Marma chikitsa or marma therapy utilizes 108 points that sustain the energy flow throughout the
body. Marma points are doors or pathways to the inner pharmacy of the body. By touching these
points we activate the body’s silent biochemical laboratory by changes that occur in the body’s
biochemistry. 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. They are also identified as neurolymphatic points, stimulating the removal of
lymph and enhancing the efficiency of the body’s organs.
