At Central New Jersey Acupuncture & Wellness, moxibustion is used to warm the body, stimulate circulation, and restore energy balance. This traditional therapy involves burning a specially prepared herb (moxa) near the skin to activate acupuncture points without direct contact.

Conditions Moxibustion May Help With:

  • Cold hands and feet

  • Fatigue and low energy

  • Menstrual cramps and irregular cycles

  • Joint pain and stiffness

  • Digestive issues and poor immunity

How It Works:

Moxibustion stimulates key acupuncture points by warming them, which enhances blood flow and Qi movement. The heat from the burning moxa penetrates deeply into the body to:

  • Open meridians and relieve stagnation

  • Boost immune function

  • Improve energy and vitality

  • Reduce inflammation and promote circulation

🌿Types of Moxibustion We Use:

  • Indirect Moxa (Stick or Cone): Safely held close to the skin, allowing warmth to penetrate without burning.

  • Needle-top Moxa: A small amount of moxa is placed on top of an acupuncture needle for deeper stimulation.

  • Herbal Patches: For gentle at-home continuation of treatment.

Who Can Benefit:

Moxibustion is especially effective for people who feel cold easily, have poor circulation, experience chronic fatigue, or seek natural hormone support. It’s safe and gentle for adults of all ages.
