Moxibustion for gastric disease

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine treatment method that is not unfamiliar to people. Through moxibustion, people's symptoms of cold body can be effectively changed and play a certain degree of health care effect. In addition, if moxibustion treatment is implemented on some special parts, it can also effectively alleviate the health conditions of patients with stomach problems and restore the health of the stomach. Below, I will introduce to you in detail the specific methods of using moxibustion to treat stomach problems.

1. Warm moxibustion on Zhongwan and Shenque to treat stomach problems

There are also some older people who, due to many bad habits when they were young or due to limited living conditions, do not eat well, which leads to frequent gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea, retching, and diarrhea when they are old. Eye conditions like this require long-term conditioning. Generally, five or six courses of moxibustion are required, with one course lasting 10 days. Each course lasts 20-30 minutes, and you can rest for 3 days between each course.

At this time, you need to use ginger moxibustion, which is to poke holes in the ginger slices, place them on the Zhongwan point and Shenque point, and then apply moxibustion to the ginger slices. The spicy taste of ginger can help with stubborn indigestion once it enters the body. When we use warm moxibustion to treat stomach problems, if we massage the digestive system reflex area of ​​the foot for a few minutes, the effect will be better.

2. Treat stomach problems with your ears

To deal with stomach problems, you can also find the stomach, esophagus, cardia, pylorus and duodenum reflex areas on the ears. Press where it hurts, and your stomach will feel warmed up in a short while. For common stomach problems, find the painful point on the ear, endure the pain, and press it for a few minutes and it will be relieved. Generally speaking, the more serious the stomach problem is, the more painful it is when you acupuncture it.

If you have an acute stomachache while on a business trip, partying with friends, or at work, and you don't have any fermented glutinous rice or moxa sticks at hand, and it is inconvenient to press the stomach reflex area on the foot, you can directly press the stomach area on the ear, find the most painful spot and press it directly.

Sometimes, you feel like you have stomach pain, but it may actually be cardia pain, pyloric pain, or duodenal pain. At this time, you cannot distinguish it by feeling alone, but you can find it accurately by your ears. Press these places. The point that hurts the most indicates the organ that is malfunctioning.

If you really don't want to do it and can't stand the pain, you can use the method of sticking ear beans and stick milk vetch seeds on the several reflex areas introduced by the editor above. You can also grind the Yunnan Baiyao seeds into powder, wrap the fenugreek seeds and then apply it. Or you can directly grind both the fenugreek seeds and Yunnan Baiyao into powder, add some water, and make a small plaster to apply to the stomach area on the ear.
