Ayurveda is the 5,000 year old healing science of India and sister science to yoga.  It is the oldest and most continued health care system in the world.  Ayurveda translates as the, “Science of Life.” Based on a five elemental theory, Ayurveda works on creating balance through diet and lifestyle. It considers each person a unique combination of the five elements and gives lifestyle tools accordingly.

As the seasons change, as we age, as we experience emotional shifts, Ayurveda works to helps us to find and maintain our equilibrium.  Its primary method of promoting health and longevity is through diet and lifestyle.  Its gives us personalized nutrition. Ayurveda also works with herbs, massage and cleansing techniques to help us heal.

How Can Marma Therapy Help Me?

A Marma Therapy Session Will Help You:

  • Experience deep relaxation, while creating balance in your body.

  • Unlock patterns of stress and holding so that you can heal.

  • Improve circulation and nourish your body, mind and spirit.

Marma Therapy is an ancient Ayurvedic practice developed centuries ago in India. It is essentially Ayurvedic Acupressure. Each Marma point is connected to different energy pathways throughout your body. It is similar to Acupuncture, although no needles are used. Instead, a Marma Therapist uses pressure, vibration and herbal oils to open up blocked energy pathways. Doctor Lad states, "Touching a Marma point changes the body's biochemistry and can unfold radical, alchemical changes in one's makeup. Stimulation of these inner pharmacy pathways signals the body to produce exactly what it needs, including hormones and neurochemicals that heal the body, mind and consciousness."
