Warming therapy for cold, achy, depleted areas.
Moxibustion warms specific points using gentle heat from burning mugwort (moxa) held near the skin. The warmth is soothing, and it’s a traditional choice for conditions that feel worse in the cold.
You can take it as an add-on to an acupuncture or massage session.
TCM distinguishes patterns of “cold” and “deficiency,” and moxibustion adds warmth that’s thought to dispel cold, support the circulation of vital substances, and nourish qi. Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice using warmth from mugwort near selected points.
Your practitioner can explain how moxibustion is used in a TCM session.
After moxibustion, mild warmth or light redness at the site is normal and settles quickly. Although done with utmost care, minor blisters may occasionally form and is a normal reaction. They generally dissipate without treatment and should be left alone to heal. Let us know if you notice any burns, blisters, or skin irritation.

Give the treated area a few minutes to cool before covering it up warmly. Drink water afterward and avoid direct cold exposure - like air-conditioning drafts - on the area for the rest of the day.
