Christmas is just a few days away, and Palace Herbal Spa would like to present this present for you as a heart warming experience.

Moxibustion is a cone, or a stick, made of Chinese sage to heat up the acupunture point to treat chronic diseases, and common ailments. When winter comes, especially during the wet or snow season, moxibustion is widely used by people to drive away or prevent cold or chill.

I am here to off you this very simple way to do it:

I understand that you may not be able to get moxibustion supplies here in San Diego, but you can use cone incense instead. Put the cone in the cone burner, burn the incense, put your fingers around the burning, let the heat go up to the center of your palm (Be careful, do not burn yourself).There is one primary acupunture point called lao gong--Labor Palace, on the Pericardium Channel. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, you have 5 hearts: two on your hands, two on your feet, and they are all connected. So warming your Labor Palace will warm your heart and mind, and your whole body too. When you feel chill, do this simple moxibustion for ten minutes, you will feel warm from inside out!  Please recommend to friends, a few dollars investment worth a million!

You can choose your favorite incense. I recommend lavender if you have trouble sleeping, and rose if you are in low spirit. Sage will be the best to fight cold and chill.
