What is Moxibustion?
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy that involves burning dried mugwort (moxa) near specific points on the body to stimulate healing. It is often used alongside acupuncture to enhance the flow of Qi (life energy) and promote overall well-being
How It Works?
Moxa cones are placed directly on the skin and burned until the skin turns red or the patient feels warmth.
Moxa is burned near the skin, often using a barrier like salt, garlic, or an acupuncture needle to transfer heat without direct contact
