Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxibustion with aged mugwort cones is traditionally applied to warm the meridians, dispel cold, and support circulation and vitality. Cones may be burned directly on the skin by a trained practitioner, placed on ginger or salt barriers, or used in moxa boxes over the abdomen, back, or joints. Aged moxa is traditionally preferred for its gentler, more even burn.
