The Ayurvedic massage generally focuses on the marma (pressure) points of the body. Some of the marma points of the body are Adhipati (top of forehead), Sthapani (third eye) and Apanga (side of eyebrow). These are the main points of the body and it is believed that applying pressure on it can cure several diseases. Yoga is considered to be a very essential part of Ayurvedic massage therapy.

It originated in India over hundreds of years ago and is still believed to be one of the most effective means of alleviating body ailments. Apart from the massage, Ayurvedic massage therapy also includes meditation, herbal remedies and
