Sexual apathy? Try this and you may be in mood very soon!

In the past two years, many friends, most of them are women, asked me questions about sexual apathy which has always been an annoyance for them. It is meaningful to share their experience.

In fact, many women in the country suffer from sexual apathy. It is a worse thing for couples to prevent them from getting sexual satisfaction. Sexual apathy may turn into a cold war between couples. They love their husbands and boyfriends as much as the common people, but the thing is they are just not in mood when it comes to have sex.

Seeing so many women have the same problem as you, do you feel more released, because you are not alone? Maybe you should!

Some women shared that they resorted to traditional Chinese Medicine and perform moxibustion for some time. They gradually found progress and their resistance against sex became less stronger.

If you are in the same situation like them, you can try what they performed. It is recommended that you should perform moxibustion above the these acupoints: Jianjing(GB21), Guanyuan(RN4), Sanyinjiao(SP6), and your navel.

Maybe I can live a longer life by performing moxibustion

The story is about the long-lived elderly in Japan during the period of Tokugawa Shogunate. The old man was Wanbingwei(transliteration) from a long-lived family in which his wife lived 173 years, his son 153 years, his grandson 105 years and he himself 174 years. The legend goes that, they were all very vigorous and in extremely good health. When asked what contributed to his longevity, Wanbingwei answered, ' I perform moxibustion above the acupoint Zusanli every day and this is our family secret prescription handed down from my ancestors. Nothing more.'

Two Ways to Get a Moxibustion

People from China know the benefits of performing moxibustion very well. And the good thing is more and more foreigners want to know more about it as their desire for good health become stronger. Moxibustion therapy is easy to learn and can be performed by yourself at home.

Mugwort

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy involving the burning of mugwort to help people healthier in China. Generally speaking, there are two ways to get a moxibustion. One is direct moxibustion and the other is indirect moxibustion.

Direct moxibustion can be divided into two types, namely, scaring and non-scaring moxibustion. With scarring moxibustion, the moxa stick, the size of a soybean or a jujube pit, is placed directly on the acupoint and remains there until the stick is completely burnt out. This will lead to blisters and scarring which will be left permanently on the skin. This way, more or less will cause pain and damage beauty. Therefore, it is unsuitable for those who suffer scar diathesis.

Traditional way for moxibustion 

As for non-scarring moxibustion, the moxa stick is placed on the point and removed before it burns the skin. The patient will not experience pain, blistering or scarring. This way is suitable for adults who can endure the heat it causes.

At present, indirect moxibustion is the more popular for health care in China since the patient will have a lower risk of pain and burning. The patient lights one end of a moxa stick, roundly the size of a cigar, and holds it close to the acupoint or the area that cause discomfort for some minutes until the area turns red. It will take quite some time before the moxa stick is completely burnt out. It is a little troublesome and tired to perform moxibustion in this way so some new designs and devices are invented in modern China for the purpose of getting a more convenient moxibustion. Thus, the old and young, man and women, all can perform moxibustion anywhere and anytime and enjoy the sense of comfort it brings.

General Introduction about Acupuncture-moxibustion Therapy

Acupuncture-moxibustion therapy
Acupuncture-moxibustion therapy (zhēn jiǔ liáo fǎ 针灸疗法) which mainly consists of both acupuncture (zhēn jiǔ 针灸) and moxibustion (ài jiǔ 艾灸) is an unique approach to medical care in China and is also an indispensable component of Chinese medicine (zhōng yī 中医). The acupuncture treatment is the insertion of different fine needles on the body's surface according to a certain point (xué wèi 穴位), to stimulate certain parts of the body and use various methods to evoke the channels (jīng luò 经络) as well as the vital energy (qì 气) of human body, in order to adjust physiological functioning of the body so to cure diseases. Moxibustion is the burning of moxa (ài 艾) on or near a person's skin as a counterirritant. For a long time, acupuncture and moxibustion treatment are often combined together in clinical practice application, therefore we collectively referred to them as Acupuncture-moxibustion therapy.

Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese method of treating disease or relieving pain by inserting one or more metal needles (zhēn 针) at a certain point or certain points of the human body. The earliest written record that is available about acupuncture is Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine (orYellow Emperor's Inner Canon  huáng dì nèi jīng 黄帝内经), which suggests acupuncture originated in China and would explain why it is most commonly associated with traditional Chinese medicine.

An acupuncturist (针灸医生 zhēn jiǔ yī shēng) usually pays due attention to the basic techniques including the way the needle is inserted rapidly or slowly, the depth of insertion, the length of time the needle should be left in the body, and the number of needles required to the treatment.


Moxibustion
According to Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, "the coldness hidden in the body would bring illness which could be expelled through moxibustion". Moxibustion, another effective therapy, was discovered by ancient people when they sat down around a fire. They found that the heat not only kept them warm but also relieved physical pains. Then they started to use moxa leaves for the same purpose. Today, in the treatment moxa leaves are ignited over certain points on the skin's surface.
