Marma Ayurvedic Skin Care - Yoga Village

Marma means secret, hidden or vital. Marma points are points on the surface of the body where Prana or life energy collects and where consciousness and the physical body meet. By gently massaging them it is possible to release toxins caused by the affect of mind or physical causes of stress.

The face is cleansed thoroughly with a herbal mixture and subsequently steam or ice is applied to the face. This is followed by a gentle massage of Marma points on the face and scalp with suitable herbal oils. It is a deeply relaxing process. Facial Marma releases stress from the facial muscles. It is very good for fatigued eyes and gives good rest to the mind. Finally, the facial skin is toned with a nourishing herbal face pack.
