ZhongYanMoxa Sticks1.8 cm, 20 cm, Smoke

ZhongYan moxa sticks are rolled from dried mugwort for traditional moxibustion. The smouldering stick releases steady, easily controlled heat, which in TCM is applied in a targeted way above acupuncture points and tense areas of the body. At 20 cm long and 1.8 cm in diameter, the sticks sit comfortably in the hand.

These moxa sticks are aimed at TCM therapists and acupuncturists as well as experienced users who carry out heat applications at home. The heat intensity is regulated simply by the distance to the skin.

• Made from dried mugwort (Artemisia), the classic moxa herb in TCM
• 10 moxa sticks per pack
• Handy format: 20 cm long, 1.8 cm in diameter
• Even burn for a constant release of heat
• Classic smoking version with the typical herbal moxa aroma
• Heat can be dosed continuously via the distance to the skin

For application, the manufacturer recommends holding the glowing tip around 3 to 4 cm above the skin until a pleasant warmth is felt; sessions of 15 to 20 minutes are common. As this version produces smoke, the room should be well ventilated. After the treatment, the stick is extinguished safely, for example in sand or a moxa extinguisher.
