Scleroderma is a connective tissue disease characterized by localized skin hardening and atrophy, which can be categorized under the "Pi Bi" (skin impediment) and "Ji Bi" (muscle impediment) in the context of Traditional Chinese Medicine's "Bi Syndrome".
It is recommended to perform moxibustion once a day, targeting 2 to 3 acupoints each time, with each acupoint being treated for 30 to 40 minutes. Rotate the points treated, with a 10-day period constituting one course of treatment, and then rest for 2 to 3 days before continuing with the next course.
(If time permits and there is a need, more acupoints can be treated with moxibustion. The specific duration should be adjusted according to one's own physical needs.)
