Your Q&A on Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy that involves burning dried mugwort (moxa) near specific acupuncture points to stimulate healing, improve circulation, and balance the body’s energy (Qi). It’s commonly used to relieve pain, improve digestion, and boost overall wellness.

Moxibustion is known for its many therapeutic benefits, including:

  • Relieving joint and muscle pain
  • Improving digestion and reducing bloating
  • Enhancing immunity
  • Balancing the body’s energy
  • Supporting fertility and menstrual health

Yes, follow these safety tips for moxibustion:

  • Always keep the moxa at a safe distance from your skin to avoid burns.
  • Use a moxa holder or device for better control, Check out Taiwanese Smokeless Moxa Roll and Holde Set.
  • Perform moxibustion in a well-ventilated area.
  • Do not leave burning moxa unattended.
  • Avoid moxibustion if you have a fever, open wounds, or if you’re pregnant (unless advised by a practitioner).

Smokeless moxa is made by compressing mugwort powder into a charcoal-like form, which burns cleaner with minimal smoke and odor. Traditional moxa uses raw mugwort and produces a stronger smell and more smoke. Smokeless moxa is ideal for indoor use, while traditional moxa is preferred for its classic aroma and warmth.

moxibustion is often used in TCM to improve circulation, regulate menstrual cycles, and support fertility. Acupoints such as CV4 (Guanyuan) and ST36 (Zusanli) are commonly targeted during moxibustion for these benefits. Always consult a TCM practitioner for personalized advice.

Store moxa products in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep them in a sealed container to maintain their quality and prevent accidental ignition.

  • Taiwanese Smokeless Moxa Sticks & Roll Set: Light one end of the stick or roll until it glows red, and hover it 2–3 cm above the skin. Move in a circular or sweeping motion for even heat distribution.
  • Alta Traditional Moxa Rolls: Light the roll and position it above the treatment area for classic indirect moxibustion. Always ensure proper ventilation.
  • MyAcu Moxa TopCones: Place the cone over the tip of an acupuncture needle for targeted warm needling therapy.
