Temperature curve of local skin at ST36 acupoint in mice during moxibustion. (a) Local skin temperature curve of ST36 acupoint in control group was stable at 32 ± 1°C, while the temperature in 38°C-MB group was stable at 38 ± 1°C (b) and in 46°C-MB group was stable at 38 ± 1°C (c), respectively, after 2-3 minutes of moxibustion intervention.
