Moxabustion

Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy that predates acupuncture by 500 years. This treatment uses a therapeutic burning agent called "Moxa" commonly known as Mugwort (Artemisia Vulgaris) that is burned on or very near the skin's surface. The intention is to "warm" and invigorate the flow of Qi in the body, boost immunity, increase circulation, and dispel certain pathogenic influences.
