Moxibustion

A therapy that consists of burning moxa (dried mugwort) on acupuncture points to warm the area, which helps to stimulate circulation. Can be used to turn breech babies. Studies show that 50% of breech babies will turn with no treatment, and with Moxabustion 75% will move.

Treatment is perfectly safe and non-invasive.

Cupping

Glass cups are placed on the skin, creating suction. Cups can be left on for up to 15 minutes or moved while suction of skin is active. The treatment gives the tissue a deep massage.
