Because of its special characteristics, Shenque acupoint plays a pivotal role in the operation of human meridians and qi, and moxibustion at the Shenque acupoint is a good prescription for treating all diseases and strengthening the body. In this paper, a review of the research published in recent years on the application of moxibustion at the Shenque acupoint in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) was carried out, and the authors found that supplementing moxibustion at the Shenque acupoint with conventional Western medical treatment, regardless of whether it is a single point of moxibustion at the Shenque acupoint, with multiple points of moxibustion therapy, or combined with other therapies, has achieved significant results in relieving the clinical symptoms of patients with CHF, improving cardiac function, and improving quality of life. Therefore, the Shenque acupoint has an important position in the selection of moxibustion points for patients with CHF, is easy to locate and convenient to operate, and is worth being widely used in the clinic. However, the related mechanism research has not yet been deepened and focused, and the clinical study still lacks a strict methodological design
therefore, future research prospects are far from reaching.
