How often to do moxibustion

The frequency of moxibustion cannot be generalized, but needs to be considered according to the patient’s disease, physical condition and other factors, and the diagnosis and treatment. If the disease is chronic or serious, the frequency of moxibustion can be once a day or once every two days; for acute diseases, 1-2 times a day if the physical condition allows; if the condition is stable or simply for health care moxibustion, the frequency of moxibustion can be reduced, 1-2 times a week. In addition, the frequency of moxibustion is not constant, but will be adjusted according to the patient’s specific conditions after 1-2 courses of treatment. In addition, patients should be treated with moxibustion by a professional doctor according to their specific conditions. Some patients can perform moxibustion on their own, but they should grasp the indications and precautions, and seek medical attention if they are unwell.
