Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that uses the therapeutic heat from burning dried mugwort, also known as “moxa,” to stimulate specific acupuncture points on the body. The process involves warming these points to improve circulation, promote healing, and strengthen the body’s natural energy, or Qi. Depending on the treatment plan, moxa can be applied directly to the skin or indirectly, using tools like a moxa stick or a barrier of herbs to protect the skin while delivering its soothing warmth.
This therapy is often used to alleviate pain, boost immunity, and address conditions such as digestive issues, joint stiffness, and menstrual discomfort. It is also known for its ability to enhance general well-being and balance the body’s energy. At our clinic, we integrate moxibustion into acupuncture treatments to optimize results and provide a deeply relaxing and restorative experience for our patients. Whether you’re seeking relief from a specific condition or looking to enhance your overall health, moxibustion is a gentle yet powerful therapy to support your journey.

Acupuncture is extremely safe. It is an all-natural, drug-free therapy, yielding no side effects just feelings of relaxation and well-being. There is little danger of infection from acupuncture needles because they are sterile, used once, and then discarded.
