What happens at your first moxibustion appointment

Knowing what to expect makes the first visit easier. Here is how a first moxibustion appointment runs for patients coming to us from Lalor Park.

  1. Health history and consultation

    Your first appointment begins with a detailed conversation about your main concern, medical history, current medications, sleep, digestion, energy and stress levels. This usually takes 15–20 minutes and shapes everything that follows.

  2. Traditional Chinese Medicine assessment

    Joy uses tongue and pulse diagnosis alongside your history to identify the underlying pattern behind your symptoms. This is what distinguishes TCM from symptom-led care — two people with the same complaint often receive quite different treatment.

  3. Moxibustion treatment

    Dried mugwort is warmed near, or on a barrier over, specific points. You should feel a comfortable penetrating warmth and never anything close to burning. Smokeless moxa is available if you prefer.

  4. Treatment plan and expectations

    Before you leave, you will have a clear plan: how many sessions are likely, how frequently, what improvement to look for, and by when. If Traditional Chinese Medicine is not the right fit for your concern, Joy will tell you and suggest where to go instead.

How long it takes. Standalone moxibustion 30–45 minutes; combined with acupuncture 60 minutes.

How many sessions Lalor Park patients need

For cold-type or constitutional presentations, expect eight to twelve sessions. Where moxibustion is used for breech presentation, treatment runs daily over a short window between roughly weeks 32 and 36, with Joy showing you how to continue at home.

Before and after your session

  • Stay warm and avoid cold drinks for a few hours after treatment.
  • The aroma lingers on clothing and hair — worth knowing before an evening appointment.
  • If you are using home moxa, follow the timing you were shown exactly and stop if the skin reddens sharply.

What the evidence says about moxibustion

The best-known application is moxibustion at point BL67 for breech presentation, where trial results are encouraging but not conclusive, and it should only be done with obstetric awareness. Other uses rest largely on traditional practice and clinical experience rather than large trials.
