Marma Points of Ayurveda

Marma points are an important element of Ayurveda's healing power.

Developed in India centuries ago, these energy points profoundly affect the body, mind and spirit and facilitate the deepest levels of healing.

Prana is the current of energy that infuses every cell within the body.

Stimulating marmani (energy points) directly taps into this reservoir of energy and promotes health.

This work is the first of its kind to systematically present all 117 marmani according to their individual energetics and to compare them with the Chinese system of acupuncture points.

Detailed commentaries for each marma shed light on their diagnostic and therapeutic scope.

Marma therapy integrates vital knowledge of the energy points with specific techniques of Ayurvedic massage, detoxification, acupressure, aromatherapy, yoga practices, meditation and more.

This book is a valuable resource for Ayurvedic practitioners and acupuncturists as well as medical doctors, massage therapists and yoga therapists.

It also serves as a foundation to develop tools for one's own self-healing and for students of various medical systems who are seeking a holistic approach to health.
