San Fu Moxibustion is a treatment given during the hottest days of summer. It is a therapy where we “treat winter diseases during the summer”. The concept behind San Fu is that we are capturing some of the strongest yang energy of the year and “hiding it away” to warm our immunity and prepare for autumn when cold & flu, allergies and respiratory illness run rampant.

One cornerstone of Asian medicine is the element of preventative medicine. In the wake of our recent pandemic, it is increasingly vital that we keep our immune systems at peak performance. This therapy has been clinically researched to do just that! San Fu Moxa, also known as Celestial or Heavenly Moxa, has been used since the Qing Dynasty to enhance health and prevent illness in the next season. In this to-go treatment, a special herbal paste is taped on specific acupuncture points known to improve respiratory health.

We make San Fu Moxa by mixing specially chosen, high quality warming herbs formulated by China Herb Co. and fresh ginger juice, form it into little pea size balls, and apply it to the points with an adhesive patch. These patches are left on the skin to stimulate the points for 2-8 hours. This treatment is traditionally done in a series of 3 treatments spaced 10 days apart, but even one or two treatments can be beneficial!

For a limited time in July and August we’re offering this special treatment to boost your immunity for the fall and winter. Schedule your San Fu moxa treatments now!

Add San Fu Moxa on to your acupuncture session or schedule a 15 minute San Fu Moxa treatment a-la-carte. Each application is $25. Schedule online or call the office for more information.  (This treatment is not billable to insurance.)
