Can moxibustion cure myopia?

Once myopia occurs, you must wear glasses all year round. Only some patients with milder conditions can improve their condition through laser treatment, but most patients do not have any effective treatment measures. Even moxibustion cannot cure myopia. This is just a Chinese medicine treatment method and can only be used to regulate the body.

Treat frostbite

Acupoints: Hegu (located between the first and second metacarpal bones on the dorsum of the hand, near the midpoint of the second metacarpal bone) and Zusanli.

Method: Massage the frostbite area for 5 minutes. After selecting the acupoints, light the medicinal moxa stick and aim it at the areas where frostbite has occurred or is about to occur. Hold the moxibustion for 3 to 5 minutes each, until the local skin turns red. If the frostbite is on the upper limbs or ears, moxibustion on the Hegu point must be added for 3 to 5 minutes; if the frostbite is on the lower limbs, moxibustion on the Zusanli point must be added for 3 to 5 minutes. Use this method of moxibustion for 3 consecutive days and frostbite will not recur.

Treat stomachache

Acupoints: Zhongwan (located 4 inches above the navel on the midline of the abdomen) and Zusanli.

Method: After selecting the acupoints, light the medicinal moxa stick and apply moxibustion on the Zhongwan point and one side of the Zusanli point for 10 minutes each, until the skin on the acupoints turns red. Stomach pain is relieved immediately. Pay attention when using it.

Description: Moxibustion on the Zusanli point can relax stomach spasms and weaken strong stomach motility; it can also immediately strengthen weak stomach motility and start the stomach to move if it does not move at all. Therefore, except for serious diseases such as gastric ulcer bleeding and perforation, which should be treated promptly or with surgery, for stomach pain caused by any other reason, including acute and chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and gastric neurosis in modern medicine, if the main symptom is epigastric pain, moxibustion with this method can immediately relieve the pain.
