Water has the ability to irrigate and nourish. According to modern human science research, the distribution structure of human acupuncture points is unique and their functions are mysterious.

Foot bath before moxibustion

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the feet are the root of essence and energy. Foot bath therapy is a method of treating diseases by decocting medicine and soaking and bathing the feet. During the soaking process, in addition to the buoyancy of water and the friction of the movement of water liquid particles on the feet, the main effects are the warming effect of water, the external treatment effect of the medicine and the effect of the foot reflex zone.

Foot bath has three functions: warm water foot bath, external drug treatment and stimulation of foot reflex zones, and these three functions can influence each other. Warm medicines are easily absorbed from the skin, acupoints and respiratory tract, exerting their therapeutic effects. Foot bath can be used as a treatment for internal diseases and external diseases, and can also be used as a bath for various skin diseases. The medicinal bath can use the power of medicine and heat to dredge the meridians, harmonize qi and blood, and achieve the purpose of eliminating evil toxins.
