Yesterday I had a super quick appointment with my Acupuncturist – I do not respond well to herbs at all, and I’m one of the very few who completely dislike acupunture. I do respond well to Moxa though – in that I get really red and hot easily, and love the feeling of being warm (since I get that feeling so rarely). Anyways, rather than come in for sessions, she wants to teach me how to do it at home with Gav – it will save me money, and I can have more ‘treatments’ throughout the week. I thought it was a great idea. She taught me how, where and how often Gav should do it.
I went home and warned taught Gav – we just watched a show in bed so I could veg and relax and he wouldn’t get too bored. I got nice and red again – bring on the warm uterus!
I’m curious about this treatment – I hope it works. I’m sick of not responding typically to things and being really “interesting” medically. I want to believe in this, but there’s still something holding me back. It could be just the idea of a giant cigar-like stick supposedly healing my cold uterus from the outside-in. It’s amazing what TTC will do to you. I never thought I would be trying and believing in these types of treatments. But I guess when you think you’ve tried everything, there’s always one more thing to try.
So, is moxa ligit or an eye-roll treatment?
