Moxibustion gets the blood moving. It also helps with dampness, digestion, and sleep. For people who sit at desks all day, it's a low-effort way to feel a bit better.
Light the moxa stick, hold it near the skin. The warmth goes in, you start to sweat, and the cold feeling fades. That's pretty much what happens.
Mugwort is warm by nature. Dried and processed, it carries that heat deeper. Nothing complicated about it.
It's not instant. But it's also not aggressive. Some things are worth the wait.
