Abstract
In order to obtain the clinical data on the different effects of the three different methods of indirect moxibustion, moxa-combustion time, peak temperature, average temperature, maximum gradient temperature, average gradient temperature, and moxa-combustion calorie rate of the retaining period in ARIRANG, JANG, PUNG were measured through this experiment. The results of the experiment were as follows : 1. In the combustion time, during the retaining period ARIRANG had the longest combustion time followed by PUNG, JANG in a descending order. ARIRANG and JANG were acknowledged to have significant difference with PUNG. ARIRANG and JANG however were not acknowledged to have difference each other. 2. In the average temperature, during the retaining period, PUNG had the highest temperature followed by JANG, ARIRANG in a descending order. ARIRANG and JANG were acknowledged to have significant difference with PUNG. ARIRANG and JANG however were not acknowledged to have difference each other. 3. In the maximum gradient temperature, during the retaining period, PUNG had the highest temperature followed by JANG, ARIRANG in a descending order. JANG and PUNG were acknowledged to have significant difference with ARIRANG. JANG and PUNG however were not acknowledged to have difference each other. 4. In the average gradient temperature, during the retaining period, JANG had the highest temperature followed by ARIRANG, PUNG in a descending order. ARIRANG and JANG were acknowledged to have significant difference with PUNG. ARIRANG and JANG however were not acknowledged to have difference each other. 5. In the moxa-combustion calorie rate, during the retaining period, PUNG had the highest temperature, ARIRANG, JANG were founded in error limits. ARIRANG and JANG were acknowledged to have significant difference with PUNG. ARIRANG and JANG however were not acknowledged to have difference each other.
