––––––––

Our Mother Earth has given us an extraordinary plant, Artemis, native to Asia.

Traditional Chinese Medicine has used it for thousands of years.

Its healing properties, provided by its active components, have been optimal in different pathologies.

In the moxibustion technique, the heat that the mugwort gives us, enters the body to strengthen our natural defenses, raise vitality, soothe muscle pain, while the pleasant aroma it gives off relaxes the nervous system, achieving a pleasant sensation.

Indicated in Cold pathologies or Qi Yang deficiency, and to disperse the wind, it should not be used indiscriminately, we must know its effects to implement this therapy in the appropriate cases.

Here, you will find special techniques and treatments for different pathologies, in detail, and their fundamentals according to TCM.

I propose that you study this book, and if it is the first time you have knowledge of oriental medicine, or if you are a student, I encourage you to continue researching on Chinese Medicine, you will find an exciting world, with different alternatives of treatments, and most importantly with a special philosophy, which helps us to see the world in another way, expanding our mind.
