More than one treatment is helpful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cdde64c870287000128c607/1558250660831-FJD9REY9FSPQBCOH0KN8/mariana-medvedeva-379662-unsplash.jpg Therapies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cdde64c870287000128c607/1666460759041-AG9CYN244UR2BVWE5L40/unsplash-image-QgcdtM9rA5s.jpg Therapies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cdde64c870287000128c607/1558246214758-C6R0HSOT82G6B9EMSOYF/image-asset.jpeg Therapies - MOXA Moxibustion is the term for the burning of MOXA. It is derived from the Japanese word for the herb mugwort, “mogusa,” and the Latin word for burning, “bustion.” The purpose of burning moxa on points or along channels is to warm, build qi and blood and yang, circulate, and dispel dampness. Moxibustion is very good for treating deficient and cold conditions, as it helps add qi and blood to the body and is warming. Acupuncture typically is understood to help bring balance to the body, but does not supplement the body like moxa does. Moxa is aged mugwort that is dried and ground up into a fine and fluffy product, referred to as “moxa wool.” It is very light and typically is a green, gold or brown in color. This product can be made into sticks or poles with paper surrounding it and used over the skin to warm points and channels. Moxa is also made into small cones or rice shaped and sized grains and used directly on the skin on particular acupuncture points. Moxa can also be burned atop needles, either shaped into balls and stuck on top and burned, or tiny sticks of moxa can be burned on top of the needle. While many say that moxa has a pleasant smell, many others complain that the smell is similar to marijuana. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cdde64c870287000128c607/1666462590612-6FIS7Q1W00IIHA6P7JPT/unsplash-image-Pdea8oxLHkU.jpg Therapies - CuPPING Cupping involves placing small cups on troubled areas of the body. This creates suction pulling on the tissue. The goal is to help relax muscles and tissues, relieve pain, and aid in the body's natural healing processes. According to traditional Chinese medicine, cupping opens skins pores and stimulates blood flow. Cupping is thought to help balance the flow of energy called the qi https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cdde64c870287000128c607/1666460846216-N9CO6QCX6RIO2XLNPVSR/unsplash-image-cM1aU42FnRg.jpg Therapies - Injection therapies IM and SC injection therapies B12 given IM, often used for those who have difficulty with B12 absorption or deficiency.
