Marma Therapy
ISHTA’s signature Marma therapy is drawn from a traditional Ayurvedic bodywork which clears stress from the muscles, soft tissues, fascia, and vital points of the body. Marma Therapy opens up strangled Marma points, allowing the intelligence of the different bodily systems to regain their homeostasis. Marma therapy also restores one’s perspective on life to a point of clarity, insight, and inspiration.
