💌 Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter where I share exclusive content I don't share anywhere else.Moxibustion is one of the oldest—and most powerful—tools in Chinese medicine, yet it’s often overlooked in modern practice. In this episode, I break down how moxa therapy works, when to use it, and why it may have even predated acupuncture in early Chinese medical history.From warming the meridians and strengthening Yang to treating menstrual pain and supporting breech presentation, this episode blends classical theory with practical, clinic-ready protocols—plus essential safety guidelines every practitioner needs to know.In this episode, you’ll learn: • What moxibustion is, its ancient origins, and why it’s essential in TCM • The different types of moxa and techniques (cones, sticks, ginger, salt, garlic, and more) • How to treat dysmenorrhea patterns (cold, qi stagnation, yang deficiency, cold-damp) and when to use BL67 for breech • Critical safety rules, ventilation tips, and pregnancy precautionsIf you want to confidently integrate moxa into your treatments and deepen your understanding of this powerful therapy, this episode is a must-listen 💜➡️ Visit the show notes for all the links mentioned in this episode!☯️ More AcuPro Episodes you'll love:How Cupping Therapy Can Support Your Acupuncture PatientsAcupuncture & TCM for Painful MensesHow Foot Reflexology is the Perfect Addition to Your Acupuncture Practice!Also, if you haven’t done so already, follow the podcast.
