お灸のは2000年前からあり、三国志の物語にもでてきます。温熱でツボを温めて血行を良くすることで、人間が本来持っている自然治癒能力を高めていきます。体内の気の巡りが滞ると、不調や冷えの原因になります。鍼で滞りが解消されると体が温かくなり気分が落ち着いてきます。血行を改善し、免疫機能や代謝機能を高めると、病気になりにくい体を作ることができます。体を温め、体の緊張が解け、リラックスすると、気持ちも落ち着き、深い呼吸ができます。お灸に使うもぐさの正体は、よもぎです。キク科で、煎じて飲んだり、草餅にしたりと、活に馴染み深い植物です。このよもぎには、利尿作用、健胃作用、解熱作用、止血作用などのさまざまな薬効もあります。

Moxibustion has been around for 2,000 years and is mentioned in the stories of the Three Kingdoms. By warming acupuncture points with heat and improving blood circulation, it enhances the natural healing ability of the human body. When the circulation of qi in the body is blocked, it can cause discomfort and coldness. When the stagnation is cleared by acupuncture, the body becomes warmer and the mood calms down. Improving blood circulation and enhancing immune and metabolic functions will make the body less prone to illness. When the body is warmed, tension in the body is released, and you relax, you will feel calm and breathe deeply. The moxa used for moxibustion is actually mugwort. It is a member of the Asteraceae family, and is a plant that is very familiar to people who live in Japan, as it is roasted and drunk, or made into grass cakes. This mugwort has various medicinal effects such as diuretic, stomachic, antipyretic, and hemostatic.
