Ayurveda and Marma Therapy November 7, 2008
Dr. Tami Brady (Calgary, Canada)
I think that the majority of people have some understanding of the concepts behind acupuncture and acupressure. Tiny needles or pressure is put into or onto certain points of the body. These points lay along meridian lines along which chi or life energy flows. By doing so, blockages or stagnation is eliminated and the natural flow is resumed. In turn, the body regains its health.
In some ways, Marma Therapy is similar to these methods. Marma Therapy also looks to correct the natural energy flow in the body to correct health issues. Specific points on the body are used to do so. Some forms of Marma Therapy even use acupressure techniques.
However, with Marma Therapy, these points are generally massaged in a particular way. The direction of the massage, the oils employed, the accompanying meditations, and the actual points worked upon are tailored to the individual based upon his or her Ayurvedic type and the particular excesses or deficiencies that need to be balanced. Overall, it is a far more complex process but one that is perfectly suited to the individual's needs.
Wonderfully informative book October 31, 2008

I really love David Frawley's style of writing and conveying information. It is logical and easy to follow. I particularly liked the introductory chapters on how and why marmamani were discovered. I would also recommend Dr Vasant Lad's new book "Marma Points of Ayurveda" which is a great companion to David Frawley's fantastic book.
