Discover the ancient art of moxibustion
In moxibustion, small cones made from the herb mugwort are burned near specific acupuncture points on your body. When done correctly, this practice generates heat and stimulates circulation, helping to alleviate pain and reduce inflammation. Here at East London Acupuncture Clinic, we incorporate moxibustion into your personalised treatment plan to enhance your overall health and well-being. Our experienced practitioners have the skills necessary to help you reach, and maintain, optimum levels of physical and mental wellness.
Please note: we require 24 hours notice for cancellations.
The benefits of moxibustion
Pain relief: Moxibustion can help alleviate various types of pain such as muscle stiffness, joint pain and menstrual cramps.
Improved circulation: The heat generated by moxibustion stimulates blood flow, promoting healing and reducing inflammation.
Enhanced immune system: Moxibustion can help strengthen the immune system, making it more resistant to illnesses and infections.
Balanced energy: By targeting specific acupuncture points, moxibustion can help restore balance within the body's energy system, promoting overall well-being.
Complementary therapy: Moxibustion worked well in conjunction with other traditional Chinese medicine treatments such as acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to enhance their effectiveness.
Our moxibustion services
Here at East London Acupuncture Clinic, our skilled and experienced practitioners are dedicated to providing the highest quality moxibustion treatments tailored to your specific needs. We offer free consultations to understand your health concerns and develop personalised treatment plans that incorporate moxibustion to address the root cause of your issues.
Our moxibustion sessions involve the careful placement of moxa near specific acupuncture points on the body. The moxa is then ignited, generating a gentle heat that penetrates the skin and stimulates the underlying acupuncture points. This process helps to improve circulation, reduce pain and boost the immune system.
In addition to moxibustion, our practitioners may also recommend other traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to increase the effectiveness of your treatment plan.
