Moxibustion

Using moxibustion has been shown beneficial in healing injuries, clearing illness and enhancing general health.

Gua Sha works with conditions such as headache, migraine, neck, shoulder, back, and knee pain, as well as acute diseases such as fever, flu, earaches, asthma and bronchitis in children and adults.
