Marma massage therapy is a traditional Ayurvedic massage technique that’s believed to help sustain the flow of energy throughout your body.

Marma are vital points of the body which contain Prana energy. Gentle pressure on Marma while doing massage provides Prana energy to the body and mind which gives ultimate healing.

There are 107 marma points located around your body, where tendons, bones, muscles, joints, veins, nerves, and other tissues meet.

Stimulation of these points is said to affect everything from the health of your organs to the production of hormones and more.
