What is moxibustion treatment

Condition analysis:
Moxibustion is a form of fire heat treatment that stimulates specific acupuncture points of the body. Moxibustion has been used in tandem with acupuncture to treat a variety of diseases throughout Asia for thousands of years. Most women who have difficulty conceiving have symptoms of cold hands and feet even in the summertime and sufficient blood flow to their reproductive organs is often compromised. The heat stimulation applied on selected acupuncture points helps to increase blood circulation to the uterus and pelvic area. The gentle soothing heat provided by moxa also induces a deep relaxation response that aids fertility as well.

Instructions:
Who should consider moxibustion? Because fire (yang) is its central element, moxibustion is most often used to dispel cold stagnation (yin) and the conditions that arise as a result. Common problems from a Western medicine lens that may be loosely associated with cold stagnation include:

Hypothyroidism
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
Sluggish digestion
Oversensitivity to cold
Fluid retention
Lowered immunity
Joint pain and arthritis
Depression and low mood
