How to use Master Lee's Hot-Hot
Stick
Hot-Hot Stick is the technique of modified Moxibustion.
It is a technique used to indirectly heat the acupuncture points
on the body to tonify body energy. Hot-Hot Stick is
performed using a "moxa stick" -- made up of
tightly-packed herbs.
WARNING!
- Use the sticks according to Master Lee’s instructions.
- Do not touch the skin with lighted sticks.
- Do not use if you have a fever, infection or swollen part of the body.
- Do not use if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, tumors or cancer.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Do not burn your skin.
- Do not use on blister(s), blood vessels, face, or moles.
- Use the sticks in well ventilated areas (either a bathroom with a vent or outdoors).
- Use the sticks before 3PM (if possible).
- Use the sticks once a day.
- Be sure to extinguish the sticks after use.
- External use only.
- If you accidentally burn yourself, use proper first aid
(first aid cream or see your physician).
- If you see no improvement in 3 weeks, please make an
appointment to see your licensed provider.
Tools Needed:
- Candle, Lighter or Gas/Electrical Range
- Ashtray, Plate or Aluminum Foil to catch the ashes
- Aluminum Foil (or water) to put out the fire from the Hot-Hot
stick
How to use the Hot-Hot Stick:
-
Prepare two tinfoil ash trays, one for dry ash and one with
water (or have a cup of water on hand). Light the
Hot-Hot Stick on the range, stove or candle (tap off excess
ash to avoid falling pieces burning the skin). Determine
the appropriate energy-points.
-
Make a "V" with your index and middle finger
around the energy-point to help guide you. Wave the
burning head of the moxa stick close to the skin, without
touching the skin, to heat the energy point.
-
Be sure to communicate with the recipient (if having
someone else provide the procedure). Recipient should
say "warm", "hot" and then "hot,
hot" when the Hot-Hot Stick has heated the energy-point
to the point of tolerance (should feel like a needle or
stinging sensation). Once it reaches the point of
"hot, hot", pull away the moxa stick and press the
energy-point with your finger for a second or two. Then
heat again, following the same procedure.
-
Repeat heating a couple of times over each energy-point or by
Master Lee's personal instructions. Once treatment is
complete, extinguish Hot-Hot Stick in water or cap with
tinfoil. Wrap tip of Hot-Hot Stick in foil to be sure
the fire is out. Save for next use.
What to expect AFTER using the
Hot-Hot Stick:
-
The local area of the skin will be slightly red.
-
You should not feel pain at all after your application.
-
You should feel relief from your complaints within 5 to 7 days.
