Guidelines for using Moxa.

Moxa is a plant (Artemisia argyi Folium) that is used as a heat source to stimulate acupuncture points. Although acupuncture is better known in the West, moxibustion has also been used in traditional treatments for over 2000 years in China and is in fact the second part of the name for acupuncture in the Chinese language (zhen jiu, literally “needle moxa”).

• A glass screw-top jar to extinguish the moxa when the treatment is finished. Read the rest of this entry »
