Moxibustion

Moxibustion refers to the burning of moxa, prepared from mugwort leaves. It is most commonly used in addition to Acupuncture.

Moxa is placed either directly on the skin or held just above it, over specific acupoints or meridians. The herb is lit and heat permeates the skin and affects the blood flow and warms the area being treated.
Some examples of uses is: Immune system strengthening, chronic low energy, chronic fatigue, cold hands/feet, during pregnancy to turn a baby in breech position, for fertility, and more.
