Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) form of heat therapy involving the placing and controlled burning a dried herb (Moxa) on acupuncture points on your body. Moxa can be combusted and suspended above the body, used in conjunction with acupuncture needles or burned directly on the surface of a patient’s skin. Prior to being lit, the Moxa is shaped into small mounds and methodically along energetic pathways. The burning Moxa is always removed before embers contact the skin, ensuring there is no risk of tissue injury.
Conditions that may benefit from Moxa Treatment
