MOXIBUSTION

The mugwort is packed into different shapes and burned. We then place the burning mugwort above the acupuncture points and allow the heat to be absorbed. This increases blood flow and helps your body speed up the healing process. Moxibustion is also used as a warming agent for people who are chronically cold. If you suffer from cold hands or feet, moxibustion is the treatment to ask for.
