Acupoint moxibustion can relieve hyperthyroidism and treat heart disease.

Moxibustion dredge qi and blood, hyperthyroidism patients no longer worry.

Often appear flustered problem, always feel chest tightness, breathing difficulties. It's easy to get out of control after encountering some annoying things.

Let's take a look at hyperthyroidism first. Hyperthyroidism is a common endocrine disease, which leads to excessive secretion of thyroid hormone for various reasons.

Clinically, patients with hyperthyroidism are mainly manifested as palpitation, fear of heat, hyperhidrosis, hyperhidrosis, emaciation, fatigue, irritability, impatience, insomnia, inattention, exophthalmos, trembling fingers, goiter and other symptoms. Some female patients may have menstrual disorder or even amenorrhea, while male patients may have symptoms such as impotence or breast development. In severe cases, coma or even life-threatening may occur.

As it happens, I saw the treatment of this disease when I was studying the warm moxibustion method of the old man in Ma Shaoqun. In order to solve her troubles as soon as possible, I immediately told her to use "1 1 day cycle moxibustion".

The specific operation methods of moxibustion are as follows: moxibustion at Daque, Zhongwan and Zusanli points on the first day; The next day, moxibustion was performed at points such as Menxia and Taichong. On the third day, moxibustion was performed at Shu Fei and Zeqian points; On the fourth day, moxibustion was performed at Xinshu, Shenmen and other points; On the fifth day, moxibustion at Tianchi and Shaohai points; On the sixth day, moxibustion was applied to Shu Ge, Tiantu and thighs. On the seventh day, moxibustion was performed at Ganshu, Zhangmen and other points; On the eighth day, moxibustion was performed at points such as Shousanli and Shousanli. On the ninth day, moxibustion at Fengchi point and Yangfu point; Moxibustion of thyroid and Erbai points on the tenth day; On the first 1 1 day, moxibustion was applied at Shenshu and Zhao Hai points. The time of point moxibustion every day should be 10 ~ 15 minutes.

When she saw the method I recommended, she said to try it at once.

Seeing her impatience, I really hope her illness can be cured as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, only one month later, she came to tell me that her condition had improved, but she encountered new problems.

After she learned about the method of "1 1 day periodic moxibustion", she immediately followed my method 1 course of treatment, controlled the time almost accurately, and tried to find the acupoints accurately.

1 1 day/after the course of treatment, she found that the usual fatigue disappeared and the whole person felt more energetic than before. But in the second course of treatment, because my lover was on a business trip, she was left alone at home. It is easy to say that the acupoints in front of the body are moxibustion, and it is not convenient to find the right position on the back. When moxibustion reaches back acupoints such as Shu Fei and Xinshu, she is basically just moxibustion.

After the second course of treatment, she felt that her sleep had been greatly improved. She was able to sleep for 6 hours every day in those days, and her hair loss was reduced, and she had no palpitations for a long time. Although this result made her particularly satisfied, she wanted to cure the disease immediately. She wanted to ask me if the acupuncture points on the back of moxibustion were not found correctly, which would affect the effect of moxibustion. If the time of moxibustion is prolonged, will it enhance the effect of moxibustion?

I can understand her feelings. Hyperthyroidism patients are impatient and anxious when treating diseases. It must be very difficult for a friend who has been ill for more than 30 years to get well within 1 month.

After two courses of treatment, sleep and hair loss have been improved. Seeing the curative effect of moxibustion on these symptoms can actually show that healthy qi is gradually recovering after moxibustion, which is only a matter of time, and we should be satisfied.

Don't rush for success, haste makes waste. Friends with hyperthyroidism can moxibustion acupoints according to the method of "1 1 day periodic moxibustion", but they don't have to follow the book. As long as they feel effective, they can add and subtract according to their own specific conditions.

According to my clinical experience, moxibustion at acupoints on limbs lasts for 65,438+00 ~ 65,438+05 minutes, focusing on Fengchi, Zhongwan, Guanyuan, Shenshu, Dazhui, Shenque and the middle part. Moxibustion of these key points for half an hour every day is better.

This method of acupoint moxibustion for hyperthyroidism can also treat heart disease. In moxibustion, you don't have to aim at any point, and you don't have to moxibustion every point.

In time, you can choose moxibustion at any time, and you don't have to stick to the length of time. As long as you are not uncomfortable, you can have moxibustion at any time. Of course, you don't need to carry a moxibustion jar all day. Mainly depends on the patient's own feelings and reaction to moxibustion. In fact, moxibustion is not a complicated positioning operation, and it is not necessary to accurately determine which acupuncture point to moxibustion. As long as moxibustion reaches the approximate position, it can produce results. Therefore, moxibustion is easy to operate and can be accepted by most patients.

In addition, I also have some suggestions for friends with hyperthyroidism. After getting sick, you should stay in bed properly and exercise properly. Especially after meals 1 ~ 2 hours, try to limit activities and do physical exercise after two hours. Remember to exercise moderately to avoid overwork. Pay special attention to emotions.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people's mental state is closely related to the viscera and qi and blood of the body, and people's emotional activities are closely related to the function of "spirit". Anyone who keeps fresh and open-minded will recover quickly after illness.

Therefore, in daily life, patients with hyperthyroidism must maintain a positive and healthy attitude, don't be too impatient, relax when encountering things and avoid being too excited.

In terms of diet, it is mainly high in calories, protein and vitamins, and the intake of fat and sodium salt is moderate to reduce spicy and irritating foods.

Try to give priority to soft, digestible and nutritious foods;

Don't eat more foods with high iodine content, such as kelp, laver, jellyfish, laver and algae. No smoking, no drinking, no strong tea and coffee.
