Moxibustion

Moxibustion involves burning a cone or stick of Moxa, made of ground mugwort leaves on or near the body’s acupuncture points or meridians. The resulting aroma and heat stimulate the flow of blood and Qi 气 to the treated area. As a result it can help with a range of health issues, such as chronic pain, digestive disorder or infertility.

Treatment Method

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves burning dried mugwort (moxa) near specific acupuncture points on the body. Moxa’s warmth boosts blood flow, qi flow, and the body’s natural healing.

Moxa sticks or cones are burned directly on the skin (indirect moxibustion) or a short distance away to gently heat it. This safe, non-invasive technique is commonly paired with acupuncture for better outcomes.

I’ve been seeing her for acupuncture to help with stubborn sinus problems and pressure headaches. She is incredibly skilled, professional, and attentive. Li is wonderful—I'm so glad I found her!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a really positive experience at this acupuncture clinic. I visited previously for my shoulder pain and was very happy with the overall experience, so I didn’t hesitate to bring my dad in when he was having problems with his ankle. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and well looked after. The service was professional, friendly, and reassuring, and everything was explained clearly throughout the process.

I would highly recommend this acupuncture clinic to anyone looking for a friendly and professional service. Thank you for making both of our experiences so positive!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Li is an extremely talented practitioner and a lovely person. I have been attending her on and off for three years for a number of issues and I have always found that her sessions make a huge difference. She is incredibly knowledgeable and really takes the time to talk about everything that’s going on and to explain what she thinks is happening and why. I have recommended Li to all my friends and have no doubt she’s the best acupuncturist around.
