Moxibustion |
 |
Moxibustion is another ancient therapy in Traditional Chinese Medicine that is
particularly effective in the treatment of arthritis, asthma, and fatigue. Moxibustion
has the function of warming and clearing the meridians and tonifying the body's energy.
It strengthens the patient's immune and circulatory system. Moxa, the dried leaves of
the common mugwort (artemesia vulgaris) plant, is placed in small balls on the end of
acupuncture needles or it can be made into small cones and burnt on herbal cake or
ginger over the skin. It provides gentle heat and increases the toning effective of the
treatment. It is highly effective to build up a patient's energy reserves and improve sexual function.
