Okyu

Okyu, direct moxibustion.

Using a high grade of moxa punk in a tiny size. Moxa is processed specifically to be used for this method.

The pure moxa is processed in a way that only the moxa “wool” remains, with most of the plant fiber and particles either sieved or washed out. This allows for a very soft, malleable moxa wool that can easily be molded into shape.

It burns with less intensity, thereby allowing for greater control over the amount of heat applied to the acupoints.

Moxa will be put on the reactive acupoints and be lighted gently with incense stick.
