WHAT IS MOXIBUSTION?

Moxabustion using Indirect Heat for Release

Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine heat therapy that uses the herb mugwort (i.e., ‘moxa’) which is rolled into a tube-like shape, lit and held over the body to warm specific regions of the body in order to promote the flow of qi and blood in the important channels or meridians in the  body.

Combined with traditional acupuncture, moxibustion has been found to be very helpful in the treatment of digestive disorders, arthritis, gynecological disorders, internal bleeding, turning breech babies before term, and many other conditions.
