Is the water coming out from below after moxibustion dampness?

I believe that everyone pays special attention to their physical condition, and in daily life people will also actively take some measures to regulate their bodies. Moxibustion is a very popular detoxification method nowadays. Some people will experience water discharge when doing moxibustion. There is a saying that this water is moisture. Is it true? The following will explain in detail whether water discharge during moxibustion is moisture.

The principle of moxibustion is to allow moisture in the body to slowly flow out of the body, thereby achieving a detoxification effect. Therefore, the water discharged during the moxibustion process is indeed moisture. It is also worth noting that moxibustion has many other functions. Not only does it relieve depression and remove dampness as we mentioned above, it can also replenish yang energy, so this method is very suitable for health preservation in summer. Generally speaking, if you perform moxibustion treatment regularly, you can easily avoid common summer diseases.

Moreover, the tools and raw materials needed for moxibustion treatment are also very simple, basically Qi moxa sticks and moxa acupuncture. Its methods and steps are as follows. First, take the Guanyuan acupoint. This requires reference to a professional acupoint map. This acupoint is located 3 inches below the navel and has always been an important acupoint for health care and strengthening the body. Therefore, if you apply moxibustion on it for a long time, it will have the effects of regulating qi and blood, nourishing the kidney and consolidating essence. The specific operation is to use moxa sticks for moxibustion for 20 to 30 minutes or one moxa needle. Other acupoints include the Mingmen point, which is located below the second lumbar vertebra on the back of the human body and opposite to the navel. It has always been the center of human vitality. There is also a Zhongwan point, and the last one is the Zusanli point.

Why does water come out during moxibustion?

During the process of moxibustion, most patients will discharge water. This is because there is too much moisture in the body. If water is discharged, it means that the moisture is being expelled from the body. In the process of expelling moisture, you should also observe the color of the water. If it is colorless, it means cold and dampness. If it is yellow, it means there is stagnant heat in the body. If it is bloody, it means that the dampness and toxins in the body are very severe. You must persist in moxibustion for a long time.

There are also many specific symptoms. If you get angry after moxibustion, it will manifest as dry mouth, swollen gums, dizziness, etc. It is worth noting that moxibustion is generally more likely to cause getting angry in autumn and winter. The second situation is that if you emit steam during moxibustion or blisters appear after moxibustion, and there are blisters and pus bubbles, then it is mostly caused by the expulsion of cold evil after moxibustion to a certain extent. In the third case, if your skin itches during or after moxibustion, this may indicate that the cold evil is on the body surface, which is not a big problem.
