Moxibustion is a simple, safe, effective and economical medical technique for the masses. In the Jin Dynasty, Chen Yanzhi wrote a book entitled “Xiao Pin Fang” and strongly advocated moxibustion. He believed that “the needle must be performed by a teacher, and the moxibustion can be applied by any person”, which shows that moxibustion can be operated by anyone. However, in recent years, our medical profession is biased towards acupuncture, and the use of moxibustion seems to be somewhat reduced. It is a great pity that people say: “but see the needle prick disease, do not hear the moxa fragrance”. Moxibustion is an ancient name for moxibustion and moxibustion, which is a method of healing by burning with fire. Xu Shen of the Han Dynasty said on the “Shuowen Jiezi”: “moxibustion, burning also, from the fire sound long, moxibustion is the method of healing, to burn fire with moxa, press and burn also. The meaning of burning. The burning of moxa is called moxibustion, which briefly explains what moxibustion is. It is one of the inventions of our working people, belonging to the scope of the motherland acupuncture. Moxibustion is the use of the heat of moxa fire, burning acupuncture points, through the meridians to regulate the function of the internal organs, maintaining the balance of yin and Yang. This therapy is an independent, automatic, natural two-way adjustment of the human body’s natural potential, which cannot be replaced by any precision instrument, and only adjusts to the abnormal side, so that the low can be adjusted higher and the abnormal can be lowered, without affecting the normal function and without any side effects. Therefore, moxibustion is the safest and best way to treat diseases and health care. Moxibustion is a method of using moxa leaves as raw material to make moxa velvet, which is burned in various ways on certain acupuncture points to directly or indirectly apply appropriate warmth and stimulation to achieve the purpose of healing and health care through the conduction of meridians. In the Qing Dynasty, Wu Yiding said in the “Divine Moxibustion”: “Moxibustion is based on fire, which is hot and fast, soft and rigid, and can eliminate Yin and shade, and is good at entering the internal organs. The pungent aroma of moxa is used as a cone, which can pass through the twelve meridians, enter the three yin, and regulate the qi and blood, so as to cure all diseases, and the effect is like a reverse palm.” This summarizes the characteristics and effects of moxibustion for treating diseases. Moxibustion can not only cure diseases, but also prevent them. The “Preparedness and Urgency of the Thousand Gold Essentials” says: “Eunuchs traveling to Wu and Shu, the body must often be three or two moxibustion, do not make the sores temporarily poor, then the gas of miasma plague and malaria can not be on people.” This means that when you go to Wu and Shu in the south, you should always apply moxibustion on your body to prevent the epidemic from spreading diseases. In modern times, Japanese doctors have applied moxibustion to all units in factories, schools and military as a health care measure. Experimental results have confirmed that moxibustion does have the effect of enhancing physical fitness and preventing diseases. Both acupuncture and moxibustion are administered on meridian points and have something in common, and both are often used in combination, but it must be noted that moxibustion is a unique specialty and cannot be used instead of moxibustion. In the Ming Dynasty, Gong Juzhong said in the book of phlegm fire point snow: “Moxibustion method to remove the disease of the function, it is difficult to enumerate, where the deficiency of cold and heat, light and heavy, far and near, no to be appropriate.” It can be seen that moxibustion has a wide range of applications and is a method worth promoting to prevent and treat diseases.
