Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of umbilical moxibustion, and in particular relates to a molding mold for an moxa cone and a medicine bowl for umbilical moxibustion. Background Technology

[0002] Umbilical moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine external treatment method with a long history. Its core principle is based on the theory of meridians and acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine. It considers the "Shenque" acupoint, located on the abdomen, to be a vital point on the Ren meridian, connecting with all the meridians and internal organs. It possesses special effects such as warming and invigorating the primordial Yang, harmonizing Qi and blood, reviving and consolidating the body, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and regulating the intestines and stopping diarrhea. By applying moxibustion (usually combined with medication) to the Shenque acupoint, it can stimulate the flow of Qi, unblock the meridians, and regulate the functions of the internal organs, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.

[0003] The existing forms of umbilical moxibustion mainly include the following: First, indirect moxibustion, which involves placing specific Chinese medicine powder or cake on the Shenque acupoint and then placing moxa cones on top for moxibustion; second, medicated umbilical moxibustion, which involves directly filling the navel with prepared Chinese medicine ointment, paste, or pills, sometimes supplemented with moxa sticks suspended above the navel, or covered with gauze or adhesive tape for fixation, so that the medicine can be continuously absorbed through the skin of the navel; and third, umbilical therapy patches, which involve directly applying medicated patches to the navel to achieve transdermal absorption of the medicine and a certain degree of physical stimulation.

[0004] The above-mentioned methods of umbilical moxibustion have the following drawbacks: The operation is cumbersome and relies heavily on the operator's experience. For example, traditional methods require manual filling of medicine, shaping, placement of moxa, and temperature control, which are complex steps and can easily affect efficacy due to improper operation; Standardization is low, with no uniform standard for the shape, dosage, and size of the moxa cone, leading to unstable treatment effects; Efficiency is low, with each treatment taking a long time (more than 15 minutes), which is unsuitable for the fast-paced needs of modern medicine; Safety hazards exist, as manual operation can easily lead to uneven distribution of medicine or tilting of the moxa cone, increasing the risk of burns.
