The marma points chart

The chart used in teaching, and the piece that walks through what each of the 108 points is for.

  • The chart of marma points on the body used in teaching at Aithein
    The marma chart used on the Siddha Marma Points course.

What a marma point is

A marma is a point where flesh, veins, arteries, tendons, bone and joints meet — a junction, and therefore a place where pressure does more than it would elsewhere. The tradition counts 107 of them on the body, with the mind as the 108th.

The chart is a map, not a syllabus. Knowing where the points are is the easy half; knowing how much pressure, in what order, and when not to touch one at all, is what the course is for.
