MOXIBUSTION AND ACUPUNCTURE: DEEPENING THE HEALING PROCESS
In our clinic, we often pair moxibustion with Acupuncture to enhance healing, improve circulation, and bring warmth and vitality to the body. This combination draws from Traditional Chinese Medicine’s deep understanding of energy, balance, and natural rhythms.
WHAT IS MOXIBUSTION?
Moxibustion is a therapeutic technique that involves the burning of dried mugwort (Artemisia) near specific acupuncture points. This gentle warmth penetrates deeply into the body, stimulating circulation and supporting the smooth flow of Qi—the body’s vital energy.
WHY COMBINE MOXIBUSTION AND ACUPUNCTURE?
When used alongside Acupuncture, moxibustion enhances the treatment by:
• Warming and nourishing the meridians
• Dispersing cold and dampness, which can contribute to pain or sluggish energy
• Boosting immune function and resilience
• Relieving pain and tension by improving circulation
​
This gentle heat works in harmony with Acupuncture needles, amplifying their effect and encouraging a deeper level of balance and relaxation.
WHO CAN BENEFIT?
Moxibustion is especially helpful for conditions such as:
• Chronic fatigue
• Cold hands and feet
• Digestive issues
• Menstrual cramps
• Joint pain or stiffness
• Weakened immunity
