Moxibustion

Many patients in Upper Mustang live a very difficult and physical life.  Their daily work takes a toll on their bodies, and many have chronic pain.  Amchi Pema treats a patient at the 8th Annual Upper Mustang Health Camp for shoulder pain using Moxibustion, a traditional therapy administered by burning dried mugwort close to the area of pain.  Most patients report positive results in a very short time following treatment.
