Traditional vs. Modern

Traditional moxa therapy involves burning mugwort sticks or cones, which release smoke and heat. Electric moxa therapy offers a smokeless, odor-free alternative with precise temperature control, making it more practical for modern lifestyles.

Common forms include:

• Direct moxibustion: Burning moxa directly on the skin.
• Indirect moxibustion: Using moxa over a medium like ginger or salt.
• Electric moxibustion: Using a modern device, like Doctor Moxa, for controlled, smokeless heat therapy.

Our herbal patches contain finely shredded specific herbs selected for their unique functions and healing properties. When combined with the heat from our smartpods, the patches activate and deliver warmth to the acupoints on your body. This synergy helps relieve tension, improve circulation, and restore balance, all while offering a clean and controlled experience.

Doctor Moxa combines the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with modern technology. Key features include:

• Smart charging of all 4 smartpods simultaneously in the home station.
• Long-lasting design created by TCM enthusiasts and therapists after extensive development.
• Eco-friendly practices, including the option to recycle devices and participate in our Burning Parties for used moxa patches.

Each Doctor Moxa program is tailored to support different areas of well-being, from pain relief to stress management. If you’re unsure which program is right for you, think about your current needs:

• Are you looking to relieve muscle tension or joint pain?
• Are you interested in improving circulation or finding balance after a stressful day?
• Do you need a solution to support your digestion or immune system?

Our program descriptions are designed to help guide you, but if you have any questions, we’re always here to help you make the best choice.

Yes, our smartpods feature three adjustable heat settings, allowing you to choose the level of heat that works best for each acupoint. This makes the therapy more effective and personalized, as different points on your body may require different levels of warmth for optimal results.

Settings:

• Blue light (Low): 47°C
• Green light (Medium): 52°C
• Red light (High): 57°C

These light indicators help you easily identify which heat level is in use, ensuring you can adjust the temperature based on your comfort and therapeutic needs.

The Smartpod is designed to last for sessions of up to 60 minutes. If you’re planning a longer session, we recommend fully charging the Smartpod beforehand. To maintain battery health, charge the device after use and store it in a cool, dry place.

First, ensure the device is fully charged. If the issue persists:

• Check for dirt or debris obstructing the heating element.
• Reset the device by turning it off and on again.
• Contact customer support for further assistance.

The detailed guidelines provided with your program will specify the ideal duration for each session. Following these instructions ensures that you get the best possible results from your treatment.

Yes, our herbal moxa patches are designed with gentle materials and high-quality herbs suitable for most skin types. However, if you have sensitive skin, we recommend testing the patch on a small area first. If you experience irritation, discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional.

No, the herbal patches are designed for single-use to ensure maximum effectiveness during each session. After each use, simply discard the patch and apply a fresh one for your next treatment. This ensures that you’re getting the full benefit of the therapy with every application.

Store the herbal patches in a cool, dry place to maintain their effectiveness. For the smartpods, ensure they are fully charged and stored safely when not in use. Keeping everything clean and dry will help maintain their performance for future sessions.

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the device after each use. For disinfecting, lightly dampen the cloth with a mild, non-corrosive disinfectant. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging the device in water to protect its electronic components. Regular cleaning and occasional disinfecting ensure optimal hygiene and performance.
