Warming Needles



Warming Needles is a Japanese technique that incorporates high quality moxa wool in smaller amounts to warm the meridians.
The moxa wool is placed on the handle of the needle after it has been inserted into the acupuncture point.
The moxa is burned on the handle or top of the needle and the warmth and therapeutic properties are transferred to the meridians promoting the free flow of Qi and blood.
This is very relaxing and nurturing, and is used in the treatment of painful joints
caused by cold, and numbness with cold sensation and paralysis.
