Moxibustion


Ancient Heat Therapy for Harmonizing Qi and Enhancing Vitality

Moxibustion is a time-honored healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), utilizing the therapeutic warmth of the mugwort herb (Artemisia vulgaris) to stimulate the body’s energy pathways, known as meridians. By gently burning moxa (dried mugwort) near or on specific acupuncture points, this technique aims to invigorate the flow of Qi (vital energy), dispel cold and dampness, and restore balance within the body’s systems.
