Fire therapy can be regarded as a kind of warm external therapy, which theoretically has the functions of expelling wind, dispelling cold and dredging meridians, and may have certain curative effect on some diseases invaded by exogenous pathogens, especially those caused by exogenous cold and meridian obstruction, such as joint and muscle pain.
The literature records of fire therapy can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. From 65438 to 0973, the silk books "Moxibustion Sutra of Eleven Veins in Foot and Arm" and "Moxibustion Sutra of Eleven Veins in Yin and Yang" are the earliest known monographs on meridians and the earliest medical classics recording fire moxibustion therapy.
Side effects: Generally speaking, if fire therapy is properly operated, it should not cause too much harm to health; But if it comes into direct contact with the skin, there are some safety problems. Even aside from safety, after cupping and moxibustion, the pores of the body are open, which is easy to lead to the invasion of wind evil and wet evil.

Fire therapy is not suitable for everyone.
Dr. Mo Xiaofeng, deputy chief physician of acupuncture department of Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that generally speaking, if properly operated, it should not cause too much harm to the body, but this so-called fire therapy is rare in regular hospitals. "If it is in direct contact with the skin, there are some safety problems. Even aside from safety, after doing similar cupping and moxibustion, the pores of the body are open, which is easy to lead to the invasion of wind evil and wet evil. "
Generally speaking, taking a bath immediately after fire moxibustion may indeed cause swelling and pain in joints and abdomen. However, these manifestations are not all caused by fire moxibustion, which requires further examination by internal medicine.
Dr. Mo Xiaofeng believes that not everyone is suitable for fire moxibustion, even ordinary cupping, it is best to go to a regular hospital and find a doctor for treatment suitable for their physique. "In addition, skin ulceration, diabetes, etc. Can't cup, also have very high requirements for specific parts. I can't do it if I want to. "
