Residents of Fuzhou, Fujian province receive moxibustion treatment on one of the hottest days of the year, July 14, 2011. Moxibustion is the burning of moxa, a downy substance obtained from the dried leaves of an Asian plant related to mugwort, on or near a person's skin as a counterirritant. This treatment benefits people's health and can even prevent some illnesses that may come in the winter. [Photo/Asianewsphoto] |
