Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: the lung meridian intervention group
moxibustion intervention was performed over Site 1 (LU5) of the lung meridian
|
In this study, suspended moxibustion was performed by holding an ignited moxa stick at a certain distance (about 3-4 cm) over the skin surface, keeping the moxibustion Site warm without burning the skin. In the heart meridian intervention group, moxibustion was applied over Site 4 (HT3) of the heart meridian. In the lung meridian intervention group, moxibustion was performed over Site 1 (LU5) of the lung meridian. |
