Market Overview

Burning the plant moxa is a component of the traditional Chinese medical procedure known as moxibustion, which promotes healing. It is intended to encourage the flow of qi, or life force, much like acupuncture. The dried leafy material of Chinese mugwort (Artemesia argyi or A. vlugaris) is typically used to make moxa, although it can also be created from other materials.

Market Dynamics

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

Moxibustion, effective therapy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been widely used to treat COVID-19, especially during recovery. Moxibustion instruments companies initially focused on the immediate crisis response: keeping employees safe, ensuring business continuity, and dealing with the rapid changes in the healthcare ecosystem. Unfortunately, providers of elective or non-emergent procedures are seeing a substantial decline in the volume of procedures which, in turn, results in a decline in revenue. Throughout the world, but especially in larger cities where stay-at-home orders have been enforced, many of these Moxibustion centers have been closed for the foreseeable future. Thus, the pandemic impacted the market. However, after everything becomes normal, the companies in the market generate revenue, which will further drive the market growth in the forecast period.

Segment Analysis

The indirect moxibustion segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2029)

The indirect type is the more popular form of moxibustion because it has a lower risk of pain or burning. In indirect moxibustion, an acupuncture practitioner burns one end of a moxa stick and keeps it close to the therapy area for a few minutes until the area turns red. Another form of indirect moxibustion utilizes both acupuncture needles and moxa. A needle is inserted into an acupoint and controlled. The tip of the needle is then covered in moxa and ignited, which creates heat in the point and the surrounding region. Once the person experiences relief, the moxa is extinguished, and the needle is withdrawn. It is commonly used alongside acupuncture in China, but it's not as ordinary in the U.S. because some clinics have poor ventilation that can't adjust the smoke and the smell.
