Tong Ren Tang Moxa Sticks (Box of 10)

Please note expiration date on box is 2014.

Tong Ren Tang (同仁堂) moxa sticks are high-quality, traditional Chinese medicine products, often featuring five-year aged mugwort (Ai Ye) for even, long-lasting burning. They are ideal for beginners and home use to relieve pain, boost immunity, and improve blood circulation. Available options include traditional smokey and modern smokeless, golden-colored sticks that provide consistent, gentle, penetrating heat. 

Key Features of Tong Ren Tang Moxa:

• Quality & Aging: Known for using refined, aged mugwort, which provides a more comfortable, "gentle" heat compared to younger, sharper moxa.
• Varieties:
• Traditional: Produces fragrant smoke, often used for stronger therapeutic effects.
• Smokeless (Golden): Specially formulated to be nearly smoke-free, ideal for indoor, hygienic use.
• Performance: Burns evenly, has a long duration, and does not crumble easily.
• Usage: Used for moxibustion by holding the lit stick 1-2 inches above the skin, moving it in circular motions over acupuncture points. 

Safety and Usage Precautions:

• Usage: Never let the moxa directly touch the skin to avoid burning.
• Contraindications: Do not use on the face, near sensory organs, on mucous membranes, or if you have skin diseases or reduced sensitivity.
• Precautions: Ensure good ventilation, especially if using smoke-producing sticks. 

Always consult a qualified TCM practitioner for specific acupuncture points and to ensure moxibustion is appropriate for your condition.
