Self-Paced Course

Moxibustion is an herbal heat therapy that has been co-mingled with acupuncture since at least 1600 B.C.E. The powerful healing effects of warming specific points on the body by burning Artemisia leaves to can achieve impressive results. Over the centuries, inspired practitioners have developed a plethora of creative ways to employ this technique in different scenarios. In the first section of this class, I will share some of the history and modern research surrounding moxibustion. The following 3 sections will demonstrate and explain 15+ unique moxibustion techniques with discussion of their qualitative differences. This is an advanced technique class intended for practitioners who already have a framework for diagnosis and selecting points for treatment. If you are still a beginner, I suggest pairing this class with independent study in acupressure or my Antique Points class that I offer periodically.
