It is often used in conjunction with acupuncture.\u003cbr\u003eDuring moxibustion therapy, a small quantity of moxa is burned near or on acupuncture points or meridians (energy pathways) in the body. The herb is then ignited and burnt at a low temperature to produce a penetrating fire. It is believed that burning moxa promotes healing and balance by increasing the circulation of qi (vital energy) and blood throughout the body.\u003cbr\u003eIn TCM, moxibustion therapy is used to alleviate pain, arthritis, digestive issues, menstrual irregularities, and even certain pulmonary diseases. It is also used to enhance general health and strengthen the immune system.\u003cbr\u003eDirect moxibustion is performed by burning a moxa stick or cone over the affected area, whereas indirect moxibustion is performed by burning a moxa cone over the affected area.\u003cbr\u003eEven though moxibustion therapy has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine and remains popular among modern practitioners, questions persist regarding its efficacy and safety.\u003cbr\u003eBefore beginning treatment, it is advised to consult a medical professional or licensed acupuncturist who is familiar with moxibustion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victory Dennis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798865231301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.17d","brand":"Victory Dennis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447374950655,"sku":"9798865231301","price":9.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_be058d8a-d271-477c-9847-7c7d5dd2f677.jpg?v=1777230684","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moxibustion-therapy-handbook-victory-dennis-9798865231301","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
