Acupuncture and Moxibustion: An Introduction
Acupuncture and moxibustion are two complementary techniques of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Acupuncture uses ultra-fine sterile needles placed on specific points to support the body's natural balance, while moxibustion applies gentle heat from moxa near chosen points to encourage warmth, circulation, and deep relaxation.
How Both Techniques Work Together
In a typical session, the specialist evaluates your condition and selects the appropriate points. The fine needles are inserted gently and painlessly, while moxa heat is applied close to the skin. This combined approach supports muscular relief, improved local circulation, and a calming, restorative state.
What to Expect During a Session
- Assessment first: every session begins with a professional evaluation of your case.
- Single-use needles: sterile, disposable needles are opened in front of you.
- Comfortable heat: moxa warmth is adjusted to your comfort level.
- Relaxed setting: private suites designed for calm and hygiene.
After Your Session
It is normal to feel deeply relaxed after treatment. We recommend drinking water, resting for the remainder of the day, and avoiding intense physical activity. Your specialist provides personalised aftercare guidance before you leave.
