Abstract:
Foundation: Not many research and study has been made on locating moxibustion pointsand its’ relating pain. That’s why there is asignificant need for this particular research. Purpose: We will compare the Mongolian scientists’ studyand research from “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script” on head-point moxibustion with some of the classic studies from the Far East and define the distinctive features. The subject of study and method of research:We’ve studied and compared the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script” with “The Four Medical Tantras” “Blue Beryl”, “Lighting the darkness of the luminance of regulation”.We’ve used hermeneutics and comparisons in our study. Result:One of the main subjects of the study, head-point moxibustion in “MongolianTraditional Moxibustion Script” was also similar with the head-point moxibustion and treatment instructions of “The FourMedical Tantras”, “Blue Beryl” and “Lighting the darkness of the luminance of regulation”. We’ve encountered three moxibustion points that are in the same site with different treatment instructions.Also there were 9 points not mentioned in the above 3 scripts, but were included in the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script”. Summary:By studying the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script”, it was clear that moxibustion is generally effective on pains from predominant cool, rlungbadgan.Although the moxibustion points were similar on some other scripts, the divergent treatment instructions became the distinctive feature. Discussion: Moxibustion is generally used on pains from predominant cool, rlungbadgan. This type of pain originates from the “Mongolian subsistence” and the best cure for it is moxibustion. Therefore we need to explore and improve moxibustion with wise management and planning.
