In our daily lives, we often have this misunderstanding, thinking that moxibustion and acupuncture are the same treatment method. In fact, there is a big difference between them. Although both are based on the principles of human meridians, acupuncture treats diseases through physical stimulation of acupoints, while moxibustion stimulates acupoints through heat transfer. Through the transfer of heat in the acupoints and meridians, it can achieve the purpose of warming yang, replenishing qi, dispersing cold and relieving pain. The therapeutic effect of moxibustion is very magical, and it was the main means of treating diseases in ancient China. It has the effects of warming yang and replenishing qi, dispelling cold and relieving pain, replenishing deficiency and consolidating collapse, warming the meridians and dredging collaterals, eliminating blood stasis and dispersing nodules, and replenishing the middle and benefiting qi. It can be widely used in internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, and ENT diseases, and is especially effective for mastitis, prostatitis, periarthritis of the shoulder, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervical spondylosis, diabetes, etc. However, due to individual differences among people, there are basically no side effects, so you can use it with confidence. There are often symptoms of insomnia after moxibustion. If insomnia occurs after the first moxibustion, it is also a reaction. At this time, insomnia is mostly accompanied by fatigue, weakness, or drowsiness. But after a period of moxibustion, even if you sleep very little, you will not feel tired and weak. Instead, you will feel energetic because of moxibustion. At this time, don't worry about lack of sleep time, and don't deliberately use sleeping pills to make up for enough sleep time. It mainly depends on whether you have enough energy. Moxibustion Zhongwan will quickly improve the function of the spleen. During the moxibustion treatment, wandering may occur. This is caused by moxibustion regulating the body's functions. Through such self-regulation, various body functions can be quickly restored to achieve the purpose of health care. Here we recommend that you drink plenty of water, which can reduce the inflammation after moxibustion. It is also recommended to eat light food in your daily diet. Do not drink alcohol or smoke, as this will cause the body's internal heat to rise. |
