This experiential class introduces students to the traditional healing art of moxibustion—the application of heat via mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris)—to support pelvic, digestive, and reproductive wellness. Drawing on East Asian and global traditional medicine systems, students will learn how to safely and effectively apply moxa to themselves and others to warm the womb, move stagnation, ease menstrual and pelvic pain, support fertility, and nourish postpartum recovery.
Moxibustion is simple, profound, and deeply feminine in its approach. It reconnects us with the healing element of fire, helping to dispel cold, stagnation, and depletion that so often underlie pelvic imbalance.
