What is moxibustion used for?
In traditional Chinese medicine, moxibustion is used on people who have a cold or stagnant condition. The burning of moxa is believed to expel cold and warm the meridians, which leads to smoother flow of blood and qi. In Western medicine, moxibustion has successfully been used to turn breech babies into a normal head-down position prior to childbirth. A landmark study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1998 found that up to 75% of women suffering from breech presentations before childbirth had fetuses that rotated to the normal position after receiving moxibustion at an acupuncture point on the Bladder meridian. Other studies have shown that moxibustion increases the movement of the fetus in pregnant women, and may reduce the symptoms of menstrual cramps when used in conjunction with traditional acupuncture. Although moxibustion has been safely used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries, it is not for everyone. Because it is used specifically for patients suffering from cold or stagnant constitutions, it should not be used on anyone diagnosed with too much heat. Burning moxa also produces a great deal of smoke and a pungent odor. Patients with respiratory problems may request that their practitioner use smokeless moxa sticks as an alternative.
DIRECTIONS: In indirect moxibustion, you light one end of the moxa stick, roughly the shape and size of a cigar, and hold it close to the area being treated for several minutes until the area turns red.
WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED WITH YOUR MOXI TREATMENT, YOU NEED TO SNUFF THE MOXI STICK OUT IN A WAY THAT MAY BE UNUSUAL IF YOU HAVE NEVER USED MOXI STICK IN THE PAST. IT WILL NOT GO OUT BY ITSELF. LIGHTLY DIP YOUR MOXI STICK IN SOME WATER TO MAKE SURE IT IS OUT - WATCH FOR IT TO STOP SMOKING (IF YOU HAVE THE CLASSIC, SMOKING STYLE MOXI) TO MAKE SURE IT HAS STOPPED BURNING.
Thanks very much for your business . . . I appreciate it!
