The ancients of moxibustion adaptation syndromes lot of long-term clinical observation that moxibustion can not only treat the surface of the syndromes, but also treat the organs Syndrome; either permit treatment of a variety of chronic diseases, but also to treat a number of acute and severe risk disease ; mainly used for the treatment of a variety of cold syndrome, but also treat some real heat.

In this regard, there are many ancient medical works are described.

Worthy of a book is that the ancients moxibustion health has also accumulated a wealth of experience. China’s health care moxibustion in the Tang Dynasty began to get attention, which was mainly from the perspective of disease prevention. Such as “Qian Jin Yi Fang,” says: “All diseases are three strong moxibustion three years.” And “Taiwan Miyao,” further states: “New Year’s Eve more than mortal, if moxibustion Zusanli touched upon so popular dark.” Here the actual moxibustion has been involved in the fitness and strength a role. Song moxibustion to have been fully aware of the health effects, such as “acupuncture-funded students’ mention:” by the sea air, strength of the sea, people with strength-oriented, strength does not hurt, although the disease is not harmful, a debilitating, carry no disease and died. frequency moxibustion this point should be to Zhuang Yuan Yang, if the disease will be made then moxibustion, fear of loss of late also. “outgassing sea cave, a number of medical works also summarizes some other points. Such as “Que heart book” says: “People in the disease, often moxibustion Guan Yuan, air sea, Vital, Zhongwan …… also ensure longevity carry over a hundred years.” Zhang Gao’s “doctors said,” stressing that ” To Ann, three years must not dry. ” After the release of purulent moxibustion, moxibustion sore is healed before quit. Means repeated moxibustion Zusanli can play a role in health care. “Que heart book” also refers to certain operations of the health moxibustion of the law, such as “to 33, may be three hundred years a strong moxibustion navel; 50 years one can moxibustion navel three hundred strong; sixty three hundred navel moxibustion can be a strong year. “The book also sets out some examples:” Chao to 90 years who …… God Choi Yu smooth …… every summer at the turn, that burning off per thousand cone , long defying cold and heat, Leiri not hungry. warming so far below the belly button of a fire. “” Acupuncture funded students “also contained:” Old age and Yan Chuan someone like the lad who cover every age rodent droppings moxibustion it is also a strong navel. ”
Some of the most significant is the reference Song physicians own experience, Wang Zhizhong in the “acupuncture-funded students” in reference to “I old and sick, often suffer shortness of breath, doctors who teach moxibustion sea air, gas then do not promote, each naturally aged be a secondary moxibustion. “Dou timber also deep feeling:” I fifty, often moxibustion off five hundred strong, life insurance that is served Dan, Dan life extension. gradually to light physical health, envy into the diet. sixty three o’clock, due to worries anger, to find dead veins on the left hand inch unit, nineteen were moving, but one ended moxibustion Guan Yuan, Vital each five hundred strong, fifty dead veins no longer see the future carry on. annually so often moxibustion, then too old healthy. “(” Que heart book “). Ming physicians on a health moxibustion although no large development, but has also been inherited, such as Ming Jingyue in the “category by the map-wing” Volume set: “In God Que line separated salt moxibustion, moxibustion if three, five hundred strong , not just the more illness, but also and sickness. “” Dragon Sutra “also contains:” Gaohuangshu two strong points cure, this point the original amount of difficulty, Adams Point ban many needles Ai, twenty-one strong it is harmless. ”

During the first day, each foot moxibustion twenty-six strong, moxibustion seven strong second day, third day to the seventh day of the second day of the same daily trip of the law. ”
In short, the ancients believed that all evidence moxibustion on cold and heat can be applied, but no matter for what illness, the doctor must examine the condition detailed, careful diagnosis, according to the patient’s age and physique, select the appropriate method of acupuncture and moxibustion, to master the use appropriate amount of reinforcing and reducing techniques and moxibustion, moxibustion moxibustion this to suit syndromes principle.
