Moxibustion

Warms the meridians, dispels cold and strengthens yang — for cold and deficiency patterns and long-term care of those who feel the cold.

THERAPY

In detail

The warmth of burning moxa (mugwort) on the points warms the meridians, dispels cold, moves qi and strengthens yang. A moxa stick, moxa on a buffer or warm-needle moxibustion is chosen for the pattern and the constitution.

For cold and deficiency patterns — feeling the cold, cold period pain, chronic diarrhoea, cold aching joints — and long-term care after illness or childbirth; often together with acupuncture.

  • It should feel warm, never burning
  • Avoided in pregnancy and some heat patterns — the practitioner checks first

Book by phone

Phone follow-ups only. Follow-ups are usually in the clinic, but for some existing patients and conditions the practitioner can follow up by phone.

We do not offer video consultations.

The first visit must be in person: it includes a full examination — tongue, pulse and clinical checks — which cannot be done remotely.
