We are now doing Moxa!
What is Moxibustion - Moxibustion is a technique of applying heat to certain points
or locations of the human body. The material used is Artemisia Vulgaris commonly
known as "moxa-wool".
Chapter 73 of classical Chinese text Miraculous Pivot states
"A disease that may not be curable by acupuncture may be curable by
moxibustion", and further, "When a disease fails
to respond to acupuncture and medication, moxibustion is
suggested". Another classical text Precious Prescriptions
states that "If one wants to be healthy, one should often have
moxibustion over the point Zusanli (ST 36)".
Beneficial Effects of Moxibustion
- Warms the meridians and expels cold.
- Promotes the smooth flow of qi and blood.
- Strengthens Yang.
- Prevents diseases and keeps you healthy.
We keep our charges low and many patients may not need moxibustion.
Therefore we charge an additional fee for moxibustion.
Please let Michael or Carole know in advance that you would like to
be treated with Moxa, so that a particular treatment room may be
reserved for you.
Looking forward to seeing you here.
