Moxa is applying heat into the body to promote the healing process. Traditionally, the Chinese uses the leaf of a plant called Mugwort to make moxa cones. Moxa is a very popular technique in China to strengthen the physical body and maintain healthy.

Moxa treatment in general includes two types of techniques. One is called “indirect moxa” and another “direct moxa”.

Both techniques of moxa can tonify qi and yang and warm the body to expel cold pathogens. Many Chinese are doing moxa regularly to strengthen their immune systems and maintain healthy.
