What are the effects and contraindications of moxibustion? Want to try home moxibustion

There are many effects of moxibustion, it depends on what acupuncture points you moxibustion. Home moxibustion will indeed be more convenient than going to the moxibustion hall, I have been buying the moxibustion device at home. If it helps, please give it a big thumbs up.

Family moxibustion people suggest that you buy moxibustion moxibustion essence stickers, this moxibustion stickers are not open flame moxibustion, it will not affect the action, you can do whatever you want during moxibustion, it is really convenient and easy to operate, and there is a detailed introduction in it.

I haven't heard of anything, I haven't heard of anything***, no one has anything***.

1. The efficacy and function of moxibustion: regulating qi and blood; Warm meridians; dispelling wind and dehumidification; Fuyang dispelling evil; Promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis; Regulate the balance of yin and yang; Reduces swelling and relieves pain.

2. Contraindications of moxibustion: people with hot constitution, such as mouth ulcers, pustules, and people who are afraid of heat and cold should not undergo moxibustion; During the whole process of moxibustion, you should not drink cold water or eat cold food; During moxibustion, the air conditioner should not be blown, and there should be no air in the room; Do not wash your hands and take a bath immediately after moxibustion, pay attention to keep warm; Moxibustion should not be used when you are too hungry or too full.

1. Many poorly made moxa sticks, impurities, particles and whole leaves are very many, and the production is soft, and it is easy to fall ash during the burning process, and even the whole fire head falls on the body and burns the skin. In addition, the use of moxa moxibustion itself damages the meridians and hurts the skin, so you should choose moxa sticks carefully and do not be greedy for cheapness at the cost of harming the body. The most basic selection criteria:

No impurity particles; It must be made of mugwort; Try to choose tightly rolled moxa sticks.

2 This is a very dangerous detail, and the possibility of the re-ignition of moxa is very high, which can cause a fire of greater or lesser proportions! Many friends who are keen on moxibustion are simply dousing moxa with water, and so far, many people still don't know that this unscientific method of extinguishing moxa is infinitely hidden! Please note that moxa sticks and moxa wool are flammable, and even if you can't see the slightest smoke, Qi You may still be faintly burning in moxa.

This kind of thing has happened again and again, and if you are lucky, you will lose a moxa, a piece of clothing, and a quilt, and if you are unlucky, the loss will be incalculable. So, what's the right way to do it?

You can prepare a stainless steel water cup, tea box, tin bucket, etc., when the moxa sticks are used up, put them in the tool, cover the lid, and let them simmer for 5-10 minutes, so that the moxa sticks can be completely extinguished.

3. After moxibustion, it should be noted that do not take a bath immediately, but also try to avoid wind and cold, even if you have something urgent to go out, you must wrap the moxibustion area. Why is that? Because of the thermal effect of moxibustion, the pores on the surface of the body are opened to the maximum, and taking a bath and blowing the wind immediately will make the wind and cold take advantage of the weakness, just like if you open the door and welcome the wind cold in.

Then the work of moxibustion was done in vain. Remember: After moxibustion, take a shower at least 1 hour later, and avoid wind and cold.

After moxibustion, you can also gently pat the moxibustion part, which has the effect of sealing acupoints, which I'm afraid many people don't know.

4. Ordinary moxa sticks have a good effect, but the smoke is big and slightly choking, and many people can't stand it, so they turn to smokeless moxa sticks and electronic moxibustion, which are not unavailable. But try to use it sparingly. Because the normal moxibustion strip originates from the sun, its nature is strong, and only wormwood has this effect, and other things like peach wood, pear wood, etc. do not have this effect, so there is a saying that "the fire of Yagi is not advisable".

The fire of Yagi is not yet advisable, and smokeless moxibustion belongs to charcoal fire, although charcoal fire is effective for individual diseases, but it itself hurts muscles and bones, consumes yin and blood. Similarly, the effect of electronic moxibustion is not as good as that of traditional moxibustion.

Moxibustion is generally not chosen after 11 p.m.
