Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxibustion with aged mugwort has long been used to apply gentle heat to acupuncture points and meridians. Traditionally associated with warming the channels, dispelling cold, and supporting circulation, moxa sticks are commonly applied to areas such as Guanyuan, Zusanli, or the lower back. Aged moxa is preferred because it is considered milder and burns more evenly than fresh material.
