Overview

This trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of moxibustion plus cupping in the convalescence of COVID-19.

Description

Moxibustion plus cupping may be effective and safe for convalescent patients with COVID-19, but evidence is limited. The randomized clinical trial may help to provide evidence-based factors for improving the patients' symptoms in the convalescence of COVID-19.
