Marma massage promotes good blood flow by stimulating the marma points, thereby promoting physical and mental rehabilitation. Increasing blood flow through these neuro-muscular junctions helps tone the corresponding muscles, which in turn can clear away obstructions that delay information being communicated between the muscles, nerves and brain.
More on Marma Massage
A Marma point is defined as an anatomical site where flesh, veins, arteries, tendons, bones and joints meet up. There are 107 of these vital points throughout the body and it is considered essential for health to ensure good blood flow throughout these neuro-muscular junctions. Similar with Acupuncture, marma points correspond to internal organs and systems of the body which react to manual stimulation.
Through centuries of practice it has been observed that the following symptoms can be alleviated through Marma massage: Nervousness and anxiety; Light headedness; Numbness; Metalic taste in the mouth, Tingling in the fingertips and toes; Stress; Fatigue; Physical weakness and Muscular aches and pains. Stroke victims benefit from Marma massage because the treatment helps the brain to ‘re-learn’ how to control and co-ordinate the muscles and nerves after illness or injury.
