The causes of amenorrhea are blood stagnation and blood depletion, blood stagnation is real and blood depletion is deficiency. The actual is due to wind, cold, gas, blood stasis, phlegm blockage and other real evil blockage, the pulse channel is not blocked, the menstrual blood can not go down; deficiency is due to excessive previous menstrual belt, the room is not disciplined, frequent childbirth, or after a serious illness, long illness, resulting in the lack of Yin blood or depletion, the sea of blood is empty, no blood can be down. However, regardless of the actual deficiency, kidney deficiency is the root of the problem.
The method of moxibustion of the umbilical cord, also known as the method of steaming umbilical cord, belongs to the external treatment method of Chinese medicine, and this therapy has good effect on internal, external, gynecological, pediatric, dermatological, male and other diseases. As early as more than 2,000 years ago, during the Yin and Shang dynasties, the witch doctors Taiyi Zhen and Peng Zu already used the method of moxibustion of umbilical cord to treat all kinds of deficiencies. The method is to grind the therapeutic medicine into a very fine powder and fill it in the umbilicus, and then place a moxa pillar on it. The moxibustion method uses different drugs depending on the disease.
Due to the special existence of the navel, the method of moxibustion is very different from the ordinary acupuncture point moxibustion with ginger and moxibustion with medicine cake. The navel is the only pathway between the embryo and the mother at the beginning of life, passing through the twelve meridians and eight channels, and the Taoists regard the navel as the Dantian of the human body, while the navel is located in the abdomen and closely related to the internal organs.
The blood is condensed when it gets cold, and moves when it gets warm. According to the pathogenesis of amenorrhea, moxibustion for the umbilical cord can supplement the deficiencies and diarrhea, warm the uterus and disperse the cold, open up the meridians and activate the channels, so that the menstrual cycle can be self-reliant.
