The Healing Power of Moxibustion Therapy
Jul 28, 2014
Moxibustions is a warm therapy using moxa made from dried mugwort (Artimisia argyi) and plays a very important role in the traditional medical systems of Asian cultures including China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and Mongolia. Historians agree that moxibustion has been performed for thousands of years, its history believed to be longer than that of acupuncture. After studies performed by researchers from different countries, World Health Organization(WHO) recognized that moxibustion aids in the increase of red and white blood cell counts as well.
Studies have shown that moxibustion can help:
•activate immune functions and increase the red and white blood cell counts
•enhance lymphocyte and other natural killer cell activities
•heal wounded tissue and revive organs which have lost their capacity to function optimally
•lower blood pressure, reduce blood viscosity, and dilate various vessels
How Moxa Therapy is Applied:
Moxibustion therapy has developed over years and continues to develop today. Moxibustion is currently available in many different forms to fit the diverse needs of patients. The most widely-used method is indirect moxisbustion therapy where moxa is burnt around the skin without touching it. You can easily find various devices and moxa cones for simple and easy indirect moxibustion therapy.
