The marmas (similar to acupressure points) are physical and energetic points
around the body when massaged they can have a profound effect on the healing
of the body. Marma therapy stimulates various organs and systems of the
body releasing physical and emotional blockages that impair our health.
This purifying and invigorating practice removes damaging toxins and regenerates
the whole body for renewed health and vitality.
What are marmas?
Marma is a Sanskrit word meaning hidden or secret.
A marma point is a juncture on the body where two or more types of tissue
meet, such as muscles, veins, ligaments, bones or joints. Although marma
points are much more than a casual connection of tissue and fluids, they
are points of the vital life force.
During the aging process over the years our imbalances begin to block the
movement of free-flowing energy in the body (life force energy). Eventually,
the stagnation of this flow of life force energy leads to physical and mental
discomfort and disease.
The body is a silent, universal, biochemical laboratory, touching a marma
point changes the body's biochemistry. Stimulation of these marma points
signals to the body to produce exactly what it needs, including neurochemicals
and hormones that heal the body, mind and consciousness.
