Moxibustion, Cupping and Ear Candle

Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a way of treating certain health conditions through heated herbs. The leaves of the Moxa tree are made into a small cone and placed on (or above) an acupoint, ignited and allowed to slowly smoulder. The warmth of the moxa cone warms the blood on the acupoint and helps to release cold and dampness in the body, found to relieve pain. These centuries old Chinese treatment of moxibustion have been used for turning breech babies into head first position. In china, moxibustion is more often to be used in combination with acupuncture therapy so that the more effective result is achieved.
