The "moxibustion stool" costing more than 5,000 yuan claims to cure all diseases. Is it true?

Or an "IQ tax"?

With the improvement of the quality of life, more and more middle-aged and elderly people have joined the health care army. After all, everyone wants a healthy body. The most famous ones are probably massage parlors or pedicure parlors, which always have long queues.

Teams, especially when engaging in activities, will most likely see information related to “moxibustion stools”.

I don’t know if you have heard of moxibustion stools. Businessmen have exaggeratedly praised the efficacy of moxibustion stools. Some elderly people even said: "Moxibustion stools can cure infertility", and some other elderly people said

: "Taking love may have the effect of lowering blood pressure and blood sugar."

Does such praise really have miraculous curative effects?

I think everyone may be a little surprised after knowing its price. A seemingly inconspicuous small stool was exaggerated by the merchant, and the asking price was actually around 5,000 yuan!

01 What exactly is the "sky-high-priced moxa-moxibustion stool" worth more than 5,000 yuan? Moxibustion stools are usually surrounded by several side walls, with an opening at the bottom and a built-in steel mesh for placing moxa sticks. There is no seat board with openings on the top.

It is convenient to discharge the smoke after burning the moxa sticks, so as to achieve the effect of local moxibustion.

The merchant said: The efficacy of moxibustion stool can warm women's meridians and unblock meridians, promote qi and blood circulation, and warm and replenish yang energy.

So friends who regularly maintain health must know about moxibustion. It is a very traditional Chinese medicine conditioning method that has been passed down to this day. Its main function is to treat the symptoms of cold body, dampness, weak spleen and stomach, and it has a very good therapeutic effect. It is indeed particularly magical.

, and moxibustion will also make the body particularly comfortable.

The slogan "cure all diseases" is used to lure the health needs of the elderly.

Such rhetoric will inevitably tempt the elderly who are engaged in health care. Even if they do not buy it, some elderly people will still spend money to get a card for treatment. It can only be said that the publicity is too good.

Or an "IQ tax"?

Nowadays, people have various tools for moxibustion. There are moxibustion benches with a hollow center, which is for yin moxibustion. But in fact, from a professional point of view, moxibustion cannot be done on the perineum.

The reason why moxibustion cannot be performed on the perineum is because it has very few acupoints, only the perineum point, and many people have hair in the perineal area, which is prone to burns and damage to the hair.

Moreover, there is a lot of mucosal tissue in the perineum area, and the skin is very thin and rich in sensory nerves. Moxibustion is not allowed on the mucosa in this area.

If it is slightly hot, the area will easily blister. The skin is very thin, and it will not heal easily after the blister emerges. Because it is not breathable, it is prone to suppuration and infection. Therefore, clinical doctors never use moxibustion, and it has no scientific value.

.

In addition, the Shenyang Municipal Market Supervision and Administration Bureau of Liaoning Province has filed a case for false publicity related to the "moxibustion stool". According to relevant investigations, no relevant information was found either in the National Medical Products Administration or on the official website of the relevant product organization.

Official licensing information for moxibustion stools.

Therefore, everyone must have their own common sense in life, especially for middle-aged and elderly people, health maintenance is very correct, but you must pay attention to the deception of merchants and do not be deceived.
