Our exclusive Sports Marma massage in Cambridge is recommend for keen athletes and sports men and women who want to excel in their sports. It is a vital tool to heal tissues and perhaps more importantly prevent injury by expanding prana or the vital life force within you.
A marma is a vital energy point in the body which holds prana (prana is known as "chi" in Chinese). There are more than a hundred in your body. They are similar to accupressure points and relate to specific internal organs or body systems. A marma point occurs when flesh, veins, arteries, tendons and bones meet up. A marma is a bridge between your physical body and mind with your spiritual nature.
- The first session will consist of a lengthy consultation to determine your Ayurvedic dosha and establish if and where "ama" or toxins are present. Your medical history and any presenting injuries will also be considered. Neena will then prescribe the correct oils and identify the appropriate energy centres and marmas you need to be activated for your unique body type and condition.
- Our treatment begins with a ceremony.
- Your sports marma massage will be carried out on a mat on the floor.
- This is not a massage where you just lie there - it is interactive and requires you to move in to different postures. You will start by lying on the floor and will finish sitting up.
- Long strokes - often criss crossing your body will be interspersed with application of pressure in certain areas of your skin.
- Our sports marma massage will activate many of the 100+ marmas in your body and face to release blockages, improve blood circulation and the flow of energy (prana) in your body.
- It is advisable to drink plenty of warm water after a treatment and to keep your muscles warm - therefore please bring warm clothes to wear to cover your body.
- To get the maximum benefit of this treatment a series of 8 to 12 consecutive sports marma massages are recommended. If you pay for them in advance, you will save money too.
