Illustration design of moxibustion-the amount of moxibustion is how long it is appropriate for each moxibustion. How to correctly define the amount of moxibustion?

After 90, it's time to exercise! Six moxibustion box reviews to see which one is the most worth buying? Time flies, time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the post-90 s have entered their thirties. As a post-80s generation, I always felt that the post-90s generation was still young, but I didn't know that they were all old enough to get married and start a business. Seeing that they are almost in their fourth year, I can only sigh that time flies. After this epidemic, people pay more and more attention to health, and medical care is getting younger and younger. After 80' s and 90' s, the attention to medical care has risen to an unprecedented height. 996' s working condition and irregular lifestyle have made us put aside our last stubbornness and face the health crisis from people to middle age.

In fact, besides soaking Lycium barbarum in a thermos cup, there are many ways to keep fit. Today, I want to share with you a very good health-preserving method-moxibustion, which has a very long history and can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty. I won't go into details about moxibustion here. Interested friends can find out for themselves. Perhaps everyone's concept of moxibustion still stays on the same open flame moxibustion as the above picture. In fact, this is no longer the case. Moxibustion can also become very fashionable and avant-garde, and technology has redefined moxibustion.

There are many portable moxibustion instruments on the market now, which are portable, safe, smokeless and particularly convenient to use. This time, six moxibustion box models were purchased for horizontal evaluation, namely Weixin, Ji 'anshi, Zuodian, Jindao, Echo and Bao Yun. These six moxibustion box models are different in moxibustion mode, portability and price, so which moxibustion box model is the most worth buying? Everyone will have an answer after reading this article patiently.

1, Weixin I series graphene portable moxibustion box.

▲ If I don't tell you, you will never think that this is a moxibustion box. As I said above, moxibustion can become fashionable and avant-garde. This prestige graphene portable moxibustion box has a stylish and lightweight appearance, unique design and rich colors. In addition to this elegant white I bought, there are three colors to choose from, namely ruby red, tourmaline green and dark blue, so that even young people can readily accept this traditional moxibustion.

▲ This prestige moxibustion box adopts pull-out design as a whole. The jacket and moxibustion base are connected by magnetic attraction, and moxibustion box can be easily taken out by gently pulling the handle. Two small round moxibustion heads are also fixed on the moxibustion base by magnetic attraction. This moxibustion base is actually a charging box, and the moxibustion head contacts the charging box through two metal contacts to realize charging.

▲ There is a mystery on the back of the moxibustion base, which can be used to store power cords and moxibustion stickers. This design is quite ingenious, which greatly improves the portability, and there is no need to worry about the power cord and moxibustion patch.

▲ Weixin moxibustion box's moxibustion heads are very small, each weighing only 20g, which is the smallest moxibustion head I have found in the electronic moxibustion market at present. Moxibustion attached to the body can't feel the weight at all. Moxibustion head adopts graphene heating sheet, which heats up very quickly and can be heated in 3 seconds. The wavelength of far-infrared light emitted by graphene during heating is similar to that emitted by human body, and the radial pinhole on the surface of moxibustion head is also beneficial for far-infrared light to directly act on body parts.

▲ Moxibustion head is very simple to operate. Press and hold the top button to turn it on, and then press the button to switch three moxibustion modes. Green is mild moxibustion, blue is warm moxibustion and red is hot moxibustion. Moxibustion mode can be selected according to different actual needs.

A box of 30 pieces of moxibustion plaster is attached to the package, and there are two samples, one moxibustion and one plaster, which are particularly convenient.

▲ Let's take a look at the usage of prestige moxibustion box. Take a moxibustion patch, tear off the double-sided adhesive tape on the back and stick it on the metal surface at the bottom of the moxibustion head, then tear off the protective paper on the other side and the protective paper for internal components, and finally stick it on the part that needs moxibustion. It's convenient to use, smokeless and fireless, and a sticker is enough.

▲ Stick it wherever you want to moxibustion, which is very convenient to use.

2. The spine is comfortable in moxibustion box.

▲ The design of Gian's moxibustion box is as fashionable as that of Wilson moxibustion box, which will at least attract young people. Moxibustion box has jade white and obsidian black.

▲ There is a moxibustion head on the left and right sides of Ji 'an moxibustion box, which is connected with the base through magnetic attraction. Like Weixin moxibustion box above, the base is the charging base, and the power cord can be connected to the base to charge the moxibustion head.

▲ Ji 'an moxibustion box is equipped with two moxibustion heads, with a button at the top and a circle of lights around it. The weight of a single moxibustion head is 33g. There are two metal contacts on the side of the moxibustion head, which are used to connect the base for charging.

▲ Press and hold the switch at the top of the moxibustion head to turn it on. When in use, there are three moxibustion modes to choose from. White light is comfortable moxibustion, and the temperature is about 60℃. Blue light is warm moxibustion, the temperature is about 65℃; The red light is hot moxibustion, and the temperature is about 70℃.

▲ Demonstrate how to use moxibustion box for Ji 'an City, which is exactly the same as Weixin moxibustion box above. There are also three moxibustion modes to choose from, but the moxibustion head and moxibustion patch are different.

3, Zuo Xiaoai 2 intelligent moxibustion box

▲ This left-handed little moxa 2 smart moxibustion box is completely different from the previous two models, and this one belongs to non-contact moxibustion box. The face value of this Zuodian moxibustion box is quite good, and the design is full of Mijia style. This product is indeed related to Mijia. It is an ecological chain product with Xiaomi's products, and it can also be connected to Mijia App.

▲ There is a heating bin at the bottom of moxibustion box on the left, surrounded by eight infrared lamp.

▲ Demonstrate how to place Ai cakes. Just turn the bottom heating door counterclockwise to open it, then put in the Ai ? ? cake and lock it in the opposite direction.

▲ The middle position of the black panel at the top of the left point moxibustion box is the display area, and the bottom is the touch button area. Press and hold the dot to open, and the temperature and duration can be adjusted by the arrows on both sides.

▲ The use method of acupoint moxibustion box is different from the above two moxibustion heads. After all, it is much bigger, and it is used with the help of a watch belt. To install the bandage, you need to remove the heating bin door first, and then clip the metal buckle into the grooves on both sides.

▲ When the acupoint moxibustion box is used, it is fixed on the body with a bandage. There are two belts with different lengths in the package. The strap has good elasticity, and the length can be adjusted by gluing, which is suitable for all parts of the body.

▲ Fix moxibustion box on the upper knee with a bandage. After determining the position, fasten the bandage and fix it. It is also very convenient to use.

▲ This left button moxibustion box can be connected with Mijia App to realize intelligent interconnection. This function is quite practical. It is more convenient to adjust on the mobile phone than on the fuselage panel. There are five prefabricated moxibustion modes to choose from in the App.

4. Jindao Electronic moxibustion box

▲ This golden rice electronic moxibustion box is actually similar to the left-hand hole moxibustion box above, but its shape is a little different.

▲ At the bottom of the golden rice moxibustion box, there are eight infrared lights around.

▲ Let's take a look at how the Ai ? ? cake is put in, which is a little different from moxibustion box on the left. Jindao moxibustion box adopts flip design. After pressing the button on the side, you can open the protective cover at the bottom, and then you can put the Ai cake in.

▲ The display screen is hidden under the black panel at the top of the golden rice moxibustion box, and there are three physical buttons below, which can set the temperature and duration. The adjustable temperature range is 100~ 180℃, and the adjustable duration range is 5~60min, which can meet various use requirements.

▲ Kimmy moxibustion box is fixed on her body through a strap, and the length of the strap is adjustable, so it is no problem to use it in all parts.

5. Ke Ai Moxibustion Box.

▲ Compared with the first two models, the appearance of this Echo moxibustion box is a bit out of date, and it may not be popular with young people. Of course, this does not affect its function. We are all Yan values.

▲ At the bottom of Eco-moxibustion box, there is a silicone pad around it, which will be better sealed when it comes into contact with body parts.

▲ Demonstrate how Echo moxibustion box installs Ai Cake. Press the two switches on the side at the same time, take out the Ai cake cavity bracket, and then put in the heart-shaped Ai cake.

▲ This moxibustion box is also fixed on the body with a bandage. It is equipped with a short strap and two long straps. When in use, the length of the belt can be adjusted by the shackle.

▲ Echo moxibustion box has no built-in battery, so it can only be used when it is connected with the power cord. After turning on the power supply, press and hold the power button to turn it on, and then you can adjust the temperature and time. With touch operation, it is more convenient to use.

▲ There is a circle of infrared lamp around the heating area of Ai cake at the bottom, but this light can be turned off in the control panel.

6, Baoyun smoke small hanging moxibustion box

▲ This Baoyun micro-smoke moxibustion moxibustion box is actually a completely different product from the above five moxibustion box models. On the basis of open fire moxibustion, it is optimized to realize micro-smoke moxibustion, but it is still very convenient to use.

▲ Bao Yun has 14 hanging moxibustion in each box, once moxibustion, that is, each box can be used 14 times. This bag is unique.

▲ Let's take a look at the structure of moxibustion box. The box is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part is suspended moxibustion, and the moxa stick is fixed with a specially designed bracket. The lower part is a base with a tin foil filter screen. The two parts are nested inside and outside, and the resistance is just right. The height of the upper cover can be rotated to adjust the temperature of moxibustion box.

▲ To demonstrate the use of Baoyun's small suspension moxibustion, you need to use a fire source, take out the upper part, light the moxa stick, then install the base and stick it on the part that needs moxibustion.

▲ 3M pressure-sensitive adhesive is used at the bottom of moxibustion box, which can be directly pasted on the parts needing moxibustion.

▲ Look at the situation after use, the whole moxa stick will fall off, but it is still in a whole state, so don't worry about moxa ash falling out of the small hole.

These are six moxibustion box models to be compared horizontally this time. Moxibustion has different principles and can be roughly divided into three types. Wei Xin and Ji An are the same kind of people, Zuo Dian, Jin Dao and Ai Ke are the same kind of people, but Bao Yun is different. It is only an optimized product of open fire moxibustion, but it is also very portable.

▲ The moxa sticks used in the three types of products are also different. Wei Xin and Ji Anshi used moxa sticks, Zuo Dian, Echo and Jin Dao used moxa cakes, and Bao Yun itself was disposable, including moxa sticks.

Finally, summarize six mainstream moxibustion box products on the market. The prices of these six products range from 149 yuan to 699 yuan, and the principles of moxibustion are also different, which can be roughly divided into three types, as mentioned above. The most recommended products of these three types are Weixin and Ji 'anshi, which use moxibustion heads. Moxibustion head is small and light, and can be directly attached to the part that needs moxibustion, which is very convenient to use. And they also have a charging base, so the whole product is very portable. Especially in Weixin moxibustion box, the weight of a single moxibustion head is only 20g, and the base is also designed with a charging cable and a storage position for moxibustion stickers. Moxibustion principle of sitting point, echo and tendon channel is the same. Non-contact moxibustion is carried out by heating in a heating chamber. These products are relatively larger and less portable. And they are all fixed with bandages, which may not be used in any part, and it is definitely not as convenient as sticking moxibustion parts. Finally, this moxibustion box Baoyun is actually different from the first five models. Its moxibustion principle is still the most primitive, but it has been optimized in product structure and portability, realizing micro-smoke moxibustion. At the same time, it is also very portable, and a box of moxibustion can be discarded after use, but there is a disadvantage. Massage the same part for a long time will cause pigmentation, and young ladies should pay special attention to it.

Generally speaking, the first five moxibustion box models are the product of the combination of ancient moxibustion methods and modern science and technology. They redefined moxibustion, especially the two modes of Wei Xin and Ji Anshi, and really realized carrying around and exercising at any time. In addition, the cost of later use also needs attention. Moxibustion with comfortable spine is still a little expensive, much more than 4 yuan. In contrast, the new one is much cheaper, only half of the former. In addition, Wei Xin and Ji Anshi are also very different. Weixin moxibustion box uses graphene heating sheet, which can emit far-infrared light waves, comparable to the effect of naked moxibustion, while Ji 'an uses ordinary ceramics for heating. These two products, Zuodian and Golden Knife, can be used as other moxibustion materials except moxa sticks, which are almost portable, but Echo doesn't even have a built-in battery, so I won't say much here. Bao Yun is an upgraded version of traditional open fire moxibustion, but the price of single use is really not cheap.

Well, the above is the experience of using these six products, which only represents my personal opinion. It is best to go to the product page to learn more about it before buying, and the right one is worth buying.

The amount of moxibustion is how long it is appropriate for each moxibustion. How to correctly define the amount of moxibustion? Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to "yin and yang are secret, and the spirit is calm and harmonious", which means that no matter what diseases are caused by yin and yang imbalance, our treatment purpose is to find ways to establish a new balance. As a means of treating diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, moxibustion mainly relies on acupoint stimulation and warm stimulation. This kind of stimulation can be regarded as the amount of moxibustion, which determines the curative effect of moxibustion, but this kind of stimulation cannot be measured quantitatively. There is a saying in the medical school Jin Jian Acupuncture Essentials that "when moxibustion is used for various diseases, it must be full of fire before it can be cured".

Moxibustion amount is not only the duration of each moxibustion, but also includes acupoint selection, the size of moxibustion fire, moxibustion time, moxibustion distance, moxibustion frequency and moxibustion course. The amount of clinical moxibustion should be tailored to the time, place and patient's condition, which means that moxibustion should be aimed at different acupoints at different times, places, people and diseases.

In fact, there is no specific limit to the length of single moxibustion mentioned by the subject. We need to comprehensively consider the degree of the patient's illness, the patient's own physique, and the time and place of moxibustion. For example, in summer, the weather is hot and the sun is strong. When we do moxibustion, we need to shorten the single time as much as possible and extend the moxibustion course appropriately to prevent patients from hurting yin due to too much single warm stimulation. On the contrary, we can extend each moxibustion time in winter, which can also play an auxiliary role in shortening the recovery cycle of the disease.

The duration of single moxibustion is also affected by acupoint selection. Generally, the moxibustion time of head and face points should not be too long, but the chest and abdomen points and some thermophilic points (such as Zusanli) can be extended appropriately. The length of a single moxibustion needs to be summarized in long-term work, and it cannot be generalized. For beginners, the time of a single moxibustion can be shortened appropriately, which can avoid the stimulation being too great to pay off.

This question is very professional. In the past, many netizens said that moxibustion was often handed in. Then this question is more specific. How long do we need moxibustion every day and how long do we need moxibustion at each acupoint? So today I will talk about this more professional problem.

How long does it take to teach every day, or how long does it take to moxibustion each acupoint? This is called moxibustion.

Then what does this moxibustion amount mean? Let me explain to you what the amount of moxibustion is.

Let me explain to you what dose is first. We all have a dose of western medicine, such as two or four tablets, three times a day.

This is the dose, so this moxibustion dose also means a dose. Function!

So we ... what is the amount of moxibustion? Well, we normal adults can have moxibustion for 60 to 90 minutes at a time.

Then the time of each acupoint is about 10~ 15 minutes.

This is the amount of moxibustion for a normal person, so we must pay attention to normal adults.

For example, this person has a bad cold and is afraid of cold and stuffy nose. Headache. At this time, we can increase the amount of moxibustion to two hours or even three hours.

After this person recovered from a cold, he returned to normal moxibustion!

Then the amount of moxibustion for the elderly and children is half an hour at a time.

Each acupoint lasts about 5 minutes.

At this time, we have to distinguish what kind of old people we are. For example, a 60-year-old man is physically strong and may be healthier than that strong man. Go to Tai Chi every day, right? Mountain climbing and running. Then his alcohol consumption can be increased to the amount of moxibustion for a normal adult. If the child is right, it is physically weak. I'll give him 20 minutes at a time. Then adjust flexibly according to the reaction after moxibustion.

In short, we must master a principle, that is, after moxibustion, we must radically cure the body's reaction and make timely and flexible adjustments. The original plan can be based on the body's reaction after moxibustion. Adjust the appropriate countermeasures. Never stick to the original plan. Our physical reaction is the only criterion to guide us whether moxibustion and moxibustion amount are appropriate.

Today, I mainly talk about the amount of moxibustion each time, so I have also answered the question of course design in other posts. Today's question about the amount of moxibustion ends here.

I'm Lao Wu and Artemisia argyi, focusing on planting and processing Artemisia argyi. Committed to the public welfare communication of moxibustion culture. Please pay attention to those who like moxibustion in traditional Chinese medicine.

The amount of moxibustion involves how long it takes to moxibustion at each acupoint, how long it takes to moxibustion at each time as a whole, and what objective standards are reached to be the correct amount of moxibustion. In addition to the long-term accumulated experience of professional moxibustion teachers, most white people have their own experience and even unique skills. How to grasp an appropriate amount of moxibustion at home should be a particularly common demand.

Textbooks and hot posts on the health care network mostly say that routine moxibustion lasts for 15-20 minutes, while overall moxibustion lasts for 3-5 hours, and the overall time is about 1 hour. This is only a general introduction, and it does not explain to what extent moxibustion can be regarded as "moxibustion through". Because in the clinical practice of moxibustion, only moxibustion is truly thorough can we feel, feel and be effective. If you can't meet the standard of moxibustion, you can say that you are playing hooligans in a certain sense.

Obviously, whether moxibustion is thorough is the only indicator to judge whether the amount of moxibustion is appropriate. So to what extent is "moxibustion"?

Each acupoint is a relay station or convergence point for the flow of qi and blood in meridians, and it is also a pivotal joint point for moxibustion perfusion energy information, particle quantum exchange and co-frequency photothermal radiation vibration. Therefore, in the process of moxibustion, the acupoints must be "opened" to facilitate the photothermal radiation, information and energy of moxibustion to penetrate into the body through acupoints and meridians, and then stimulate the receptors of acupoints through warm stress, and then directly or indirectly affect the neuroendocrine immune network through meridians and interstitial networks to play an overall regulatory role. Instead of floating on the surface of the skin, it just produces a burning feeling. Its essence is barbecue, not moxibustion. No matter the simple baking of acupoints and meridians, the clinical treatment effect will be greatly reduced.

The result of "thorough moxibustion" is that there will be a "moxibustion feeling" at acupoints. In addition to the common local warming and even acupuncture points, there should also be acupoints with heat penetration, bloating, heat transfer, no (slight) heat in the far part, no (slight) heat in the deep surface and no heat sensation, such as acid, bloating, pressure, heaviness, pain, numbness and cold. The highest standard of "penetrating moxibustion" is that it can "directly reach the disease", that is, the moxibustion sensation can be directly transmitted to the pain or target conditioning part.

In clinical practice, before moxibustion, the skin, bones and muscles around the acupoints are generally touched stiffly. With the progress of moxibustion, the bone tissue around acupoints will gradually change, which can be felt by touch, such as elasticity, toughness, softness and harmony. Pressing acupoints will move the surrounding soft tissues and even bones. Unlike before moxibustion, it is more stiff, more detached and has a sense of disobedience. When I touched it, most of it just moved, and the rest wouldn't follow.

In addition to consumers' subjective sense of moxibustion, experienced moxibustion teachers can also perceive whether moxibustion is "thorough" from their own methods, which mainly includes three levels of changes: the first layer is smooth and soft, mainly because the muscles around acupoints are elastic, the joints are flexible, and the sexual body returns to normal posture; The second layer is the place where qi reaches the disease: moxibustion friends feel hot, numb and itchy in local acupoints and related parts, and the "moxibustion feeling" is comfortable; The third floor is refreshing: the friends of moxibustion feel that the whole body and mind are easily and freely led away.

To sum up, the correct amount of moxibustion varies from person to person and from moxibustion to moxibustion. It is right to distinguish between people and moxibustion, make the best use of the situation and adjust measures to local conditions.

First of all, there is no exact time and quantity for this.

In ancient times, people used moxa sticks to make moxa sticks and put them directly on human acupoints, or used salt, ginger, garlic and aconite cake for moxibustion. Every little moxa pagoda is a strong moxibustion with odd numbers, and the numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and odd numbers count as yang. Moxibustion is actually aphrodisiac. As for how strong it is, it depends on the symptoms. There are some serious moxibustion points in the book.

Nowadays, people are all health moxibustion and hanging moxibustion: moxibustion box, hand-held and portable moxibustion and cupping. They all leave the skin, and direct moxibustion is easy to blister. Now people who love beauty can stop hitting on guests. Then let the compensation say it's a burn. So it's all moxibustion. Of course, there are also direct moxibustion on Du Like meridians, but this is rare.

Hanging moxibustion is less effective than direct moxibustion. So, the time is uncertain. Ordinary little moxa sticks, little moxa sticks, it will take half an hour and an hour. If the moxibustion stick is 4.0 or 6.0, the time will be less. Of course, it is necessary to combine the gender of the acupoints with the symptoms of the guests, and there are also differences in time.

Generally, large-scale moxibustion health centers have the dialectical opening time of acupoints by the technical director of traditional Chinese medicine. If you want to recuperate, you should go to a regular moxibustion tube.

This depends on personal physique and personal illness. With big moxa sticks, there is only thermal fumigation, which takes a long time and makes the skin dry and tired. You must also moxibustion one acupoint at a time. How long can you last? Even if it can be moxibustion for a long time, it is estimated that people can't persist. Now there are new products, which are the inheritance and innovation of traditional moxa sticks. The difference between it and the traditional moxa stick is that it uses the essential oils of Folium Artemisiae Argyi, moxa smoke and Artemisia argyi, and its efficiency is several times that of the traditional moxa stick, and it is convenient and quick. Multiple acupoints can be moxibustion at the same time. Burning 15 minutes, equivalent to burning big moxa sticks for 45 minutes. Moxibustion can be performed several times at a time, repeatedly, continuously and thoroughly. People are not tired.

Pictures for reference

Quietly watching you people pretend to be 13, so many people are half right.

It's the one mentioned in this book again, the one mentioned in that book I just want to ask: Do you know Yin and Yang?

To what extent does moxibustion hurt yang and yin?

Professionals, come out and take two steps.

Basic knowledge of moxibustion In ancient China, wormwood was already an important livelihood plant. "Moxibustion" is usually used for acupuncture. Acupuncture is actually divided into two parts. "Needle" refers to acupuncture points, and "moxibustion" refers to burning wormwood and fumigating and scalding points. Although acupoints are stimulated by heating, not any piece of paper or grass can be used as "moxibustion" when it is lit. The smell of wormwood must have played a role. When people in China use cupping to treat rheumatism, it is better to use wormwood as fuel.

Practitioners use moxa sticks to warm areas and meridian points, with the aim of stimulating circulation through points and making blood and airflow more stable. Some people think it can treat diseases related to "cold" or "yang deficiency" in traditional Chinese medicine. It is said that moxibustion can reduce the cold and dampness of the body and can play the role of turning the breech position.

The first modern scientific publication about moxibustion was written by a Japanese doctor, HaraShimetarō, who made an in-depth study on the hematological effects of moxibustion in 1927. Two years later, his doctoral thesis on this issue was admitted to the Medical College of Kyushu Imperial University. The latest issue of Halla appeared in 198 1.

Cochrane evaluation found that the evidence of using moxibustion to correct the breech position of infants was limited and more experimental experiments were needed. Moxibustion is also used to treat pain, cancer, stroke, ulcerative colitis, constipation and hypertension. Systematic review shows that the quality of these studies is low, and the positive results may be due to publication bias.

Parallel use of mugwort

Artemisia argyi in other herbs is often painted as a stick. The Chumashi people in Southern California have similar rituals. Europeans put mugwort under pillows to stimulate their dreams; This herb is related to the magic practice in Anglo-Saxon times.
