About this study
Official title: Clinical Trials for Comparison Between Shingigu and Charcoal Moxa on CV-12
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of Shingigu and Charcoal moxibustion scientifically and objectively.
Read the detailed description
Moxibustion is traditional treatment that regulate circulation of Qi-blood by making the body warm to prevent and treat disease. Recently many kinds of moxibustion and moxibustion apparatus were developed. However evaluating efficacy of moxibustion is insufficient. Thus, there is need for objective evaluating about efficacy of moxibustion.
