ABSTRACT
Ayurveda is a standardised science of living being which is in existence since archaic times. In recent year there has been lot of research in Ayurveda but still some of the concepts are left behind just as one of them is Marma. A Marma point is the coupling place of Mamsa, Sira, Snayu, Asthi, Sandhi. The detailed knowledge of Marma and Marma therapy has been mentioned in Sushruta Samhita and Varman Chikitsa in Siddha medicine respectively. The present article explored its application as a therapeutic procedure (Marma Therapy), necessity of marma therapy and its importance. Still India has low socio economic population which cannot afford expensive treatment for aliments like headache, backache etc so this therapy has the potential with low cost to fulfil the need. Keywords: Ayurveda, Marma, Marma therapy, Prana
