Cerebral infarction is usually caused by ischemia and hypoxia in the brain due to the obstacle of blood supply to the brain, which leads to ischemic necrosis or soft foci of local brain tissue. Mugwort 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 cannot cure cerebral infarction. Once the diagnosis of cerebral infarction is clear, it is necessary to carry out the next step of treatment under the guidance of neurologists in regular hospitals, and usually the treatment includes thrombolytic therapy, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, antiplatelet, lipid-lowering, stabilizing plaques, as well as nutritive brain cells and other symptomatic supportive treatments. In the recovery period of cerebral infarction can use moxibustion to carry out treatment to help the recovery of cerebral infarction, but moxibustion treatment needs to be carried out under the guidance of professional Chinese medicine practitioners.
