This is a handy sized moxibustion tool held in the hand with a wooden handle and metallic tip. Place the burning incense stick or pure moxa stick into the cylinder from the wooden handle. Fix the burning stick at a particular point inside so that it does not reach the bottom of metallic tip. Place it on the skin or lay some pieces of gauze or cotton on the heated area below the cylinder bottom in order to regulate the temperature if necessary. After the treatment, turn the cylinder upside down to remove the stick and put out the fire. Some cylinders are made of ceramic or other materials (Figure C12).
