How San Fu Tian Moxa Treatments Can Help You Heal
If you're looking for a gentle yet powerful way to boost your immune system, improve your energy, or support long-standing health concerns like asthma or fertility challenges, San Fu Tian moxa treatments might be the seasonal ritual your body has been craving.
What Is Moxa + San Fu Tian?
Moxibustion, or “moxa,” is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves warming specific acupuncture points with dried mugwort (Ai Ye). This warming therapy promotes circulation and helps to balance the flow of Qi in the body.
San Fu Tian or “Dog Days Moxa” is a special moxibustion treatment offered only on the three hottest days of the year according to the lunar calendar. These days are thought to be when the body is most receptive to strengthening treatments that prevent cold and damp imbalances by harnessing the warmth and Yang energy of the summer’s heat. Mark your calendar - 2025’s dates are July 20, July 30 and August 9.
What Can San Fu Tian Help With?
This seasonal treatment is traditionally used to support:
Fertility concerns: by warming the uterus and improving circulation to the reproductive organs
Chronic asthma or frequent colds: by strengthening lung function and reducing respiratory flare-ups
Low energy or cold constitution: helping to gently boost Yang energy and support immune health
The treatment involves placing moxa on a slice of ginger or on a needle in order to allow the moxa to penetrate deep into the tissues and meridians to help bring you to a place of balance.
Why Try It?
San Fu Tian is a proactive, preventative practice for those who want to support long-term health, especially if you tend to feel cold easily, get sick often, or are navigating reproductive health concerns.
Let your summer wellness routine include something traditional, therapeutic, and deeply nourishing.
What to Expect?
You will feel some warmth at the site of the moxa application and may feel energized after the session. There is a herbal smell when moxa is released so save your hair wash day for after this treatment and wear clothes that don’t require dry cleaning.
