摘      要：Moxibustion penetration is a therapy in which the moxibustion sensation promoted by moxa is felt deeply inside the tissues. When moxibustion is practiced to certain extent, the sensation conducts from the moxibustion site to the deep tissues and far ends, or muscular pulsation appears at the moxibustion site, or the patient feels comfortable, painful, heavy and itching or the patient has reaction as skin redness and even perspiration throughout the body after the moxibustion. The best effect of moxibustion is expected when local site becomes slightly and evenly red or there is sweating. The observation has shown that the moxibustion dosage is the key to enhancing the therapeutic effect.
