Moxibustion
Moxibustion, or moxa, is the process of burning an herb called Mugwort over certain acupuncture points or general areas of the body. Methods include burning a stick of moxa, placing moxa on top of a needle or placed directly over an acupuncture point- don’t worry, you will not be burned! Moxa is intensely warming and has also been shown to raise white blood cell counts in the body, making it great for the immune system.
