Moxibustion is accomplished by applying heat to acupuncture points and meridians through the burning of specially dried and prepared herbs(mugwort),this is a way to increase circulation to a particular area, thereby allowing for increased activity of the body’s natural defenses and healing processes.
Moxibustion is an enormous part of all ancient healing traditions throughout Asia. It is known simply as “moxa”, using moxa made from dried mugwort to warm specific regions and meridian points with the intention of stimulating circulation through the points and inducing a smoother flow of blood and Qi. It can treat conditions associated with the "cold" or "Yang deficiencies" in Chinese Medicine.
Moxibustion is especially effective in the treatment of chronic problems,also used for:
Pain due to injury or arthritis, especially in "cold" patterns where the pain naturally feels better with the application of heat.
Digestive problems and irregular elimination
Gynecological and obstetrical conditions, including breech presentation in late term pregnancy.
Protection against cold and flu strains.
