Classically referred to as smokeless moxa rolls, to distinguish them from the standard herb product – this product is not entirely “smokeless”
The sticks create less smoke and scent than the non-smokeless brands and are therefore more suitable for indoor or confined areas.
The rigid, compressed sticks are produced using a special charcoal process.
For those using in confined or shared spaces or who are averse to the stronger fragrance/ smoke of moxibustion, this makes for an effective and useful alternative smokeless low fragrance giving option.
