Self‑Care: How I Conquered Chronic Ailments with a Moxibustion Bed
I’d long heard that moxibustion could help with chronic conditions, but I never gave it a try—until a coworker raved about her Jubutang moxibustion bed. She said her health improved across the board. That convinced me to finally take the plunge.
I’ve suffered for years from frozen shoulder, cervical spondylosis, chronic pharyngitis, irregular periods, and perpetually cold hands and feet. Tackling each complaint at the doctor’s office, one by one, felt endless. So when I learned a moxibustion bed could treat multiple issues at once, I was thrilled. I visited my coworker to inspect her setup: the bed, the moxa sticks, the loose moxa wool—even the ash. She showed me how to position the foil lining, light the moxa, and follow safety precautions. With everything set up, I took mine home and used it daily—and that was three years ago.
Here’s what stood out about Jubutang’s moxa sticks and wool over those three years:
-
They contain minimal volatile oils, burn slowly, and generate gentle, even heat.
-
They produce very little smoke, and the oils fully vaporize without irritating skin or lungs.
-
Their penetration is excellent, and the ash holds together—proof of genuine aged moxa.
Every summer, I’d wake at 3 AM to light moxa wool in a dish, then place a stick in the bed until dawn. By 6 AM, I’d be drenched in sweat yet feel utterly refreshed. I honestly can’t remember when my shoulder last ached—and I breeze through housework now. My husband noticed: “Your hands don’t hurt anymore?” I laughed and said, “Moxibustion fixed it.” He scoffed, then challenged me: “Heal my high blood pressure with it, and I’ll bow to you!” I happily tried, but he gave up after a few sessions—too much social drinking and not enough consistency.
Undeterred, I later added Jubutang’s massage rod, cupping set, eye mask, and small moxa cones to my toolkit. I treat any ache or pain on the spot, and when I have questions, the brand’s user group is only a message away. Over time, my moxibustion know‑how grew—so much that I now show off my “skills” to family and post tips on social media, drawing likes and comments. Sharing my journey makes me proud: moxibustion and I go way back with Chuye moxa sticks by our side.
For years, I battled chronic sore throats, needing IV drips and endless Western meds that never cured the root cause. After sleeping on a moxibustion bed for over three years, I haven’t had a throat flare‑up in two. That’s half thanks to moxa, half to pandemic mask‑wearing—but either way, a decade‑long ailment is finally gone. I plan to keep moxibusting as my go‑to preventive therapy from now on.
Moxibustion is a purely natural, side‑effect‑free therapy combining physical warming with herbal benefits. Originating in ancient China, it uses combusted mugwort fibers to heal and preserve health. Its green, gentle power has carried it through generations. Remember: moxibustion takes patience and persistence—no quick fixes. Continue long enough, and the results can be remarkable. For lifelong wellness, stick with it. My journey isn’t over, and I trust that with Jubutang, my health will only get better.
