Moxibustion

With the moxibustion, certain acupuncture points or the whole skin zones will be warmed up through the burning of mugwort (Folium Artemisiae Vulgaris or Ai Ye). Small balls or cigar-like stalks (Moxa) will be held over every acupoint or skin areas which should be stimulated with warmth.

The moxibustion has toning effects on the treated skin areas, by promoting blood flow and detoxification.
