Marma

Marma refers to specific vital points in the human body, primarily recognized in Ayurvedic medicine, an ancient system of healing from India. These points are believed to be intersections of physical and spiritual energies, where tissues like muscles, tendons, and bones meet. There are 107 identified Marma points, each associated with various health benefits and functions. Practitioners may use techniques like massage or acupressure on these points to improve health, relieve pain, and promote overall well-being by restoring balance to the body’s energies. Understanding Marma can enhance one's approach to holistic health practices.
