Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy that uses the gentle warmth of burning moxa, a dried preparation of the mugwort plant, to warm and stimulate specific areas or acupuncture points on the body. Practiced for centuries, it is traditionally used to support the flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood while promoting warmth, relaxation, and balance.

During a moxibustion session, a trained practitioner carefully holds or applies moxa near selected points, creating a soothing and penetrating warmth without directly burning the skin. The therapy is traditionally used to help ease muscle tension and stiffness, promote a sense of relaxation, and support overall wellbeing. It may also be used alongside acupuncture and other TCM therapies as part of a personalized wellness approach.
