Extended data:
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when the human body's vital qi is insufficient and its resistance drops, it will become a pathogenic factor, infringing on the human body and causing diseases. There are usually two kinds of pathogenic dampness, one is external dampness and the other is internal dampness. In a word, no matter what kind of damp evil it is, it will cause people to have symptoms such as loss of appetite, abdominal distension and fullness, accompanied by a series of symptoms such as listlessness, lethargy, lethargy and unwillingness to drink water.
People with heavy moisture in the body can moxibustion Zhongwan point (4 inches above the umbilicus) 10 ~ 15 minutes, which has the effects of invigorating the middle warmer, invigorating qi, promoting qi circulation and promoting blood circulation, and can effectively relieve stomach discomfort.
In addition, Fenglong point (8 inches above the lateral ankle tip, outside Tiaokou point, two fingers away from the front edge of tibia) and Quchi point (the lateral end of elbow transverse stripes, elbow flexion, and the midpoint of the connecting line between Chize point and the lateral epicondyle of humerus) also have a good dampness-removing effect, and moxibustion can be often used at ordinary times.
