Moxibustion

What is moxibustion therapy?

Moxa, a tiny, spongy plant, is burned during the moxibustion procedure to promote healing over particular acupuncture points. Moxibustion comes in two flavors: direct and indirect. Indirect moxibustion therapy involves placing a lit moxa stick—roughly the size and shape of a cigar—near the chosen acupuncture point and holding it there for a few minutes until the area turns red.

Who are suitable for moxibustion therapy?

Moxibustion is used to treat a variety of illnesses, including pain, irritable bowel syndrome, asthma, colds, the flu, breech birth, and other ailments. To enhance therapeutic results, moxibustion is frequently combined with acupuncture. Because moxibustion is pain-free, it is appropriate for children and those who are sensitive to needles.

What kind of special treatment features of moxibustion therapy in Sean Family Clinic?

Indirect moxibustion therapy is offered at Sean Family Clinic. The client should not feel any pain, blistering, or scarring, rather a nice warming sensation that penetrates deeply into the skin.
