If you constantly feel cold, run down, or find your digestion sluggish no matter what you eat, it may be a sign of digestive and hormonal imbalance that Traditional Chinese Medicine has addressed for centuries through moxibustion, a gentle and deeply restorative heat therapy.
Moxibustion involves burning dried mugwort near specific acupuncture points to generate deep, penetrating warmth, boosting circulation, supporting the immune system, and helping the body find balance — often used alongside acupuncture for a fuller treatment effect.
What the Research Says
A systematic review and meta-analysis found that moxibustion was more effective than other treatments for pain relief in knee osteoarthritis, with a lower incidence of adverse events, though the authors noted that further high-level evidence is warranted.
