Moxibustion
Moxa or dried mugwort, is part of the sage family of plants. The dried and powdered
form is used in many conditions where it can be burnt on the needle, placed in a box
resting on the body, or in a roll held above certain acupuncture points. It generates
heat and warmth and has a therapeutic effect especially where a condition is
diagnosed as 'cold'. It is very good for many painful conditions and augments the
acupuncture treatment.
