This stainless-steel spring holder for smokeless moxibustion (“burning moxa“, made from Chinese mugwort plant — Artemisia vulgaris) sticks was specifically created by an acupuncturist (and massage therapist) that allows a practitioner to comfortably hold a moxa stick far away from its heat, and in so doing, the holder allows the moxa stick to be burned almost to its very end, so virtually none is wasted. Its durable stainless steel construction will give years of faithful and lasting service. Using two pliers and applying force in opposite directions, the width of the holder’s mouth (spiral) can be adjusted if need be. Used alone above the surface of the skin, or with needles, the beauty of moxa is that unlike the heat of a cigar or incense that remains at the skin level, moxa burns at a special frequency that penetrates deeply beyond the skin and into the tissues below. It is this unique property of bringing warmth and energy to the body, while activating Qi “energy” and blood that makes moxa so effective, which the ancient Chinese masters discovered more than 5 thousand years ago. And because of its success in treating a wide variety of disorders, its use has now spread to the far reaches of the globe.
