Traditional Uses

In traditional Chinese wellness practice, moxibustion involves burning processed mugwort (ai, 艾) near or on the skin to apply gentle warmth. Ceramic moxa jars are traditionally used to hold burning moxa while diffusing heat over areas such as the head, neck, and shoulders. This method is traditionally associated with supporting relaxation and a sense of warmth and circulation. It is an external practice and does not replace professional medical care.
