[0013] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects: The moxa sticks described in this application, calculated by weight of the raw materials, include 10-30g of moxa wool, 70-90g of saposhnikovia root, 30-50g of licorice root, 18-26g of fennel, 16-28g of atractylodes rhizome, 10-33g of cinnamon, 14-29g of trachelospermum jasminoides, 17-24g of homalomena occulta root, 12-34g of Sichuan pepper, and 14-28g of red ginseng powder; Accordingly, this application also discloses the preparation method of the above-mentioned moxa stick. First, various medicinal materials are prepared and pre-treated. Then, moxa wool is mixed with each raw material to prepare an inner layer filler, a middle layer filler, and an outer layer filler. Next, a first mulberry bark paper is laid, and the inner layer filler is filled into the first mulberry bark paper. The first mulberry bark paper is then rolled up to prepare an inner core layer. The middle layer filler is then uniformly mixed with glycerin and wrapped around the outer surface of the inner core layer. The middle layer is then wrapped with a second mulberry bark paper. The outer layer filler is then uniformly mixed with starch glue and mixed into a paste and wrapped around the surface of the middle layer. The middle layer is then wrapped with a third mulberry bark paper to prepare a semi-finished moxa stick. Finally, the semi-finished moxa stick is placed in a drying oven for baking. The baked moxa stick is then placed in a cotton bag for aging to prepare a moxa stick.

[0014] Compared with the existing technology, this application makes a combustible moxa stick by mixing various Chinese medicinal materials with moxa wool. The medicine in the moxa stick comes into contact with acupoints in an incompletely burned state, and its effective ingredients will directly enter the human body through the acupoints and then be transmitted through the meridians, thereby achieving the effect of warming the meridians and dispelling cold, and thus achieving the purpose of treatment. Secondly, compared with the existing technology, this application divides the entire moxa stick into an inner layer, a middle layer and an outer layer, which can achieve synergistic effects through the functional division of different layers, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect of the moxa stick; the inner layer of moxa wool burns to produce a warming effect, directly stimulating acupoints and promoting local blood circulation; at the same time, the volatile oils of moxa wool (such as eucalyptol) and the saponins of red ginseng powder are released synergistically, which are absorbed through the skin and enter the meridians to improve the microcirculation of the brain; The middle layer has a moderate combustion temperature, and the drug diffuses in gaseous form, penetrating into deep tissues through acupoints. For example, the volatile oil in Saposhnikovia divaricata (such as cimicifuga glycoside) can inhibit inflammatory factors, the atractylone in Atractylodes lancea can regulate immunity, and the flavonoids in Trachelospermum jasminoides (such as luteolin) have antioxidant properties, which together reduce neuroinflammation after stroke. The outer layer has a lower combustion temperature, forming a protective smoke barrier that slows down the volatilization rate of the inner layer of drugs, prolongs the duration of action, and avoids skin burns. Linalool from Sichuan pepper and anethole from fennel can dilate blood vessels, while glycyrrhizic acid from licorice harmonizes the medicinal properties and reduces irritation. The inner layer works rapidly, the middle layer provides continuous regulation, and the outer layer protects and enhances efficacy, conforming to the traditional Chinese medicine principle of "treating the symptoms in acute cases and addressing the root cause in chronic cases." Through this synergistic effect, the therapeutic effect can be effectively improved. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Reference Figure 1This embodiment, as an optional embodiment of this application, discloses a medicinal moxa stick, characterized in that, calculated by the weight of the raw materials, it includes 10-30g of moxa wool, 70-90g of saposhnikovia root, 30-50g of licorice root, 18-26g of fennel, 16-28g of atractylodes rhizome, 10-33g of cinnamon, 14-29g of trachelospermum jasminoides, 17-24g of homalomena occulta, 12-34g of Sichuan pepper, 14-28g of red ginseng powder, 13-28g of frankincense, 15-30g of myrrh, and 4-16g of notoginseng. Specifically, the moxa stick contains the following raw materials by weight: 20g of moxa wool, 80g of saposhnikovia root, 40g of licorice root, 20g of fennel, 20g of atractylodes rhizome, 20g of cinnamon, 20g of trachelospermum jasminoides, 20g of stellaria root, 20g of Sichuan pepper, 20g of red ginseng powder, 20g of frankincense, 20g of myrrh, and 10g of notoginseng. Implementation Method 2

[0022] As another optional embodiment of this application, it discloses a method for preparing a medicinal moxa stick, including the following steps: S1. Prepare medicinal materials and pre-treat various medicinal materials; Prepare all the medicinal materials involved in the formula, and use a low-temperature pulverizing device to pulverize all the raw materials except for the mugwort floss separately. The pulverization mesh size is 80-100 mesh, and the pulverization temperature is not higher than 60℃. Drug pulverization ensures thorough mixing and combustion of the drugs, thereby releasing their active ingredients. Furthermore, using low-temperature pulverization equipment helps to better preserve the active ingredients and improve the therapeutic effect of moxa sticks. S2. Mix the mugwort floss with each raw material to prepare the inner layer filler, the middle layer filler and the outer layer filler; The inner layer filler is prepared by weight of the raw materials, including: 4-12g of Artemisia argyi, 13-28g of frankincense, 15-30g of myrrh, 4-16g of Panax notoginseng, and 14-28g of red ginseng powder. Take various raw materials according to the above content, and then mix the red ginseng powder and mugwort floss evenly. The remaining raw material powders are then mixed evenly and then evenly mixed with the mixture of red ginseng powder and mugwort floss to prepare the inner layer filler. Based on the weight of the raw materials, the intermediate layer fillers include: Saposhnikovia divaricata 70-90g, Atractylodes lancea 16-28g, Cinnamomum cassia 10-33g, Trachelospermum jasminoides 14-29g and Homalomena occulta 17-24g; Based on the weight of the raw materials, the outer filler includes: 12-34g of Sichuan pepper, 30-50g of licorice, and 18-26g of fennel.

[0023] It should be noted that, after the fabrication is completed, the mass ratio of the inner layer packing, the middle layer packing, and the outer layer packing is 3:4:3 based on the total weight. S3. Lay out the first mulberry bark paper, fill the inner layer filler into the first mulberry bark paper, and wind the first mulberry bark paper to prepare the inner core layer; Lay out the first mulberry bark paper, then prepare a cylindrical mold, wrap the first mulberry bark paper around the mold, and finally stick it together with starch glue; After the starch glue has completely solidified, remove the first mulberry paper that was wrapped around it, and then fill in the inner filler. During the filling process, it is necessary to use tools such as wooden sticks to compact the inner filler, thereby preparing the inner core layer.

[0024] S4. The intermediate layer filler is uniformly mixed with glycerin and then wrapped around the outer surface of the inner core layer, and then wrapped with a second mulberry paper to prepare the intermediate layer; wherein the thickness of the intermediate layer is 0.3-0.4 cm, and the amount of glycerin added is 5-15 g; The intermediate layer filler is stirred and mixed evenly with glycerin. Then, the mixed raw material is evenly wrapped on the surface of the inner core layer. Finally, the intermediate layer is prepared by wrapping it with a second mulberry paper. The thickness of the intermediate layer is 0.3-0.4 cm, and the amount of glycerin added is 5-15 g. The addition of glycerin can effectively regulate the burning speed of the moxa stick, thereby adjusting the duration of action. S5. Mix the outer layer filler and starch glue evenly and adjust them into a paste, then wrap it on the surface of the middle layer, and then wrap it with a third mulberry bark paper to prepare a semi-finished moxa stick. The outer layer filler is mixed with starch glue and stirred into a paste with a consistency that does not drip. The prepared filler is then evenly applied to the surface of the middle layer. After application, it is wrapped with a third layer of mulberry paper to prepare a semi-finished moxa stick. S6. Place the semi-finished moxa sticks in a drying oven to bake, and then place the baked moxa sticks in a cotton bag to age and prepare moxa sticks.

[0025] The semi-finished moxa sticks are placed in a drying oven and baked at a temperature of 40-55℃ for 6-8 hours. The moisture content of the moxa sticks after baking is 25-35%.

[0026] During the baking process, the semi-finished moxa sticks need to be turned over once every 1-2 hours. After baking, the baked moxa sticks are placed in a cotton bag for aging to prepare moxa sticks. The temperature of the cotton bag containing the moxa sticks is 20-25℃, the humidity of the aging environment is 40-55%, and the aging time is 1-2 months.

[0027] This application produces a combustible moxa stick by mixing various Chinese medicinal herbs with moxa wool. The medicine in the moxa stick comes into contact with acupoints in an incompletely burned state, and its effective ingredients will directly penetrate the body through the acupoints and then be transmitted through the meridians, thereby achieving the effect of warming the meridians and dispelling cold, and thus achieving the purpose of treatment. Compared with existing technologies, this application divides the entire moxa stick into an inner layer, a middle layer, and an outer layer, which can achieve synergistic effects through the functional division of different layers, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect of the moxa stick. Among them, the burning of the inner layer of moxa wool produces a warming effect, which directly stimulates acupoints and promotes local blood circulation. At the same time, the volatile oils of moxa wool (such as eucalyptol) and the saponins of red ginseng powder are released synergistically, which are absorbed through the skin and enter the meridians to improve the microcirculation of the brain. The middle layer has a moderate combustion temperature, and the drug diffuses in gaseous form, penetrating into deep tissues through acupoints. For example, the volatile oil in Saposhnikovia divaricata (such as cimicifuga glycoside) can inhibit inflammatory factors, the atractylone in Atractylodes lancea can regulate immunity, and the flavonoids in Trachelospermum jasminoides (such as luteolin) have antioxidant properties, which together reduce neuroinflammation after stroke. The outer layer has a lower combustion temperature, forming a protective smoke barrier that slows down the volatilization rate of the inner layer of drugs, prolongs the duration of action, and avoids skin burns. Linalool from Sichuan pepper and anethole from fennel can dilate blood vessels, while glycyrrhizic acid from licorice harmonizes the medicinal properties and reduces irritation. The inner layer takes effect quickly, the middle layer provides continuous regulation, and the outer layer provides protection and enhanced efficacy. This synergistic effect aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine principle of "treating the symptoms in acute cases and addressing the root cause in chronic cases," effectively improving therapeutic efficacy through these combined effects.

[0028] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
