In ancient Vedic times, marma points were called bindu -- a dot, secret dot or mystic point. Like a door or pathway, activating a marma point opens into the inner pharmacy of the body. The body is a silent, universal, biochemical laboratory -- operating every moment to interpret and transform arising events. Touching a marma point changes the body's biochemistry and can unfold radical, alchemical change 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. This deep dimension of marma therapy has the potential to unfold spiritual healing. Review: Excellent! A valuable resource book for anyone studying marma ... - Excellent! A valuable resource book for anyone studying marma points. The subject is broken down into easy to understand sections that are designed as quick reference or revision notes and there is additional information throughout the book. I bought the hardback version so that it would last longer and I'm glad I did - the pages will be well thumbed by the time I've finished with it! Review: Need to Have this one - If you are a TCM or an Ayurvedic therapist need to have this book. In my TCM practice I sometime puncture Marma points with classic acupunture points together. Main Marmas have deeper effect as I have seen. This book is good for Yoga teachers, and aroma therapist as well. Another good book from Dr. Vasant Lad,

Useful
As a Naturopath, I find it extremely useful. I use it together with David Frawley's book on Marma Therapy as some of the Marma points are different in the two texts. It would be good if both authors collaborated in writing a book on Marma together as they have regarding herbology in the past.

Deep knowledge shared in an accessible way; description of Marmani localization and action is clear and detailed. the parallelism between the TCM and Ayurveda provides you with a broader view on the subject.

Ottimo testo sui punti marma
Scritto da un famoso medico indiano, è un testo fondamentale per chi studia Ayurveda ma anche per chi si approccia con curiosità a questa antica medicina e vuole conoscere i punti marma comparati con i punti della Medicina cinese.

Espectacular
Muy buen libro. Leí previamente el libro de otro autor sobre puntos marma que me dejó con dudas sobre la "localización exacta" de algunos puntos marma y me las he aclarado con este. Es un libro súper interesante, completo, lleno de fotos y a color. Parece un libro de texto de colegio, es grande (tamaño folio), de verdad, para quien le interese el tema de los puntos marma este libro/autor es muy bueno. También da mucha información complementaria, y hace una relación directa entre los puntos marma y los puntos de acupuntura que son cercanos o coinciden, lo cual también da mucha información extra, tanto para su localización, como para sus funciones. Una maravilla de libro. Lo único malo es lo de que esté en inglés y no lo hayan traducido aún al español. La verdad que no tiene un nivel muy alto de inglés, pero si se necesita más o menos un nivel medio tirando a alto como para que se te haga soportable leerlo en inglés. Yo me considero nivel medio/alto y busco en el diccionario una media de 9 palabras por hoja. Entiendo que esto ya depende del interés del lector, yo no creo que pudiera hacer esto mismo con otros libros, pero este me tiene lo suficientemente enganchada como para tener la paciencia de hacerlo. En resumen, para mi es muy buen libro.
