Mugwort Moxa Flake Refill Pad for Moxibustion Heat Compress and Herbal Salt Pack

Mugwort moxa flakes, known in TCM as Ai Rong (艾绒), from Artemisia argyi, are a processed herbal product used as a refill insert for moxibustion pads, herbal salt packs, and electric heat compress wraps. In TCM theory, mugwort is warm in nature, bitter and pungent in flavor, and enters the liver, spleen, and kidney channels. Traditionally associated with warming the channels and supporting comfortable external application, these flakes are intended for use inside fabric pads or heat packs, not for direct ingestion.
