Marma Manual Therapy® Level 1 Two Day Training
“Foundations for Energy Healing & Self Care”
San Diego, CA | June 19 + 20, 2021
What is Marma Manual Therapy®?
This course teaches health professionals and therapists how to locate, assess and treat vital points on the body known in the Ayurvedic healing tradition as Marma Points. Participants will learn the anatomical location, physical assessment, and clinical treatment approaches to the major marma points, with an emphasis on manual therapy techniques. Marma therapy is referenced in classic Ayurvedic texts and closely relates to modern myofasical and acupressure techniques. Marma points are anatomically related to bone, muscle, fascia, vessels, and nerves. Manual therapy to the connective tissue matrix related to specific marma points can have major implications for therapists, healers, bodyworkers and energy practitioners for improving outcomes. These vital connective tissue points have many practical functions that affect the physical body, including therapeutic applications practitioners can use to relieve pain, impel blood flow, stimulate immunity, soft tissue extensibility, enhance parasympathetic response , and deepen muscle relaxation. Once the proper marma points are learned they can be applied in most clinical and healing settings using a variety of tools such as manual therapy, acupressure, tuning forks, essential oils, color therapy, light therapy, and other physical and energy medicine modalities.
