Oran Kivity’s first book was Moxa in Motion with the Ontake Method. For this second book on rhythmic moxibustion, he has researched the Hirata Zones extensively, decoding the approaches not only of Hirata, but his more famous exponent, Dr Manaka. Simply written and clearly illustrated, this is the first systematic exploration in English of these ideas, repurposing them for contemporary practice.

In this book, you will learn:

• How to load, light, and apply bamboo safely
• The twelve Hirata zones and their mappings
• The integration of Dr Manaka’s meridian frequencies
• Basic, intermediate, and complex strategies for treating over 200 diseases
• Strategies for home treatment

Hirata Zone Therapy will significantly expand your reach as a practitioner, adding new understanding and extra momentum to your treatments, whatever your style of practice.
