[Experimental research on characteristics of temperature field distribution of mild moxibustion and sparrow-pecking moxibustion].

Objective: To explore the temperature field distribution and variation rules during treatment with mild moxibustion and sparrow-pecking moxibustion of TCM.

Methods: Six healthy subjects were selected. Mild moxibustion and sparrow-pecking moxibustion were exerted at Zusanli (ST 36) respectively, for 25 min.
