ABSTRACT
To summarize and discuss the operating technique of ancient moxibustion with the consulting of some relevant literatures. In the ancient, the dosage of the moxibustion was based on the size and the number of moxa cones, the feelings of patients and their reaction after the treatment. Of them, the size and the number of moxa cones were estimated by doctors own experience, and it would be more objective and suitable for patients' needs if the dose was additionally decided on the reactions of patients (pain, post-moxibustion sore, sweating, spots and so on). It could have significance for improving clinical effects if attention is paid to the feelings and reactions of patients, the size and the number of moxa cones and the time of moxibustion.
