Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxibustion with Ai Zhu cones is traditionally applied at points such as those on the face and along meridians to encourage warmth, relaxation, and the smooth flow of qi and blood. Practitioners traditionally light a cone on a holder or on ginger or salt barriers, moving it away once warmth is felt. Facial moxa is a customary part of beauty and wellness routines in Chinese herbal tradition.
