Traditional Uses

In traditional Chinese practice, moxa sticks are lit and held near the skin or placed in a moxibustion box so gentle heat reaches selected points. Moxibustion has long been used alongside acupuncture, and mugwort is traditionally associated with warming the channels and dispelling cold. Common areas include the abdomen, lower back, and limbs, typically for short sessions with attention to comfort and skin safety.
