How to effectively use moxibustion on the navel to lose weight

Moxibustion is a method of using moxa sticks made from mugwort leaves to smoke and roast various acupuncture points on the body. It has a very good health-care effect, and moxibustion on the navel can also help lose weight. So how can we make moxibustion on the navel to lose weight effectively?

Ginger moxibustion: promote circulation, reduce fat, keep out the cold and protect the stomach and intestines

Moxibustion sticks made of moxa release aromatic medicinal power and heat when ignited, which stimulate acupuncture points and disease locations, thereby promoting local blood circulation and activating acupuncture point functions. The Shenque point where the navel is located is an in-line location with the internal organs and tissues. Ordinary moxibustion can relax the meridians and promote blood circulation, but for weak stomach and local obesity caused by a weak constitution, ginger slices need to be added.

Method: Find a relatively wide piece of old ginger, the size of which should cover your belly button. Use a knife to cut it into thin slices 2-3mm thick. Use a fine needle to poke many small holes in the ginger slices to facilitate the penetration of the medicine. After cleaning the belly button, you can apply some skin care products first. After completely relaxing, place the ginger slices on the belly button, light the moxa sticks, and place them in the moxibustion box on the ginger slices. The heat will accelerate the combination of aromatherapy medicine and ginger slices, and enter the human body directly through the Shenque point. This method can effectively accelerate blood circulation in the body, quickly burn fat while enhancing immunity and preventing disease.

Salt moxibustion: anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, fat burning, regulating meridian metabolism

Salt is a very unique neutral substance. Adding it to bath items to make bath salts can effectively kill bacteria on the surface of the skin and clean the oil and dirt on the surface and deep layers of the pores. If you make a medicine bag out of coarse sea salt and apply it to the swollen and inflamed areas with heat, it can also have the effect of reducing inflammation and swelling. Using salt with moxibustion is a very ancient therapy, which is very effective for girls who have less antibodies in their bodies, often suffer from inflammation, and are bloated and edematous.

Method: Place coarse salt in gauze, and spread it flat enough to cover your belly button. Wrap the gauze tightly to prevent the salt from falling out. Light the moxa stick and apply heat 3-5 cm away from the salt bag. Salt is a substance that can absorb heat, so you will slowly feel your navel getting hot. Moxibustion aromatherapy enters the internal organs from the Shenque point through the salt particles, which can effectively relieve inflammation inside and outside the body, accelerate local blood circulation, and regulate the metabolic operation of the meridians.
