Marma Massage

In yoga, the human being is more than the physical body: we are also energy, mind and consciousness. According to traditional understanding, the subtle energy body is permeated by around 72,000 nadis — the channels through which life energy flows. At special intersections of this inner force lie the marma points, of which Ayurveda usually names 107, and spiritual traditions often 108. When the flow of energy falls out of balance, this can show itself as tension, discomfort or pain. The Ayurvedic marma massage works through gentle touch on these vital points and can help prana to flow more freely again and strengthen the inner balance.
