Marma Therapy by Veda5, Best Ayurveda Treatments in Rishikesh, Kerala & Goa, India

Marma – Vital Points of Body

Marma is a Sanskrit word which refers to any open, exposed, weak or sensitive part of the body. In Ayurveda, it is a point in the human body that’s located at the intersections of veins, muscles, joints, bones, ligaments or tendons. These points are considered to be vital points because they are infused with prana (life force energy) and are influenced by consciousness. Marma points are also stimulated by touch/massage.

Profound Affect on Body, Mind & Spirit

Marma points are an important element of Ayurveda’s healing power. These energy points profoundly affect the body, mind and spirit as well as facilitate the deepest levels of healing. Stimulating marma points directly taps into the individual’s reservoir of energy and promotes good health.

Affects Chakras, Doshas and Various Organs & Systems of Body 

There are 107 major marma points in the human body  (Face, head, arms, legs, abdomen, chest, back and trunk) which are connected to the seven chakras, while the minor marma points are found around the torso and the limbs. Stimulating the marma points affects the chakras and the doshas (types of energy in the body). It also stimulates the various organs and systems of the body.

Procedure of Marma Therapy

• Use the tips of your fingers to gently but firmly stimulate each marma point listed below.
• Massage each point in a clockwise circular motion for up to 5 minutes.
• Optionally, use herb-infused massage oils during your massage.

Location of Marma Points in Human Body

It’s said that there are 107 marma points in various locations around the human body:

• 11 marma points in your limbs.
• 26 marma points in your trunk.
• 37 marma points in your head and neck region.
• 33 marma points located elsewhere in your body.

Benefits of Ayurvedic Marma Therapy

1. It remove  blocks in energy channels called shrotas.
2. It pacifies vata dosha, (air and space elements), bringing it to its normal path— especially vyana vata, (a sub-dosha which controls the autonomic nervous system.)
3. It creates physical, mental and emotional flexibility. Because of ama (toxins) and because of vata, human beings after 35 or 40 years of age become rigid — and this happens to animals and plants as well.  As vata increases in body, it leads to degeneration. This rigidity  means becoming fixed in ideas, emotions and physical movements.
