Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an external-use medicinal composition for health care and physical therapy, in particular to a plaster product integrating heating, essential oil penetration and moxibustion functions, and belongs to the technical field of traditional health care and physical therapy. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion therapy is a traditional physical therapy method with a long history in traditional Chinese medicine. It usually generates heat on specific acupuncture points by burning wormwood or other herbs to achieve the purpose of treating diseases and conditioning the body. Moxibustion therapy has the effects of relieving pain, improving circulation, regulating qi and blood, and enhancing immunity. In addition, essential oil therapy, as a modern therapy that achieves therapeutic purposes by penetrating the skin with plant essential oils, has gradually attracted attention. Essential oil therapy can relieve pain and inflammation through local application, massage, bathing, etc. Essential oil, as an extracted ingredient with better activity, can better play the role of the medicinal materials themselves. If essential oils are combined with moxibustion, it can help improve the efficacy of moxibustion itself.

[0003] Traditional moxibustion requires burning wormwood, which is not only inconvenient to carry and use, but may also have strong odor, smoke irritation, skin burns, respiratory sensitivity and other problems. If you only use wormwood essential oil, you need to continuously massage in circles with your hands to generate heat, and it is not easy to stimulate acupoints. The use process is time-consuming and inconvenient. Therefore, how to effectively combine moxibustion therapy with essential oil therapy to form a physical therapy product that is easy to use, simple to operate, and easy to carry is a potential market demand. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to conveniently realize and improve moxibustion therapy, the present invention provides a moxibustion cream and a preparation method thereof which can simultaneously realize the moxibustion warm stimulation of acupoints and the essential oil penetration function, and is convenient to use, safe and environmentally friendly, and suitable for family physiotherapy and daily health care.
