and is significantly more effective than general moxibustion. We aimed to review GVM

including its theoretical basis

choices of moxibustion points and materials

operation procedures

clinical applications

and contraindications. This information could increase the appropriate use of GVM and support further in-depth research.

Abstract

Moxibustion is an ancient therapeutic technique used in Chinese medicine. Governor Vessel moxibustion (GVM) was developed from long snake moxibustion

a popular technique used in China’s Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces

and is significantly more effective than general moxibustion. We aimed to review GVM

including its theoretical basis

choices of moxibustion points and materials

operation procedures

clinical applications

and contraindications. This information could increase the appropriate use of GVM and support further in-depth research.
