Moxa Artemisia Vulgaris , or dehydrated mugwort, is the
herb that is burnt in moxa therapy. Traditionally, acupuncture was not performed without
moxa. Studies have shown that this herb has the highest concentration of infrared heat of
any substance known to man. When this herb is burned over points on the body it has the
ability to increase white blood cell counts, increase function of the internal organs and
relax musculoskeletal tension. Angela
