Let's watch how each pathogen is cure in traditional Chinese Medicine theory :- "opposing forces restore balance."
Each line contrasts a pathogenic factor (e.g., cold, dampness, stagnation) with its natural remedy (e.g., mugwort’s warmth, bitter citrus peel, coix seed’s cleansing properties). It reflects how imbalances in the body can be corrected through targeted interventions, whether herbs, food, or therapies like moxibustion.
ʜᴏᴡ ᴍᴏxɪʙᴜꜱᴛɪᴏɴ (艾灸) 🔥🔥🔥 ᴇɴʜᴀɴᴄᴇꜱ ɪᴍᴍᴜɴɪᴛʏ & ʀᴇɢᴜʟᴀᴛᴇꜱ ʙᴏᴅʏ ᴄᴏɴꜱᴛɪᴛᴜᴛɪᴏɴ
1. 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐭𝐡 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐝 & 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧🥶
"I am cold, I fear mugwort’s warmth."
Moxibustion’s heat penetrates deep to expel cold-dampness (e.g., chills, swelling) and melt stubborn blockages (e.g., pain, poor circulation). Key points: Guanyuan, Zusanli.
2. 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐒𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐧 & 𝐋𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐬🫁
"I am damp, I fear bitter citrus peel."
By stimulating Dazhui, Feishu, and Spleen meridians, it boosts digestion (resolving sluggishness) and reinforces Wei Qi (immune barrier) against pathogens.
3. 𝐃𝐮𝐚𝐥-𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ↔️
"I am dryness, I fear pear’s moisture."
For yin deficiency (dryness), moxa guides heat downward; for toxic heat ("I am poison, I fear forsythia’s bitterness"), points like Quchi clear fire safely.
4. 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐬 & 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐬🤢
"I am turbid, I fear coix seed’s clarity."
Moxa on Zhongwan, Fenglong dissolves phlegm-damp; for blood stasis ("I am stagnation, I fear hawthorn’s sourness"), Xuehai, Sanyinjiao activate flow.
Moxibustion works synergistically with TCM dietary principles (e.g., ginger for cold, radish for stagnation). By igniting the body’s self-healing capacity, it gently nudges imbalanced constitutions—whether cold, damp, or toxic—back toward harmony.
