Our sauna pod has an option with Moxibustion using the organic dry plant of Mugwort.
Moxibustion, also known as
moxa treatment, is a traditional medical practice that originated in China and thence spread to Japan and other Asian countries.
Moxibustion is performed by burning small cones of dried leaves on specific designated points of the body. These are generally the same points as those used in acupuncture.
Moxa is usually made from the dried leafy material of Chinese mugwort (Artemesia argyi or A.vlugaris), but it can be made of other substances as well.
Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy in which dried plant materials called "moxa" are burned on or very near the surface of the skin. The intention is to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi in the body and dispel certain pathogenic influences.
“Moxibustion is usually good for cases where the disease is brought on by cold pathogens or a certain qi/yang deficiency,” Dr. Nguyen says. This includes:
· Joint pain
· Indigestion
· Organ prolapse
· Gastrointestinal issues
· Menstrual cramps
· Infertility
