Marma Therapy is a remarkable healing technique of Ayurveda, the timeless and holistic system of traditional health care. It is the art of treating specific vital points (Marmas) of the human body.
Maharishi Marma Therapy works on the level of consciousness of both practitioner and patient. A certified Maharishi Marma Therapist applies specific blends of essential oils with a tender, careful touch. This subtle and delicate treatment enlivens the inner intelligence in the Marmas to heal, purify, strengthen, rejuvenate and revitalize.
