Moxibustion
What is Moxibustion?
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese therapy that uses burning mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) to warm and stimulate specific points on the body. It has multiple therapeutic effects, including **warming the meridians, dispelling cold, promoting blood circulation, resolving stasis, regulating qi and blood, strengthening yang, boosting immunity, and expelling toxins and heat**. It is widely used to treat various diseases and serves as a health-preserving practice. However, it should be performed under professional guidance and is often used as a complementary therapy.

Key Benefits of Moxibustion Therapy
Warm the Meridians and Disperse Cold
Moxibustion generates heat by burning mugwort, which warms the meridians and alleviates symptoms caused by cold pathogens, such as stagnant qi and blood, joint pain, and stiffness. This effect is widely applied in treating arthritis, frozen shoulder, stomach pain, dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), and similar conditions.
Promote Blood Circulation and Resolve Stasis
Moxibustion improves blood flow, reduces blood stasis, and relieves pain caused by poor circulation. It also helps dissolve nodules and masses, making it effective for conditions like scrofula (swollen lymph nodes), mastitis (breast inflammation), and skin ulcers.
Regulate Qi and Blood
By balancing qi and blood flow, moxibustion addresses symptoms like pale complexion, cold hands and feet, and fatigue caused by qi-blood imbalance.
Strengthen Yang and Prevent Collapse
Moxibustion supplements yang energy and treats conditions related to qi deficiency, such as rectal prolapse, abnormal uterine bleeding, leukorrhea (vaginal discharge), enuresis (bedwetting), and uterine prolapse.
Enhance Immunity
Moxibustion regulates the immune system, improving the body’s resistance to illnesses like the common cold. This makes it a valuable tool for preventive healthcare.
Expel Toxins and Clear Heat
Moxibustion helps release heat toxins from the body, treating symptoms such as sore throat, red/swollen eyes, and mouth ulcers.
Precautions
Professional Guidance Required
Moxibustion is not suitable for everyone. Improper use may lead to adverse effects, so it should always be performed under the supervision of a trained practitioner.
Complementary Therapy
While moxibustion offers significant benefits, it is typically used as an adjunct to other treatments. Comprehensive medical care often yields better results for many conditions.
