Moxibustion – Traditional Chinese Medicine Therapy

Moxibustion is an ancient Chinese medicine therapy that involves the burning of moxa—a cone or stick made from dried mugwort leaves—near or on specific acupuncture points on the body. The purpose of this treatment is to stimulate circulation, warm the meridians, and promote the smooth flow of Qi (vital energy) to support healing and restore balance within the body.

This time-tested technique is commonly used to:

• Relieve pain (especially arthritis, muscle stiffness, and menstrual cramps)

• Boost immune function

• Improve digestion

• Address fatigue and cold-related conditions

Available in various forms such as moxa sticks, cones, and smokeless options, moxibustion is often used alongside acupuncture or as a standalone treatment.

Note: Always use under the guidance of a qualified practitioner.
