Description: Acupuncture and moxibustion are forms of traditional Chinese medicine widely practiced in China, but also in the regions of Southeast Asia, Europe and America. Theories of acupuncture and moxibustion hold that the human body is a small universe connected by channels that, through physical stimulation, allow the practitioner to tone the body's self-regulating functions and bring health to the patient. This stimulation involves burning moxa (mugwort) or placing needles on points located on these channels in order to restore balance to the body and prevent and treat illness. In acupuncture, the needles are selected according to the individual's condition and are used to prick and stimulate the chosen points. Moxibustion is generally divided into direct and indirect moxibustion; One is practiced by placing moxa cones directly on points, the other by holding a moxa stick at a certain distance from the body surface to warm a specific point. Moxa cones and sticks are made from dried mugwort leaves. Acupuncture and moxibustion are taught through oral instruction and demonstration, and are transmitted through the master-disciple relationship or through clan members. At present, the practice of acupuncture and moxibustion is also transmitted through formal education at universities.
