Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This literature review was researched to observe the evidence of effect of moxibustion in adipose tissue decomposition.
Methods : We reviewed studies which contained lipolysis effect of moxibustion treatment in Pubmed.
Results : Moxibuston improves blood flow in adipose tissue and stimulates metabolism in the course of lipolysis. Many studies reported that moxibustion stimulated reptin, insulin, testosterone, 5-HT and thromboxane. Especially, moxibustion triggers the HPA axis system, which has an effect on lipometabolism. Based on such effects, moxibustion is considered to have an effect on adipose tissue decomposition.
Conclusions : Although moxibution is considered to be effective in adipose tissue decomposition, futher study is needed.
