Treatment must adopt methods of warming the uterus, promoting blood circulation, and unblocking the meridians to improve the internal environment in which inflammation exists.
During moxibustion, four acupoints are selected: Guan Yuan, uterus, Ba Mao, and San Yin. Moxibustion itself has the characteristics of pure yang and meridian passage, and the treatment of gynecological cold and dampness syndrome is the most specialized feature of moxibustion, and the effect is also significant.
