Do you know about moxibustion? “Moxa,” as we call it, is an amazing form of heat therapy. The herb mugwort is used to dispel cold and circulate qi & blood through the meridians. Moxa is very effective at helping to turn breech babies prior to delivery by increasing the fetal movements of the baby. It can also be used to treat pain and menstrual cramps, increase digestive function & metabolism, and boost immunity… Moxa has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese & folk medicines and we still use it commonly today in combination with acupuncture. 🔥✨🎏
