摘要
Moxibustion is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It achieved higher level of recognition and had more general application in ancient times than in contemporary life. As the vital historical sources, the records of unearthed literatures offered precious insights to Chinese social life pattern and medical practice in Qin and Han dynasties (221 BC-220 AD). There was no surprise that the bamboo and silk documents excavated from Mawangdui (sic) tomb, Hantanpo (sic) tomb, and other relics had a large amount of texts relevant tomoxibustion. This research sortedmoxibustion recordings from seven unearthed literatures and discovered that moxibustion had been developed into differentmodalities and utilized to treatmany diseases at that time. In addition, the indications, contraindications of moxibustion, and the method of postmoxibustion care were also discussed. On this basis, some hintswere provided to support the hypothesis that the practice of moxibustion led to the discovery of meridians. All our preliminary results in the research have drawn attention for this old therapy and given a new source for its application in clinic and scientific research.
