The Pros and Cons of Moxibustion on the Yin Tang

Moxibustion on the Yingtang point can effectively regulate the disordered physiological and biochemical functions of the human body. It can play a certain role in preventing and treating diseases, but it should be noted that the Yingtang point is mainly located in the eyebrow area. If moxibustion is performed improperly, it is easy to burn the skin, so it is necessary to master the correct method to achieve a more ideal therapeutic effect.

Moxibustion on the Yingtang point can easily lead to side effects such as dryness of the eyes, nose, throat, and mouth. Therefore, during moxibustion, it is recommended to choose smokeless moxibustion or cover the eyes, nose, and mouth with damp gauze. After moxibustion, drink plenty of water, and the moxibustion time on the Yingtang point should not be too long, preferably not exceeding 15 minutes.

Usually, when performing moxibustion, it is recommended to avoid getting too close to the skin or eyebrows. During moxibustion on the Yingtang point, the eyes must be closed. After moxibustion, ensure adequate rest and sleep. Of course, appropriate exercise can effectively improve the body's immunity and disease resistance.

Moxibustion must be performed in a professional and formal institution with professionals operating it to achieve the desired preventive and therapeutic effects and reduce potential harm.
