The era of intelligent moxibustion: the difference between moxibustion robots and manual moxibustion

At a time when health and wellness are increasingly gaining attention, moxibustion projects have become a dream project in the eyes of many stores. However, the idea is full, but the reality is relatively cruel. Many stores are overjoyed about the moxibustion project, but they are met with cold water at the start-up stage. When the traditional moxibustion project first started, the first challenge faced was to recruit and train moxibustion therapists. A skilled moxibustion therapist not only requires high labor costs and a long training cycle, but also has a high turnover rate, which undoubtedly increases the operating expenses of the store and increases the risk of service interruption. In addition, even if there are moxibustion therapists, the efficacy of physical moxibustion is difficult to quantify. Different moxibustion therapists use different methods, and the customer experience is also different.

Against this background, the era of intelligent moxibustion has quietly arrived, and the emergence of moxibustion robots has brought new changes to the moxibustion industry. Zhimei Kangmin Health Technology Co., Ltd., as a leader in the field of intelligent health, plays a key role in this change.

Zhimei Kangmin has gathered more than 100 professional R&D personnel, focusing on the research and development and production of intelligent health products. Its independently developed high-end sensors, high-precision mechanical arms and other supporting products give the moxibustion robot excellent performance. With the intelligent moxibustion robot as the core, the company has built an intelligent rehabilitation therapy model across the country, and at the same time built a high-quality consumables production industry to ensure the efficient operation of the entire industry chain.

• Differences in accuracy and stability: Artificial moxibustion is highly dependent on the experience and techniques of the moxibustion therapist. Different moxibustion therapists have different control over the positioning of acupoints, the intensity and time of moxibustion, which leads to uneven moxibustion effects. With the help of high-end sensors, Zhimei Kangmin's moxibustion robot can accurately identify acupoints with minimal error. Its high-precision mechanical arm can stably simulate various moxibustion techniques, and the intensity, angle and time of each moxibustion can be kept consistent, ensuring the stability and repeatability of the moxibustion effect.

• Differences in personalized services: During manual moxibustion, the moxibustion therapist can flexibly adjust the moxibustion plan based on the patient's real-time feedback and physical condition, and give the patient warm humanistic care. But the moxibustion robot is not to be outdone. It uses big data analysis and intelligent programs to tailor personalized moxibustion plans for patients based on their past moxibustion records, physical symptoms and other information. As the number of times it is used increases, the robot will have a deeper understanding of the patient's physical condition, and the moxibustion program will be more accurate.

• Comparison of efficiency and cost: From the perspective of labor costs, it takes time and effort to train a skilled moxibustionist, and labor costs account for a large proportion of operating costs. Although the initial R&D and equipment procurement costs of moxibustion robots are high, long-term use can greatly reduce labor costs and can work 24 hours a day. In terms of efficiency, manual moxibustion can only serve one patient at a time, and it needs to be re-prepared when changing patients. The process is cumbersome and inefficient. In Zhimei Kangmin's intelligent rehabilitation and physiotherapy chain stores, moxibustion robots can provide moxibustion services to multiple patients at the same time through a unified intelligent management system, greatly improving service efficiency and reducing time costs.

• Environmental and privacy considerations: During the process of manual moxibustion, burning moxa sticks will produce smoke, which not only pollutes indoor air, but also affects the outdoor environment if handled improperly. At the same time, in order to ensure environmental comfort, ventilation equipment must be equipped, which increases energy consumption costs. The moxibustion robot uses intelligent temperature control technology, which does not require direct burning of moxa sticks, reduces smoke emissions, and reduces environmental costs. In terms of privacy, patients may need to expose some parts of their body during manual moxibustion. Although moxibustion therapists will try their best to respect patients' privacy, there are still certain limitations. Moxibustion robots can be programmed to minimize the exposure of patients' bodies while ensuring the effectiveness of moxibustion, allowing patients to receive moxibustion in a relatively independent space and better protect personal privacy.

In the era of intelligent moxibustion, moxibustion robots and manual moxibustion each have their own advantages. Moxibustion robots perform well in accuracy, stability, efficiency, cost and privacy protection; manual moxibustion is unique in humanistic care and flexibility. In the future, the two may merge with each other, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, bring people a better moxibustion experience, and promote the vigorous development of the moxibustion industry.
