Moxibustion
is a therapy that involves spraying the herbal extracts of mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) on or near specific acupuncture points or areas of the body directly on the skin, followed by therapetic heat. Unlike traditional moxibustion, moxa spray produces no smoke, making it ideal for people with sensitivities to smoke. Although, stick moxa are also available at this clinic.
It is believed to stimulate circulation, gently turn a breech baby, promote the flow of qi (vital energy), warm the body, strengthen the body's defenses, boost immune function, alleviate pain and the discomfort of feeling "heavy or achiness" due to damp weather, and treat various health conditions.
Moxibustion is complimentary in First Initial Appointment and Follow Up Appointments, if applicable.
