Can I use moxibustion during the confinement period?

Moxibustion is a very popular health-preserving method nowadays, and its effect is obvious. It can open up the meridians of the human body and promote blood circulation. Moxibustion on certain parts of the body is not only for regulating the body, but can also be used to treat certain diseases. However, some Chinese medicine practitioners believe that moxibustion is not suitable for everyone. So, if women are weak during the confinement period, can they do moxibustion?

benefit:

1. Harmonize yin and yang. The balance of yin and yang in the human body is the root of the occurrence and development of disease. The tonifying and purging effects of moxibustion therapy are used to achieve the effect of harmonizing yin and yang.

2. Warm and unclog the meridians, and dispel evil cold. Mugwort is warm in nature and when burned and used for fumigation, the heat can penetrate deep into the muscle layer, warming the qi and promoting blood circulation. Moxibustion has the effects of warming and unblocking meridians, dispelling cold and dampness, regulating qi and blood, relieving numbness and relieving pain.

3. Promote Qi and blood circulation, eliminate blood stasis and disperse nodules. When Qi encounters heat, it flows; when it encounters cold, it condenses; when Qi warms, blood flows. Moxibustion is a warm stimulation that can coordinate Qi and blood, harmonize the Ying and Wei systems, and make the blood vessels smooth, thereby promoting Qi and blood circulation, removing blood stasis and dispersing nodules.

4. Prevent diseases, maintain health, strengthen the body and prolong life.

The effects of moxibustion therapy are multifaceted. For example, if the acupoints selected are different, the moxibustion methods are different, the stimulation degree is different, or the materials used for moxibustion are different, the effects will also be different; therefore, in clinical application, different acupoints and operation methods should be selected according to the specific condition.
