Moxibustion Therapy is a traditional Chinese medicine technique
that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb, to facilitate
healing. Moxibustion has been used throughout Asia for thousands of years; in
fact, the actual Chinese character for acupuncture, translated literally, means
"acupuncture-moxibustion." The functions of moxibustion are: warming
meridians and removing cold evils. Guide the blood flow by raising or lowering
the Qi energy. Bring back the yang energy, therefore, increasing blood
circulation.
