Herbal moxibustion works by spreading warmth and relieving tension in the abdomen, which can be beneficial for various gastrointestinal conditions. However, direct heat application can significantly impact the body’s elemental balance, so a thorough assessment is necessary before treatment. This method is not suitable for patients with surgical wounds or chronic conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, or colorectal cancer.
Traditional Thai medicine offers effective treatments for gastrointestinal disorders that can be as effective as modern medicine. The treatment combines manual techniques with herbal science to relieve symptoms of bloating, indigestion, and reflux. Diagnostic and assessment processes ensure that patients receive the most appropriate care to effectively address their symptoms.
