Focused treatments that warm the channels, move qi, and strengthen the body’s natural defences.
Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy that uses gentle heat from burning mugwort (moxa) to stimulate circulation, dispel cold, and support the body’s healing processes. It is especially effective for chronic pain, digestive weakness, fatigue, and conditions aggravated by cold or stagnation.
What is Moxibustion?
How It Works
Moxibustion involves warming specific acupuncture points or areas of the body using high‑quality moxa. The heat penetrates deeply into the channels, promoting smooth qi flow, nourishing yang, and relieving tension.
Rather than applying intense heat, moxibustion uses a controlled, therapeutic warmth that gently encourages the body to rebalance itself. Treatments may be performed using moxa sticks, loose moxa, or moxa cones, depending on your condition and sensitivity.
