Moxa material is usually compressed into a stick that looks like a cigar. The moxa stick is then lit and allowed to smoulder, which produces a unique form of penetrating heat. The stick is then held over certain points on the body. Either the material is placed on the skin, or the stick is held over the skin until the area reddens and becomes suffused with warmth.

Our therapy

Our experts use moxibustion to relieve pain due to injury or arthritis. Moxibustion is mainly used in cold patterns where the pain naturally feels better after applying the therapy. We often use moxibustion in the same session, along with other therapies, as a treatment strategy. When used as a combination, it helps other therapies increase their effectiveness.
