🔥 Fire & Flow: Your Burning Questions About Moxa Answered
With Jonah Welch, Clinical Herbalist
There's an ancient saying from the Ling Shu: "Where the needle does not work, moxibustion does." Two thousand years later? Still true.
Join us for an intimate, hands-on evening exploring one of Chinese medicine's most powerful and most underrated therapies. Whether you're curious about what that warm, smoky herb is all about or someone who wants to start using moxa at home, this talk is for you.
Here's what we'll cover:
What moxa actually is and why we reach for it
A brief (and fascinating) history spanning millennia
How it works through both a TCM and biomedical lens
Classical indications straight from the source texts
A live technique demo
Safety, contraindications, and when NOT to use it
How to use moxa at home for period pain, digestion, injuries, arthritis, and more
Expect good conversation, real talk, and maybe a little smoke.
Space is limited. RSVP is required.
