Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a specialised branch of Traditional East Asian medicine involving the strategic application of heat to the body. It is believed to be older than the practice of acupuncture and is used around the world in public hospitals and private clinics to treat a staggering variety of common health conditions. In many cases moxibustion works very well as a stand-alone treatment but can also easily be incorporated into conventional and complimentary health care programs.

Check out the video gallery below for some examples of the type of moxibustion used at the Australian Acupuncture Centre, Geelong.
