The cooler fall months are approaching! Did you know that you can use moxibustion to boost your immune system?
Watch this video as we show you how to practice DIY moxibustion at home, using a charcoal moxa stick over the point: Stomach-36 (ST-36). This point is excellent for boosting the immune system.
I like to do this at night, in the fall and wintertime when I’m watching TV! Do you incorporate self-care practices into your downtime?
⚠ If you have any sort of neuropathy (or lack of feeling), use your other hand to feel the surface of the skin to ensure that you don't burn yourself. As long as you keep the moxa stick about a half an inch away from the surface of your skin, there's very little risk of burning yourself. Go back and watch our video from earlier this month for more about moxibustion!
