| OBJECTIVE | THIS IS A 9 HOUR COURSE TO SELF CARE TO CUPPING AND MOXA. CUPPING IS AN ANCIENT CHINESE METHOD OF CAUSING LOCAL CONGESTION. A PARTIAL VACUUM IS CREATED IN CUPS PLACED ON THE SKIN EITHER BY MEANS OF HEAT OR SUCTION. THIS DRAWS UP THE UNDERLYING TISSUES. WHEN THE CUP IS LEFT ON THE SKIN FOR A FEW MINUTES, BLOOD STASIS IS FORMED AND LOCALISED HEATING TAKES PLACE. THE MOXA STICK IS THE MOST COMMON FORM IN WHICH MOXIBUSTION IS USED TO PROMOTE HEALTH. HERE THE DRIED MUGWORT IS ROLLED UP TIGHTLY AND WRAPPED IN PAPER FORMING A CIGAR-LIKE STICK. . THE MOXA CAN BE HELD IN ONE STICK, ROTATED IN CIRCLES,OR PECKED IN A MOTION SIMILAR TO SPARROW PECKING AT FOOD OVER THE AREA OF AN ACUPUNCTURE POINT. THE PRACTITIONER PLACES A FINGER NEXT TO THE POINT BEING STIMULATED TO MAINTAIN A COMFORTABLE LEVEL OF HEAT AND TO GUARD THE PATIENT FROM THE UNLIKELY RISK OF BURN. 了解拔罐、艾灸和艾条，9个小时的自我保健课程。拔罐是中国古代用来疏通经络堵塞的一种疗法。 以杯罐作工具，借热力、抽气等排去其中的空气产生负压，使之吸附于体表，造成局部淤血，已达到通经活络等作用的疗法。 “艾灸棒”是艾灸用于健康调理最常见的形式。 把干燥的艾蒿紧紧地卷起，裹在纸里，形成一支像雪茄般的条状圆柱。艾灸条在皮肤上可以做旋转转动，或者在穴位上以类似于麻雀啄食的进行“雀啄”。 从业者可将手指放在刺激点旁边，以保持舒适的受热程度，来保护患者防止烫伤的危险。 |
