Course Overview

Moxa is an excellent way to deeply warm the body, more important now, as we head into winter. In fact, between the change of seasons, there is a two week period which Susan's Teacher, Dr. Ta, refers to as “Moxa Season.”

 

Do you know about the Moxa Seasons? Every year there are several two-week windows based on the lunar calendar, where the Ming Men (the Gateway to the Kidney) is wide open.

 

Because of this, every moxa treatment has a more than double effect on the constitution, however, getting sick during moxa season can cause one to be very ill, causing severe repercussions throughout the entire year.

    Susan was very engaging! She opened me up to a new way of using moxa and increased my interest in utilizing Master Tung points.

  • Paige O. (Australia)

    This was my first course with Susan. I find it helpful to hear about her clinical stories as well as her honesty when she doesn't have an answer. Very good and accessible information. Thank you Susan.

  • Brittany K. (Canada)

    This course far exceeded my expectations. It is filled with so much more knowledge than just moxa (ie. acupuncture and general knowledge/experience in the medicine) It has most definitely inspired me to make moxa a part of my regular practice.

Susan Johnson has a wealth of knowledge on both moxibustion techniques and the use of Dr Tung's points. She also introduces the use of moxa on Korean Hand Therapy points. I would recommend this course for both reasons and now plan to study both KHT and Dr Tung's points.
