Let's take a look at the benefits of moxibustion. Moxibustion stimulates acupoints and meridians through warmth, which can promote blood circulation, accelerate metabolism and enhance immunity. This has an obvious effect on improving qi and blood circulation and improving body resistance. Moxibustion can also relieve muscle soreness, relieve chronic pain symptoms such as arthritis and cervical spondylosis, and help the body relax and feel comfortable. Many people feel refreshed after using moxibustion.
Just like any other therapy, moxibustion has its disadvantages and potential risks. Moxibustion will produce smoke and dust, which may cause irritation to the respiratory system, especially for people with asthma and allergies. If it is used improperly or moxibustion is carried out in inappropriate parts, it may lead to skin problems such as burns and blisters. Therefore, you must know your physical condition before moxibustion, and ask professionals to guide the operation.
In addition to the above risks, there are some restrictions on the use of moxibustion. For example, pregnant women, hypertensive patients and people with broken skin are not suitable for moxibustion. People with heart disease, lung disease and hyperthermia or hypothermia should also avoid using moxibustion. Therefore, when choosing whether to carry out moxibustion, we must make a careful decision according to our personal situation and consult professional doctors or Chinese medicine practitioners.
As an ancient and effective Chinese medicine therapy, moxibustion has obvious benefits in some aspects. It can promote blood circulation, enhance immunity and relieve some chronic pain symptoms. Moxibustion also has some potential hazards and limitations, especially for some people. Therefore, you must know your physical condition before moxibustion, and ask professionals to guide the operation. Only by using it correctly and choosing the right situation can we fully enjoy the benefits brought by moxibustion.
