艾灸防治炎性病症的临床应用举隅

Clinical Application of Moxibustion in the Prevention and Treatment of Inflammatory Disease

艾灸作为一种传统的治疗手段,具有温通阳气、温补气血、提高免疫力、抗炎的作用。炎性病症并非均需清热解毒,滥用清热解毒类药物往往导致炎症未消,阳气已伤。艾灸防治炎性病症,具有药物和针刺所不能取代的优势。作者通过5年的社区临床工作,发现艾灸对于急性上呼吸道感染、强直性脊柱炎、肩周炎、盆腔炎、急慢性胃肠炎及其他炎性疾病的防治均有显著效果。艾灸疗效确切、简单易行、不良作用少,对于施术者没有特殊要求,适合推广应用和研究开发。
