Moxibustion is a therapeutic method that uses the heat generated by burning the herb mugwort 艾叶 (Artemisia vulgaris) to stimulate acupuncture points. According to the theory of traditional medicine, heat is usually applied to acupuncture points during moxibustion to cure diseases by regulating the function of meridians and visceral organs. The heat stimulates acupuncture points, which increases qi circulation and relieves qi stagnation, leading to an improved disease state.
