Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of warm acupuncture and moxibustion, and in particular relates to a warm acupuncture and moxibustion device with a heat conduction mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Warm acupuncture is a treatment that combines traditional acupuncture with heat therapy. In this treatment, the practitioner uses warming hands or devices on acupuncture points to enhance the effects of acupuncture. Warm acupuncture can help relieve muscle and joint pain and reduce chronic pain. Heat can increase local blood circulation and enhance the body's natural healing ability. The warming effect helps relax tense muscles and relieve spasms and stiffness. By improving local blood flow, it may help improve the function of the immune system.

[0003] Compared to traditional acupuncture, heat can enhance the effectiveness of acupuncture, especially in cold and wet environments. Many people find warm acupuncture more comfortable than acupuncture alone, especially for people with cold constitutions. The addition of heat therapy can help with deep relaxation and sometimes lead to a better overall treatment experience. Overall, warm acupuncture may provide a more comprehensive treatment effect by adding heat stimulation to traditional acupuncture.

[0004] Most existing warm acupuncture methods involve igniting moxa sticks and placing them on top of acupuncture needles, which makes it difficult to ensure the heat transfer effect and is easy to fall off, causing damage to the skin. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a warm acupuncture device with a heat conduction mechanism, which can solve the problem that most existing warm acupuncture methods are to place the moxa stick on the top of the acupuncture needle after lighting it, which is difficult to ensure the heat transfer effect and is easy to fall off, causing damage to the skin.

It includes a top cover, a filter and a mounting platform. The diameter of the top cover is consistent with the top of the fixing part. The mounting platform is used to fix the moxa stick, and the filter screen filters the combustion smoke. There is a vertical mounting needle in the center of the mounting platform, and flexible mounting claws are arranged around to fix the moxa stick.

[0060] The heat insulation is located at the connection between the acupuncture needle and the fixing part, which is used to prevent the heat of the moxa stick from directly contacting the skin and protecting the skin from high temperature damage.

[0061] The heat conducting mechanism effectively transfers the heat generated by the burning moxa stick to the acupuncture needle to ensure the effect of warm acupuncture. It includes a bottom heat focusing mirror and a top heat reflecting mirror. The bottom heat focusing mirror is fixed between the temperature regulating part and the fixing part, with the focus at the end of the acupuncture needle, and is used to focus the heat. The top heat reflecting mirror is located on the top of the fixing part, reflecting the heat generated by the moxa stick toward the acupuncture needle.

[0138] Heating time: Start the device and let the moxa stick burn for 15-20 minutes. During this time, maintain a stable temperature to ensure that the heat is evenly transferred to the acupuncture needles.

[0139] Effect:

[0140] Relieve headaches: Warm stimulation helps relax head muscles, improve blood circulation, and relieve headaches caused by tension or fatigue.

[0141] Example 5: Improvement of joint stiffness

[0142] Warm acupuncture device: equipped with specially designed acupuncture needles and a temperature-regulating moxa stick mounting part, with the temperature regulator set at a medium to high level (about 50°C).

[0143] Equipment: Device with temperature regulation, timer and adjustable moxa holder.

[0144] application:

[0145] Acupuncture location: Select the horizontal coordinate points around the knee joint (such as Yanglingquan and Xiyan points at the hip joint and knee joint).

[0146] Preparation: Clean and disinfect the acupuncture site before treatment, and make sure the skin around the joint is clean.

[0147] Light the moxa stick: Light the moxa stick and install it in the device, adjusting the height and position to ensure that the heat is concentrated on the joint area.

[0148] Acupuncture: Insert the acupuncture needle into the Yanglingquan and Xiyan points, with the insertion depth of each point being about 0.5-1 cm.

[0149] Heating time: Start the device and let the moxa stick burn for 20-25 minutes. During this time, keep the temperature stable to ensure that the heat is evenly transferred to the acupuncture needles.

[0150] Effect:

[0151] Improve joint stiffness: Warm stimulation helps relax the muscles and soft tissues around the joints and increase blood circulation, thereby improving joint flexibility and reducing stiffness.

[0152] Specifically, the principle of the present invention is: when using, ensure that all parts of the device are clean and properly assembled. Gently insert the acupuncture needle into the acupuncture point on the skin to ensure the correct position. Install the fixing member 20 on the top of the acupuncture needle 10, and the bottom is fixedly connected to the skin. Light the moxa stick and put it into the moxa stick mounting part of the fixing member. When the moxa stick burns, the heat is transferred to the acupuncture needle through the fixing member. Monitor the temperature and the feeling of the acupuncture needle to ensure that the temperature is moderate and comfortable. Adjust the height and position of the moxa stick as needed. After the treatment is over, extinguish the moxa stick, remove the acupuncture needle and perform appropriate disinfection. Clean the device and save it.
