MoxibustionA heat therapy in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Paperback, by Nusser, GritShang, Xiaoying, 128 pages, German Moxibustion is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is closely related to acupuncture. This therapy originates from the colder north of China. Acupuncture points are heated to treat energetic vacuity and cold conditions. The herb Artemisia vulgaris (mugwort) is used for this, which is set alight and emits an even, mild and deep-acting heat as it smoulders. The yang is strengthened and dispels external disease factors that can penetrate the surface of the body. Moxibustion is used to treat cold, wind and dampness-related illnesses, stimulate blood circulation and metabolism, boost the body's defenses and is suitable for states of exhaustion, convalescence after energy-sapping chronic illnesses, frequent urination, severe diarrhea... Pain is alleviated and healing is accelerated.

Special clays have been successfully used by people for thousands of years for healing purposes, especially for rheumatism and arthritis.Modern clinical studies and practical applications report particularly favorable results in poorly healing wounds, cardiovascular diseases, rheumatic complaints, bronchitis, high blood pressure, nerve pain, all kinds of inflammations, neurodermatitis and psoriasis, migraine, headaches, immune deficiency, age-related complaints, mental and physical decline (dementia), potency disorders, climacteric complaints and insomnia.The inventors of the Chinese heating lamp have already received numerous awards, including the gold and silver medals at the international inventors' fairs in Brussels and Zagreb. In the meantime, their healing lamps are successfully used worldwide in clinics as well as in the practices of doctors and alternative practitioners. In millions of private households, from China to the USA, sick people use these devices themselves. The heating lamp helps them to get well again. And it gives them an extra portion of vitality as well.NoteThis book serves as information about the possibilities of prevention and self-help in case of diseases. Those who use it do so on their own responsibility. The author and publisher do not intend to make individual diagnoses or give therapy recommendations.

Book Acupressure and Moxibustion 108 pages German, by Stux G. 2012 Acupressure is an important branch of the millennia-old Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine has become known mainly through acupuncture in Western hospitals, especially for its spectacular effects in pain therapy of chronic diseases and in anesthesia for operations on awake patients. Acupressure is the targeted massage of acupuncture points, achieving healing effects in mild and moderate diseases and disorders. Acupressure has been used for self-treatment since ancient times, and today it occupies an important place in the medical care of the population in the People's Republic of China. In recent years, the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine have been recognized in the West as well, and acupuncture and acupressure are attracting increasing interest. Acupressure is free of side effects and therefore offers advantages over the usual painkilling medicines, which are often associated with side effects. Moxibustion, the heating of acupuncture points to increase the body's strength in cases of weakness, is also an important branch of Chinese medicine. Moxibustion can be performed by the patient after consultation with the attending physician. The teaching concept for acupressure presented here is based on the experience gained in teaching hundreds of physicians in Germany and Asia in the field of Chinese medicine and especially acupuncture. In this acupressure book only the most important diseases and health disorders are presented.
