This group of moxa products were develop as timesaving devices for practitioners using the fire needle technique. These moxas come pre-formed and can be conveniently placed on a needle. They are easily lit with an incense stick and hold together well while burning.
Cautions: All fire needle techniques must involve the use of a cardboard or tinfoil barrier placed on the skin underneath the moxa to catch any ashes in case of inadvertent movements from the patient. Please click here for key points and cautions about moxibustion
MAY 2019: IMPORTANT UPDATE ON MOXA PRODUCTS - PLEASE READ: Recently, our shipment of moxa products was stopped at the border and rejected by Health Canada. The reason for the refusal of entry into Canada was the decision that moxa products are considered to be natural health products and require licensing. We disagree with this, as moxa has been traditionally used as a therapeutic heating tool prior to there being electricity. Unfortunately, as we go through the appeal process, we will be unable to import moxa products and you may experience a delay in products being available. Should you like to address your concerns about the status of moxa products directly with Health Canada, you can submit your comments to ingredient_support@hc-sc.gc.ca
