Figure 2
Line chart showing the relationship between the distance of moxibustion and the temperature on the skin surface of acupoint ST36 of human subjects during needle-warming (mean ± SD, ). -axis indicates the distance between the moxa block and skin surface. Measurements were taken either with cardboard overlying the acupoint (with cardboard) or without (without cardboard). **.
