Moxa Stand Tiger

The Tiger Warmer is a portable, handheld device used in traditional Chinese medicine for moxibustion therapy. It is designed to apply heat to specific acupuncture points or areas on the body, promoting circulation and enhancing the flow of Qi (vital energy). 

Key Features:

• Design: Typically constructed from chrome-plated brass or stainless steel, the Tiger Warmer consists of two main parts: an inner sleeve that holds a burning moxa stick and an outer protective cover. The device often includes a spring mechanism to adjust the position of the moxa stick during treatment.

• Dimensions: The device comes in various sizes. For instance, a common model measures approximately 4.8 inches (12 cm) in length with a diameter of 0.4 inches (1 cm), suitable for warming smaller acupuncture points. Another variant is about 5.5 inches (14 cm) long with a diameter of 0.55 inches (1.4 cm), designed for larger areas.

• Moxa Compatibility: The Tiger Warmer is compatible with specific moxa sticks designed for its size. For example, the smaller warmer uses moxa sticks measuring approximately 0.18 inches (4.5 mm) in diameter and 3.5 inches (85 mm) in length, while the larger version accommodates sticks about 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) in diameter and 5 inches (127 mm) long.

Usage:

To use the Tiger Warmer, insert a lit moxa stick into the inner sleeve and place it within the outer protective cover. The device is then applied to the desired acupuncture point or area, allowing the heat to penetrate and stimulate healing. The design ensures that ash is contained, reducing the risk of burns and making the process safer and more controlled. 

The Tiger Warmer offers a convenient and effective method for administering moxibustion, providing targeted heat therapy to support traditional healing practices.
