ABSTRACT
As an important part of acupuncture-moxibustion therapy, moxibustion prevents and treats diseases by regulating meridians and organs via the stimulation of heat, moxa smoke and infrared. During the recent years, study on the effect of moxibustion in preventing and treating diseases has achieved a great progress.
