Moxa Stick 1.0×20cm Ai Tiao Moxibustion Bar for Home Warming Therapy

Moxa Stick, known in TCM as Ai Tiao (艾条), is a rolled moxibustion bar made from processed mugwort (Artemisia argyi) leaf floss. This 1.0×20cm stick is designed for indirect moxibustion, a traditional practice in which the burning stick is held near selected points on the body to deliver gentle warmth. In TCM theory, mugwort is considered warm in nature and associated with warming the channels. For external use only; keep away from skin and flammable materials.

Traditional Uses

In traditional Chinese practice, moxa sticks are lit and held a short distance from the skin or placed in a moxibustion device so radiant warmth reaches selected points along the body's channels. Moxibustion has long been paired with acupuncture and is traditionally used during colder seasons or for general warming and relaxation routines. Sessions are typically kept short and comfortable, and the stick is fully extinguished after use.
