, except hospitals, which are prosperous all year round. There are too many patients. China people can be said to be the favorite in the world to see a doctor. Doctors never worry about having no guests, so that some doctors are too lazy to pay attention to you. However, after moxibustion, the hospital may be deserted. Long-term adherence to moxibustion conditioning can balance the yin and yang of human viscera, ensure the normal operation of qi and blood, preserve healthy qi and prevent evil from drying. Diseases are hard to find, and scalpers who buy tickets for registration may also lose their business.
Fourth, after moxibustion, the yang is not empty, and the blood is not blocked.
? The pressure of modern people is really increasing. They work hard for their families and are busy with their work, so that they are more and more negligent in their living habits, and the loss of yang and blood in their bodies is accelerated and aging is accelerated.
Moxibustion can reconcile yin and yang, support yang, strengthen the foundation, lift yang, and relieve the weakness of yang caused by old age and physical weakness, so that evil spirits are difficult to invade.
Moxibustion can better promote qi and blood circulation, remove blood stasis and dissipate stagnation. "Qi can move when it sees heat, coagulate when it sees cold, and move blood when it sees temperature." Regular moxibustion is helpful to the coordination of qi and blood, the harmony of camp and health, and the harmony of qi and blood!
Fifth, you can't lose your temper after moxibustion.
Many people often lose their temper. Why do you lose your temper?
It's very simple, because the body is weak in vital qi and poor in self-control, and you can't adjust your mood, your temper will come, but you may not lose your temper after moxibustion. Long-term adherence to moxibustion conditioning not only makes people have a good physical state, but also makes people's hearts more peaceful, maintain a indifferent attitude, remain calm, and family members will not quarrel again. Life is sunny and unhappy things are swept away. Where can they lose their temper?
And pulse warming moxibustion tells you four health care points.
Guanyuan point: located 3 inches below the umbilicus, it is the strength of health care. Long-term moxibustion has the effects of regulating qi and blood, tonifying kidney and solidifying essence.
Zhongwan point: located in the midline of the abdomen, 4 inches above the umbilicus, equivalent to the width of five fingers. Moxibustion with moxa stick 10~ 15 minutes or cupping for 20~30 minutes can effectively relieve various symptoms of gastric diseases.
Mingmen point: located below the second lumbar vertebra behind the human body, opposite to the navel, it is the center of human vitality and the place where vitality "stays".
Zusanli point: 3 inches below the outer knee, at the finger of the lateral tibia, moxa stick moxibustion 10~ 15 minutes or cupping for 20~30 minutes. Moxibustion with this method often has the effects of invigorating the spleen and regulating the stomach, strengthening the body resistance, harmonizing qi and blood, eliminating pathogenic factors and preventing diseases.
When it comes to Zusanli, people will inevitably think of the "Zusanli Movement" in Japan, also known as "Li Sanjiu".
? During the Tokugawa shogunate, the Japanese government included Li Sanjiu in the government's measures to improve people's health, and advocated moxibustion for all people, regardless of age, women and children. There are still proverbs in Japan that "those who don't moxibustion Zusanli don't walk" and "those who moxibustion Zusanli, walk like flying".
? In the 1920s and 1930s, a "National Li San Moxibustion Movement" was launched all over Japan. At that time, as a "national disease" in Japan, tuberculosis left the Japanese medical community at a loss. At this time, Dr. Akitaro Yuan proved that moxibustion has special effects on tuberculosis through experimental research. Mintaro himself practiced moxibustion every day and lived to 108 years old. He/kloc-gave people moxibustion after he was over 0/00 years old, which is an example of modern centenarians insisting on moxibustion for health preservation. In fact, the Japanese custom of being good at moxibustion originated from China, especially "moxibustion at Zusanli", a "health secret", which was cherished by ancient and modern medical scientists and health experts.
