Acupuncture and moxibustion can provide some immediate relief from cold symptoms and help the body expel the pathogen much faster. Acupuncture  points along the lung and large intestine meridians are often used as they activate the immune function in the body. The most important acupuncture point in treating the common cold is Large Intestine 4. This point is located in the web between the thumb and index finger. This point is very effective for this condition, since it suppresses pain and relieves exterior conditions. Patients frequently experience quick relief when the point is needled or massaged.

An effective remedy is miso soup with the white part of spring onion  and fresh ginger. For more severe or advanced cases, there is a full range of therapies, depending on the combination of symptoms. For this condition Chinese doctors often use formulas containing cinnamon twig, ginger root, asarum (which is similar to ginger), kudzu root, and licorice.
