Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy that is used in Traditional Oriental Medicine. It is made from the Chinese herb, Mugwort (Artemisiae Argyi). It comes in many forms, as moxa sticks, cones, loose herb, etc to provide indirect and direct stimulation on acupuncture points. It is a gentle yet effective way to strengthen your body. Moxibustion therapy is a gem of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Moxibustion or moxa on the acupuncture point ST36 is traditionally used to improve longevity and prevent illness. It strengthens the body by tonifying the qi and blood and boosting the immune system.
Moxibustion can be a simple addition to a treatment that can boost your immunity, strengthen your body, and increase your general sense of well-being! It’s an easy way to boost your immunity during this flu season.
Ask your acupuncturist if moxa is right for you.
流感季节,预防为主,这年头我们都知道拼的不是财力学历或什么权力,拼的是我们身体的自身免疫力,所以提高免疫力是防病抗毒的关键。
提高免疫力除了养成积极的生活习惯,比如充足的睡眠,合理的饮食,适量的运动,保持良好的情绪是关键外,还有一个很古老又简单有效而且在家里就可以调理的方法:艾灸,中古历代在防疫中,这不起眼的艾草从来就扮演着举足轻重的角色,因为它就是提高我们身体免疫力最简单而有效的办法。
用艾草防疫,在中国有着上千年的历史,现代医学药理也证明艾草是一种抗菌抗病毒的药物,其对病菌有着抑制和杀伤的作用,而且对呼吸系统疾病也有防治的效果。熏艾条可以除湿、杀虫、除菌。
《内经》云:“正气存内,邪不可干。”艾灸最能补人体之阳气之正气,《扁鹊心书》中说:“保命之法,灼艾第一。”“日为天之阳,艾为地之阳。”据现代科学研究表明,艾草是所有植物中进行光合作用效率最高的植物,生长过程中能极大吸收转化太阳热能。艾灸过程中,能释放大量阳气被人体吸收,循经走络,直达病灶,能有效祛除寒湿邪气,通经络,调气血,补元阳,强大身体的免疫功能。那么灸哪个穴位最能提高免疫力。我们都知道中医有这么一句话“常灸足三里,胜吃老母鸡” 为自己和家人的健康点上一支艾香。
