Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxa wool has long been the core material of moxibustion, where ignited moxa warms meridians and is traditionally associated with supporting circulation and dispelling cold and dampness. Practitioners roll it into sticks for point moxibustion, press it into cones for direct or indirect methods, and pair it with fresh ginger or salt layers. Five-year aged moxa is traditionally preferred for its softer texture and gentler burn.
