Moxibusion
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves burning small cones or sticks of dried mugwort (a type of herb) near the skin at specific acupuncture points on the body. It is believed to stimulate the flow of Qi (energy) and blood in the body, promoting healing and relieving pain. Moxibustion is often used in conjunction with acupuncture to treat a variety of conditions such as arthritis, digestive disorders, and menstrual cramps.
