Moxibustion is another legendary facet of Traditional Chinese Medicine, right up there with herbs, acupuncture, cupping, and massage. Most commonly, moxibustion is used to warm and tonify yang in the body by burning dry moxa leaf (mugwort) on or near the body. This therapeutic modality can be administered in an acupuncture clinic or at home with the supervision of a licensed doctor of oriental medicine. Moxibustion is most commonly used to relieve muscular & joint pain, menstrual cramping, digestive constipation, breech pregnancy, and boost immunity in cold & flu season.
