Moxibustion Treatment: What It Can Do For You

Moxibustion Treatment: What It Can Do For You

There is a resurgence of interest in acupuncture due to the increased health benefits it offers.

I was one of those who are weary to try out this Chinese method that is said to improve the human body.

I was freed from that pathetic fallacy when I first received a Moxibustion treatment from Indulge Skin & Body Lab, a wellness salon in Singapore. Moxibustion is one practice utilised at Indulge.

What is a Moxibustion Treatment?

The Moxa is placed and burned on the skin.

It often leaves a scar as a result.

In most cases, patients experience burns and pain in the process, leaving this type of practice out of favour.

Here at Indulge Skin & Body Lab, the use a moxa stick or box for the treatment.

As the herb is burned, I felt the heat spreading across the area of my body being treated.

Who Needs It?

I sought for a Moxibustion treatment to relieve my body pain.

But, as I learned, besides treating an infected area, Moxa, like all forms of acupuncture, is designed to bring the body back to balance.
