What is Moxibustion, and How Does it Work?

Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy that involves burning a herb called mugwort (moxa) close to the skin to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi (energy) in the body. The heat from the moxa stimulates acupuncture points, improving circulation and promoting healing.

This therapy is often used in conjunction with acupuncture to enhance its effectiveness but can be used on its own to treat a variety of health conditions. Moxibustion is known for its ability to:

  • Alleviate pain and discomfort

  • Boost the immune system

  • Improve digestion and metabolism

  • Reduce stress and anxiety

  • Support overall well-being and energy balance

Discover the Benefits of Moxibustion

Moxibustion offers many benefits that can significantly enhance your health and wellness. Some of the key benefits include:

  • Stress Reduction: Moxibustion's warming effect soothes the nervous system, helping to calm the mind and reduce stress levels.

What People Are Saying

For 2 years I had shoulder pain 24/7. Tried TCM and several cortisone injections and had some temporary relief. Decided to try Japanese acupuncture. I met Zach and had 7 treatments over five weeks and I`m virtually pain free. The Japanese technique is painless, relaxing and very effective. Highly recommended.

— CHLOEE

I appreciated my session with Zach as he took the time to understand what my body has been going through and immediately created a treatment that helped immediately! I also really appreciated his energy, attitude towards sharing his knowledge and checking in with me as he did the treatment. Highly recommend Zach!

— MELISSA

I have had a lot of experience with acupuncture before but it was my first time trying the Japanese style with Zach this week. It was really interesting how he used abdominal diagnosis and targeted my nervous system for digestive issues. I felt very understood when he could tell that my bloating was mainly stress-induced. Most importantly, my symptoms got immediate relief.
