The application of moxibustion originated from the use of fire after human mastery, and the time was also in the Stone Age.
Moxibustion originated in ancient China, because its mechanism of action is similar to acupuncture therapy, and it has a complementary therapeutic effect with acupuncture therapy. Acupuncture is usually used together, so it is called acupuncture.
