These Chinese bamboo boxes are ideal for easy and reliable moxibustion therapy. They are specifically designed for using moxa sticks that have a minimum diameter of 0.6". You simply slide each stick into the top, metal-framed hole(s) where metal clamps hold it securely. The top cover itself is held gently in place by several small magnets, and its entire underside has a thin metallic veneer to help radiate heat toward the bottom opening of the box. Ventilation windows on opposite sides help ensure proper burning of the moxa, and a fine metal screen at the bottom ensures that no ash drops onto a patient’s skin. There is even a small nylon cord that attaches to hooks on opposite sides of the box, allowing you to easily and safely position the box over the areas requiring treatment.
Moxibustion (moxa) should only be administered under the direction or supervision of a qualified practitioner. To ensure safety, do not use moxa products that are damaged or cracked.
