Siddha Varma/Marma Treatment in Tripunithura
Traditional pain relief and healing through the body’s vital points, given by Mahesh Gurukkal at Sree Rudra Kalari, Tripunithura, Kochi.
Rooted in the Siddha tradition, Varma/Marma treatment works on the body’s vital points with skilled hands and herbal oils to relieve pain, release stiffness, restore movement, and support the body’s own healing. Every treatment is planned after the Gurukkal understands your condition.
Conditions we treat
Sciatica
Pain, tingling, or numbness running from the lower back through the hip and down the leg. Treatment focuses on the lower back, hip, and leg marma points to relieve pressure and pain along the nerve path.
Spondylitis: cervical and lumbar
Neck and back stiffness, pain spreading to the shoulders or arms, and reduced movement linked to cervical or lumbar spondylitis. Regular sessions aim to reduce pain and improve flexibility of the neck and spine.
Neck pain
Stiff neck, pain from posture or sleeping position, and tension headaches from tight neck and shoulder muscles.
Frozen shoulder
Painful, stiff shoulders with limited movement. Gradual marma work and massage help loosen the joint and recover range of motion.
Joint pain
Knee, ankle, wrist, and elbow pain and stiffness, including old sprains that have not healed fully.
Sports injury recovery
Sprains, muscle strains and pulls, ligament injuries, tennis and golfer’s elbow, runner’s knee, and recurring pain from football, cricket, running, gym training, and other sports. Marma treatment and oil massage help reduce pain and swelling, release tight muscles, and restore strength and range of movement so you can return to your sport safely.
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain in the hand, wrist, and fingers, common among people who type, use a mouse or phone for long hours, or do repetitive hand work. Treatment works on the wrist, forearm, neck, and shoulder to ease pressure and restore comfort and grip.
Posture syndrome and posture-related problems
Postural syndrome develops from long hours of sitting, desk work, phone use (“text neck”), and driving. It shows up as rounded shoulders, forward head posture, upper back tightness, neck and shoulder strain, and lower back ache. Marma treatment releases the tight muscles and rebalances the body, and the Gurukkal can suggest simple corrective movements drawn from kalari practice to keep the problem from returning.
Paralysis recovery support
Traditional marma therapy to support movement, circulation, and strength during recovery from paralysis, alongside the care of your doctor. Please consult the Gurukkal first, and bring your medical reports.
Sarvanga Thadaval: full-body pain relief massage
