As children grow and develop, their body functions are not yet fully developed. Therefore, children should also pay attention to their own health care. The health care method of moxa fumigation in traditional Chinese medicine is very suitable for children who are still in the process of growth and development.

First, what are the benefits of moxa fumigation for children? Children's cold is a pediatric disease that parents often encounter, and it is also the most worrying disease for parents in life. When children catch a cold, they usually suffer from high fever, cough, nasal congestion and headache. Many times, medicine and injections are ineffective, and sometimes it takes six or seven days of intravenous drip to see improvement. Faced with their children's suffering, parents often feel helpless. Moxibustion has a good therapeutic effect on children's colds. In many cases, the symptoms of colds can be eliminated in a day or two. Parents who master the method of moxibustion will help their children solve their pain in a timely manner.

Second, since children are in a critical period of growth and development, it is generally not recommended to use antibiotics or other drugs with side effects after a cold. Moxibustion regulates the balance of the body system by opening up the meridians and stimulates the child's self-recovery ability, so it does not have any side effects. After parents master this method, they can not only treat the disease in time when their children have a cold, but also enhance their children's immunity in normal times. It is indeed a good helper for family health.

What are the benefits of moxa fumigation for children? Children will have a fever when they catch a cold, and fever is the body's instinct. Fever is used to expel the cold in the body. For example, if our hand is pinched by the door, we will find that our hand is particularly hot. This is because the qi and blood are all transferred to repair your wound. Therefore, we can use the heat of moxibustion to save our body's energy. For children with fever, as well as those with acute tonsillitis, mumps, hand, foot and mouth disease, and recurring high fever, moxibustion is particularly good for clearing heat and purging fire. Children nowadays will eat too much and too many different kinds of food if they are not careful, which will cause stagnation of spleen qi. Moxibustion once or twice a week can replenish qi and blood in the spleen meridian, nourish the spleen and stomach, and has a very good effect on eliminating accumulation and invigorating the spleen. Especially for those children who often don’t like to eat, have bloating and cough after eating, you can give them moxibustion on the Gongsun acupoint, push from the toes toward the heel, and rub it until it is warm.
