Moxa/Moxibustion 灸

Moxibustion (灸, jiǔ ) therapy - is a centuries old healing healing technique from Traditional Chinese Medicine. Energy points (acupuncture points), energy channels (meridians), reflex points or tense areas of the body are treated by warming.

The treatments can be billed under Methode 185 oder 102 mit einer supplemental health insurance. Please inquire with your health insurance provider to see if your benefits include this service.

Action

To begin the warming treatment Moxa (mugwort herb) is heated to a glow. In the case of indirect heating, garlic, ginger or table salt can also be used.

Effect

The long-lasting infrared heat penetrates deep into the tissue. This thermal stimulation activates the body's self-healing powers and triggers a reflex mechanism which adjusts the body’s organs and tissues. There is also evidence of a significant improvement in immune function.
