Cerebral infarction is usually caused by ischemia and hypoxia in the brain due to impaired blood supply to the brain, which results in localized ischemic necrosis or softening foci in the brain tissue. Moxa has the effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, so it has a certain therapeutic effect on patients with cerebral infarction, but moxibustion does not cure cerebral infarction. Once a cerebral infarction is clearly diagnosed, the next step of treatment needs to be carried out under the guidance of a neurologist in a regular hospital. Usually, the treatment includes thrombolytic therapy, blood circulation, antiplatelet, lipid lowering, plaque stabilization, and symptomatic support therapy such as nutrition of brain cells. During the recovery period of cerebral infarction, moxibustion can be used to help the recovery of cerebral infarction, but moxibustion treatment needs to be carried out under the guidance of a professional herbalist.
