Smokeless Moxa Sticks Ai Zhu 54 Count Carbonized Moxibustion Rods for Home Warming Care

Smokeless Moxa Sticks, known in TCM as Ai Zhu (艾柱), are compact moxibustion rods made from processed mugwort leaf material (Artemisia argyi). Each carbonized stick is densely pressed with a central hole for secure placement on moxibustion devices. Traditionally associated with warming meridians and supporting circulation in TCM practice, they are intended for external use on comfortable body areas such as shoulders, back, abdomen, and legs. Keep away from eyes and broken skin, and avoid burns during use.

Traditional Uses

In TCM practice, moxibustion with processed mugwort has long been used to warm the meridians, support circulation, and ease sensations of cold or stagnation. Ai Zhu sticks are commonly lit and placed in moxa boxes or handheld devices, then applied near acupuncture points such as Guanyuan, Zusanli, or shoulder and lumbar regions. Traditional routines often favor moxa during cooler seasons or after exposure to damp and cold conditions.
