Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxa wool from aged mugwort leaves is traditionally used for moxibustion, a warming therapy applied to meridian points. It is commonly burned over ginger slices, in moxa boxes, or rolled into sticks and cones. Three-year aging is traditionally preferred to reduce harshness and produce a gentler, more even burn.
