Abstract:
A moxa burning bowl is provided for application of heat treatment to body portions of a user, with the bowl having a flexible ring-shaped base member of a flexible cloth-like exterior and granular material therein, shaped in a ring-like or torus-like configuration, and having a generally concave shaped upper dish-like member and an open bottom, defining a zone therebetween when the bowl is placed on an exterior surface of a patient/user, for treatment. Moxa sticks or cones are carried by the dish-like member, projecting upwardly therefrom, and situated in sockets of the dish-like member, with the dish-like member having an upstanding periphery, enabling the dish-like member to catch fallen ash from burning moxa sticks or cones carried by the bowel.
