Large Moxa Stick Ai Tiao 4cm x 20cm Pure Mugwort Moxibustion Roll for Warming Therapy

Large Moxa Stick, known in TCM as Ai Tiao (艾条), is a thick 4cm x 20cm roll made from compressed Nanyang mugwort (Artemisia argyi) leaves. Traditionally used in moxibustion, it is lit and held near the skin to deliver gentle warmth to selected points. In TCM theory, mugwort is warm in nature and associated with warming the channels.
