How to use Moxa throughout your Cycle to Support your Fertility

Описание: Today Yinova acupuncturist Katy Hogan is showing us how to use moxa throughout your cycle to support your fertility.

In Chinese medicine, various medicinal plants and herbs have specific functions and properties. Moxa, for example, is known to be warming, invigorating, and nourishing. It also has an affinity for the Kidney, Spleen and Liver channels - the three most important channels for treating infertility.

Moxa throughout the cycle can help:

regulate the blood (in this case, think menstrual blood and the blood that nourishes the entire reproductive system)

disperse internal “cold”

help relieve pain (think menstrual cramps)

The heat from burning moxa is deeply penetrating; when the moxa is burned, the precise properties and functions of the herb enter directly into the acupuncture points and channels along with the heat. For this reason, burning moxa is qualitatively different than the simple application of heat through, for example, a heating pad.

If you would like to try this at home, you can purchase one of our moxa bundles from our online store and if you would like to learn more about the steps you can take from home to help support and optimize your fertility, please reach out to Katy, or anyone from our team, for a Virtual Consultation.
