Instructions & Precautions
* Before starting, clean the treatment area with alcohol swabs
and let it dry.
* Remove paper from the bottom of the holder or base & light
up the moxa.
* Align the aperture at the base with chosen acupuncture points
and affix to the skin.
* Please ensure good adherence when affixing the stick-on moxa
to the skin.
* During treatment, depending on location of therapy, skin
sensitivity and types of moxa used, consider using a heat
buffering shield to reduce excess heat penetration. In general,
stick-on moxa with strong heat release should be removed when
three quarters of the moxa shaft has been combusted or when the
patient feels it's uncomfortably hot. Leaving the moxa till
fully combusted may result in blister formation or burns injury.
* When removing moxa, pinch the holder at the base. Do not directly
grip the shaft of the holder while it's hot. Use a heat insulating
glove if necessary.
