Broken sleep isn't just tiring.
In TCM, it's depleting your life force.
In TCM, poor sleep comes down to an unsettled Shen.
These self-heating patches deliver warmth and TCM herbs directly to the body, calming scattered energy and preparing you for the kind of sleep you've been missing.
THE BENEFITS
Moxibustion is a TCM therapy that has been practised alongside acupuncture for over 3,000 years.
It works by applying heat from dried Mugwort to specific acupressure points on the body, stimulating Qi flow, clearing stagnation, and restoring balance.
Traditionally prescribed by TCM practitioners for sleep disorders rooted in heart deficiency and an unsettled Shen.
Each patch is infused with three powerful herbs traditionally used to support deep sleep and calm the mind:
Mugwort (艾草 / Artemisia argyi)
The cornerstone of moxibustion. For centuries, mugwort's calming and warming properties have been used to promote relaxation, soothe the nerves, and support deeper, more restful sleep.
Bai Zi Ren (柏子仁 / Platycladus orientalis seed)
A TCM staple for nourishing the heart and calming the mind. Bai Zi Ren helps reduce anxiety, ease restlessness, and improve sleep quality, gently supporting your body's natural transition to rest.
Long Yan Rou (龙眼肉 / Longan aril)
Known as a gentle tonic for the heart and spleen. Long Yan Rou relieves fatigue, stabilises emotions, and promotes peaceful, restorative sleep, honouring your body's need for true rest.
Peel off the protective film.
Apply to your lower abdomen, your lower Dantian, 30–60 minutes before bed. Can also be placed between the shoulder blades for those who carry tension in the upper back.
The sustained warmth signals your nervous system to shift from activation into rest. The herbs support your heart through the night.
Avoid use on broken or sensitive skin.
External use only.

Scattered Qi is why you can't switch off
In TCM, the area just below your navel is where your body stores its energy. When you're stressed, that energy rises up and gets scattered. Warming this spot brings it back down and tells your nervous system it's safe to rest
Ease restlessness • Nourish the heart • Support deep sleep
TCM sleep support
In TCM, poor sleep has one root cause. When the heart is depleted, by stress, emotional overload, living at full speed, your Shen can't anchor at night. Sleep becomes light, broken, unrefreshing.
When exposed to air, iron powder oxidises to generate consistent warmth (40-46°C) for 4 hours. Just peel, apply, and let the heat do the work.
Moxibustion has been prescribed in Chinese medicine for over 3,000 years. Herbal warmth applied to the lower Dantian grounds scattered Qi, nourishes the heart, and guides the body into deep, restorative sleep.
Inside each moxibustion patch
Apply at the first sign of cramping or lower back pain. Best used from day 1 through your heaviest flow days.
Lower abdomen (below navel, over lower Dantian) is ideal for calming. Upper back (between shoulder blades) works well for those who carry tension there.
