灸
U+7078 "灸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to moxibustion, a traditional Chinese medicine technique involving the burning of dried mugwort (moxa) on or near specific points on the body to promote healing and relieve pain. Composed of the radical for fire (火) and a phonetic component, this character directly conveys its connection to heat and therapeutic burning. In East Asian contexts, "灸" appears in terms related to acupuncture and moxibustion therapy, and it can also be used in compound words to denote cauterization or the general concept of applying heat for medical treatment.
