MARMA CHIKITSA: AYURVEDIC ACUPRESSURE-ENERGY TREATMENT
MARMA CHIKITSA: AYURVEDIC ACUPRESSURE-ENERGY TREATMENT
A marma point is a portal of prana or vital life-force. They are junctures on the body where two or more types of tissue meet and act as the access points of the subtle energy body. When imbalances block the movement of free-flowing energy in the body, the result is stagnation. This can lead to physical and mental discomfort and dis-ease.
This science is based on the manipulation of these points to access shifts in body, mind, and consciousness. A light or medium pressure is applied to the points using the fingers, a therapy wand or a tuning fork.
Marma therapy is useful in : pain, stress, tension, energetic or emotional issues, balancing digestion, clearing toxicity, and calming the mind.

NETRA TARPANA: EYE NOURISHMENT
NETRA TARPANA: EYE NOURISHMENT
Netra (eye) Tarpana (nourishment) is an Ayurvedic therapy used for issues of the eye. The eye is an organ, and acts as a gateway to the mind and nervous system, so this treatment not only nourishes the eye itself, but is also beneficial for the nervous system and mind. Localized marma is done and then the eye is nourished with warm ghee during this calming therapy.

Ayurveda, at its heart, is the living embodiment of intuitive wisdom. I guide you to tune into that wisdom and learn to listen, adapt, and respond to the changing nature of your body and life.
I teach you how to take control of your health and become your own best healer. So that you CAN…

You are not alone, I’ve been there too…
I spent the majority of my teens and early adult life struggling with my health. My body was deeply in need of healing and it was so hard to find answers or clarity.
Countless doctors prescribed me medications to deal with depression, hormonal imbalances, insomnia and digestive problems.
Never once did anyone inquire about my diet, lifestyle or stress that was building in my life. No one was looking for the root to my imbalances.
I knew something needed to change. So I began to try all the things...I hopped from one health trend to the next looking for that sweet spot.
I cleaned up my diet, went raw, went vegan, did juice cleanses, soup cleanses, YOU NAME IT! I ran everyday, became a yoga instructor and incorporated affirmation & meditation.
Slowly things improved, but even when I was doing “all the right things” and eating all the “healthy foods,” I still was not feeling balanced.
So much gratitude for my Teacher Dr. Vasant Lad
Ayurveda taught me about my constitution and how to care for my unique needs.
By implementing simple & accessible practices into my daily life, aligning with my true nature and the world around me, my health completely transformed.
I healed years of absent periods & painful cystic breasts. I shifted from restrictive dieting to intuitive and nourishing eating. I learned that food is medicine and that I am the creator of my health & happiness.
I learned that I am my best healer.
And now I will guide you to do that!
Then, I discovered Ayurveda.
And everything changed.
You do not have to be perfect or give up everything that you love to heal and be in balance.
Are you doing all the right things but not seeing the results you want?
Do you feel overwhelmed by conflicting information on diets and wellness?
Are you ready to improve your health but need a plan?
You are in the right place
