1. Meridian based moxibustion

Meridian based moxibustion is mainly used to unblock meridians and improve the metabolism of the human body. Special moxibustion boxes can be used to slowly move back and forth along the meridians, such as performing moxibustion operations along the direction of the spleen and stomach meridians. It is recommended to operate for 30-40 minutes each time to help strengthen the spleen and stomach, and improve the digestive and absorption functions of the gastrointestinal tract.

2. Acupoint Moxibustion

Acupoint moxibustion adjusts the function of organs by stimulating specific acupoints in the human body. Common acupoints such as Tian Shu, Guan Yuan, and Zu San Li can be selected as the location for moxibustion application. It is recommended to hold each acupoint for 15-20 minutes during moxibustion to promote the circulation of qi and blood and regulate the function of the endocrine system.

III. Local Moxibustion

Local moxibustion is a method of targeted treatment for fat accumulation sites. Moxibustion boxes can be placed in areas with thick fat on the abdomen, waist, or outer thighs for targeted moxibustion. During operation, it is important to maintain a safe distance of 20-30 minutes.

Fourth, ginger separated moxibustion

Ginger separated moxibustion is a method of placing ginger slices between the skin and moxa sticks. Ginger has the characteristic of warming and dispersing cold, which can enhance the effectiveness of moxibustion. Fresh ginger should be sliced into thin slices of moderate thickness and placed at the moxibustion site for 20 minutes during operation.

V. Warm acupuncture and moxibustion

Warm acupuncture and moxibustion is a weight loss method combining acupuncture and moxibustion. A professional physician should select appropriate acupoints for acupuncture, and then place a special moxa stick at the end of the needle for 30 minutes of burning.

When performing moxibustion for weight loss, it is necessary to choose appropriate operating methods and follow the correct operating procedures. It is recommended to choose a formal medical institution and have professional physicians provide guidance on the operation. Pay attention to controlling the duration of moxibustion and avoid prolonged use. After moxibustion, keep warm and drink moderate amounts of warm water. Losing weight is a long-term process that is recommended to be carried out gradually with a reasonable diet and moderate exercise.
