艾灸在中医理论中具有补泻双重作用，其基础是两个方面：经络系统的作用和艾火的作用。现代艾灸机理研究主要涉及艾灸及其燃烧产物的热效应、辐射效应和药理作用。实验结果表明，艾灸热刺激影响皮肤浅层和深层组织，艾灸的温热效应与温感受体或/和多通道感受器密切相关。燃烧艾条辐射光谱范围为0.8~5.6 μm，峰值位于1.5 μm附近，位于近红外区域。三种间接艾灸的红外光谱和穴位的统一光谱具有惊人的一致性；它们的辐射峰值都在10 μm附近。艾叶和艾烟中已鉴定出许多成分，它们具有多种生物活性，被认为参与了艾灸的综合作用。虽然已经开展了大量的研究工作，并取得了一定的进展，但离充分认识艾灸的作用机理还有很大的距离。
The moxibustion has a dual effect of tonification and purgation in TCM theories, which are based on two aspects: the actions of the meridian system and the roles of moxa and fire. Modern research works of the moxibustion mechanism mainly relate to the thermal effects, radiation effects, and pharmacological actions of moxa and its combustion products. Experimental results showed that moxibustion thermal stimulation affects both shallow and deep tissues of the skin, and the warm-heat effects of moxibustion have a close relation to the warm receptors or/and the polymodal receptor. The burning moxa radiation spectrum ranges from 0.8 to 5.6 μm; peak is nearby 1.5 μm, lying within the near infrared portion. There is an amazing consistency in the infrared spectrums of three types of indirect moxibustion and the unified spectrum of acupoints; all have their peaks of radiation near 10 μm. Lots of ingredients had been identified from mugwort leaves and moxa smoke, which have a variety of biological activities; they were considered to participate in the comprehensive effects of moxibustion. Although lots of research works have been carried out and made some progress, there is still a great distance from fully understanding the mechanism of moxibustion.
