From the perspective of autonomic nervous system

this paper analyzes the mechanism

current western medicine treatment methods and acupuncture-moxibustion treatment mechanism of gastroesophageal reflux disease（GERD）. It is believed that the main cause of GERD is that the gastric acid goes to the wrong place due to gastrointestinal motility disorder

which belongs to "acid dislocation". At present

western medical treatment cannot effectively target the pathogenesis of the disease

and its effect is limited. Acupuncture-moxibustion could regulate the neuroendocrine immune network to regulate the function of autonomic nerve

restore the power of digestive tract to treat GERD

which is worthy of further research.
