Stimulate 4 Marmas & Say Goodbye to Insomnia

Good sleep is as important as good food for human beings. Sleep gives the much needed rest to the mind as it does rejuvenate the body for the next day’s rigors. Lack of sleep makes digestion go awry and throws the metabolic balance out of gear. Unfortunately however, many are unable to get good sleep owing to multifarious reasons. Some others get habituated to undisciplined sleep. And it is such habits that is the root cause for a person’s deteriorating health. Dr. Manu B Menon explains:

“In today’s fast paced world, youngsters have developed the habit of sleeping during the day and spending the nights on their mobile phones, video games, in front of television sets or indulging in extended readings. Consequently they sleep late into the night and wake up well into the day. Such habits affect our physical health adversely with increase in body heat, manifesting in various maladies such as hair fall, impaired eye sight, and stomach disorders such as constipation and hyper-acidity. A combination of such maladies results in weakening of nerves and blood circulation system. Lack of sleep is the root cause for nervous disorders, hypertension, paralytic attacks and stroke. Hence, I would advise all to go to bed as early as possible. Going to bed after 11 pm is not good at all for your health. You are also well advised to get up early say between 5 am and 6 pm when the cosmic energy is at its peak.”

But, this said, it is possible for all to follow Dr.Manu’s advise? Many cannot sleep or stick to these timings even if they want to . The reasons for this are many including mental stress or the sleeping habits inculcated by them over the years. Many take recourse to popping the sleeping pills and this worsens their health further. But there is a way out of this distressing scenario and re-discovering good sleep without taking recourse to pills, liquor or other supplements. The answer, as Dr. Manu B Menon explains, lies in adapting simple marma practices for good sleep (FOLLOW VIDEO):

“Activate the four marmas (I show you know) and you will get good sleep. Peace and tranquility will return to your life. Please follow my demonstration carefully. First marma is the one situated on the middle of your wrist, just on the wrist lines, in both the hands called Manibandha marma. Begin with the marma on the life wrist. Use your left thumb, apply medium pressure on the marma and slowly activate in a circular motion, three times first in the clockwise direction towards right, then anti clockwise the opposite direction towards left and again clockwise towards the right. Follow the same routine on the Manibandha marma on your right wrist.

“The second marma is situated just below the little finger at the junction of the wrist in both your hands. Activiate this marma in both the hands using the thumb of the other hand, Beginning with the left hand, rotate it on medium pressure from the the thumb, three times first clockwise to right, then anti-clockwise to left and then again clockwise to right. Follow the same routine on this marma of your right wrist below the little finger.

“The third marma to good sleep is situated two finger widths from your palm, at the junction of the third finger width (FOLLOW VIDEO). You can activate this marma yourself, going by width of your own fingers. Starting with the left hand, apply medium pressure on the marma using your right thumb and activate it by rotating three times clockwise, anti clockwise and clockwise again in a circular motion. Repeat this on the same marma junction of your right hand.

“The fourth marma is situated at the junctions of the well – below your jawline and above your throat (FOLLOW VIDEO). Applying medium pressure using your thumbs at both the junctions, and press through the aisle of the jawline towards the chin, three times.

“Do this exercise every day for 7 to 14 days two hours before going to bed. You will get good stress free sleep and peace will return to your life. There is no need to continue this exercise after 14 days. However, you may continue if you find it necessary to do so.

Cleanse Your Kidneys off Kidney Stones Through Marma Stimulation

A friend of mine developed severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She immediately consulted a doctor who told her stones have been formed in her kidney and put the fear of life in her adding that she would face health difficulties, if she did not undergo an immediate operation and get the stones removed. You can imagine the rude shock she got. We will get into how my friend handled the situation a little later. But, first let us understand how kidney stones are formed. And what measures should be taken to prevent its formation.

Kidneys are important organs of the body and they perform a crucial, complicated function. Kidneys, shaped as beans, cleanse our blood and eliminates the unwanted particles from the body in the form of urine. A normal human being is born with two kidneys, each 10 cms long, 5 wide and 4 cms in diameter, weighing 150 to 170 grams each. Our kidneys generally become impaired when our body gets dehydrated, meaning when our is bereft of adequate water content. Kidney functioning is impaired also because of substance abuse such as tobacco and alcohol consumption, and drug use, as such habits dehydrate the kidneys. This apart, optimum functioning of our kidneys is hampered if you are a diabetic, and if a person is malnourished.

The first signs of kidney malfunction is announced to modern man by the doctors with the statement that there are stones in our kidneys. What are kidney stones? Simple. These are untreated minerals deposited in our kidneys owing to lack of proper water consumption or hydration activities. To cite an example, if we put sugar and salt in a glass of water, and if this is more than the capacity of the water to dissolve them, you will find these settled in the bottom of the glass. Similarly, the minerals – generally comprising of uric acid and calcium – that our kidneys are not able to treat gets deposited as stone formations, one sticking to the other, initially the size of a grain of sand, and gradually growing bigger and bigger.

Generally, we feel the urge to urinate when 300 to 400 milliliters of water fills up our kidneys. Stones get formed also when we do not pass urine when we get the urge to do so and stifle it over long periods. Functioning of kidneys is impaired also by the many synthetic chemicals which we consume as medications. Formation of stones in the kidney manifests as severe pain in the ribs, slowly radiating downward through to the thighs. Many a times these symptoms are accompanied with fever and vomiting. Only those who experience these excruciating pains will be in the know of its severity. Generally, these symptoms are accompanied by severe fever and vomiting.

But, even while we understand how kidney stones are formed, at this juncture it is appropriate to turn our attention toward do’s and don’ts to protect our kidneys. The soda water and other soft drinks we consume have the potential to impair our kidneys. Phosphoric acid in these drinks drain the calcium in our bones and cause formation of stones in the kidneys. So, if you over indulge in these drinks, this might be the right time to avoid indulging in it any further. On the contrary, you should ensure an intake of at least five to six liters of water each day with equal attention to answering the Nature’s call as and when you develop the urge to urinate. Resisting the urge for far too long is not healthy.

Partaking fresh raw vegetables and following a ‘Satvika diet’ (A sattvic diet is meant to include foods and eating habits that are natural, essential, natural, vital, energy-containing and clean) help keep your kidneys healthy. We also recommend increased use of garlic in your cuisine even as you reduce the intake of sugar and salt. Steer clear of ‘masala’ products to the extend possible. Increase of your intake and use of friends of kidneys such as butter milk, curd, milk of native cows, papaya, mango, apple, banana, carrot, beans, drum stick, tender coconut and gruel of barley. If it is detected that you have stones in your kidneys, stay away from split black gram, green peas, , liquor, cauliflower, potato, basella alba, sour curds, red chilies, brinjal, non vegetarian food and liquor. These eatables and vegetables result in increased formation of kidney stones, worsening your condition.

Black beans, flower comb of banana and banana plant stem possess the power to dissolve kidney stones. We advise you make these a part of your diet in the form of juice or as part of your cuisine along with bitter-gourd , even as you increase the intake of lemon juice, tender coconut water and pineapple. Steer clear of tomato, black-grapes, pumpkin, Lilva Bean, Mushroom and Spinach. Those looking for easy but powerful cure for kidney stones, need not look further away from the Tulsi (holy basil) plant in the courtyard. Tulsi with its acetic and other acids in it is one of the most powerful antidotes and cures against kidney stones. Eat eight to ten leaves of Tulsi, chewing them well along with honey every day and your kidney stones will gradually dissolve.

We also recommend that you drink a glass of a tender coconut on empty stomach every morning, and have another five to six tender coconuts each day, beginning with one half a hour before each meal. End the day with a tender coconut or two before going to bed. This will help the kidneys discharge small stones, of the size of a sand grain, through urine. The bask of the henna plant also has curative properties. Boil the bask well in water, cool it and drink the same after filtering the residues. Your stones will begin to dissolve. Horse gram also possesses similar properties. Soak 50 to 100 mgs of horse gram well in 200 ml of water and boil it. Rinse the water and drink around 25 ml of the water every night before going to bed. Your kidney stones have no option but to dissolve. If you do not take these actions and size of the stone grows unduly big, then you may end up having to undergo an operation.
Now let us get back to the story of my friend. She had developed stones 4 mm in size. Though the doctors suggested operation, she took a second opinion and is on course to having her stones dissolved through medications, home medicines and diet. Finally, once kidney stones are developed, having them dissolved is the only way out. You cannot sell it to Jems & Jewellers anyway. But, a prudent and intelligent way of living is to avoid a lifestyle that would result in formation of stones in the kidneys in the first place.

You can also do it for elders at home.(see video) First, lie down with your face up and arms by your side. Reach the Marma at four finger-width of your palm, above from your belly button , and activate it by pressing your thumb on it and rotating six times to the right and six times to the left, and then again to the right.

Marma Chikitsa - The Ancient Treatment System For Modern Day Health

Friends, hitherto we have presented to you many video capsules on Marma Chikitsa for various ailments alongside various Marma tips by Dr.Manu Menon for your well-being. It is but natural that our presentations should have kindled a raging curiosity in you on the authenticity, veracity and efficacy of treatments offered at Ayur Matam. This video is an attempt to answer your queries.

In today’s world Paralysis is a medical condition afflicting one person in every hundred. A person afflicted with paralysis, unable to tend to himself/herself for basic needs, is virtually at a dead-end of life, unable to even speak or walk around all by themselves. The person you see walking towards the camera on your screen thought no different. He had tried all treatments he was told about before reaching Ayur Matam at Mysore. Listen to the transformation he underwent in his own words: “My is Nagaraj. I am a native of Bijapur. I suffered a stroke four years ago. I kept wondering why I had suffered a stroke and continued by routine life while on medications. But, there was no improvement in my condition. Then, I came to know of Ayur Matam. I took an appointment and came along with my uncle for a consultation with Dr. Manu Menon. I explained my medical history and condition to him and after due examination, I underwent 7 days of Marama Chikitsa. After seven days, I felt my body was at ease and I began to twiddle my fingers, and slightly move hands and legs. Following the treatments here, I am now much better, able to move my leg leg and arms.” Ayur Matam has re-kindled hopes of good life in Nagaraj, who is physically now near normal.

Here is another patient, let us hear his story. This youngster works as a manager in the prestigious nationalized bank. Long hours at the bank being seated in the same position saw him developing a stiff back at the spine. Visits to Allopathy doctors were of no avail and they finally recommended surgery. Aghast, he began looking for alternatives and reached Ayur Matam. After marma treatments under the stewardship of Dr. Manu Menon his back pain has vanished and he is fully normal. “I have had this spinal chord problem since the last four to five years. A recent MRI revealed that I have four bulges, at L3, L4 and at C5, C6. I was on medications without much relief when I met Dr.Manu. He advised me to take treatment for 16 days. Earlier Allopathy medications used to generate a lot of heat in my body and treatments helped very little in reducing my pain. But, at Aur Matam, I began feeling the changes with the medications itself, and my problems were reduced.”

If this is the story of the bank manager, the persons you see here is a physical education teacher whose health suddenly went into the tail spin. He came to know of Ayur Matam through the social media and reached the Hospital. Let us hear what followed in his own words:

“My name is Srinivas and I work as a physical education director at Government first grade college Honnavar. An MRI report three to four years ago revealed that I have disc compression. Though I was doing my exercises, I was unable to walk long distances and, my thigh and half muscles began to go stiff. I could feel excruciating pain and could not take part in any games. But, I managed somehow doing certain exercises. When the summer holidays came along, I came to know of Ayur Matam through some U Tube videos which made me very happy. I reached here 15 days ago and underwent an interim treatment. I came again for the long term treatment, and I am very happy that I am getting good treatment. Hats off to Dr.Manu who has created an atmosphere of high energy. Ayur Matam has an excellent faculty of the therapists and doctors. It is a very lovely home atmosphere.”

So friends, you have now seen it for yourself. Marma Chikitsa is a very ancient 5000 year old scientific treatment system of our land, encompassing in its fold cures for many ailments for which there is not treatment in modern medicine. Dr. Manu Menon is on a mission to expand the reach of this ancient medicinal system to more demographics.

Where Modern Medicine Failed, Marma Chikitsa Saved This Techie

It is a generally held belief that medical services and doctors of United States of America and the Western nations are far superior to the medical systems, native to India. We are eager to run and get admitted to a modern nursing home even at the slightest hint of ill health. Hear this story of a software couple – who held similar misconceptions about US medical system and lost earnings to the tune of a few lakhs – and it will surprise you. But, first let us understand, what was the medical condition that made them look for treatment in the United States in the first place. Let us hear from them, and also as to where they finally found the solution to their condition:

“My name is Swetha and I am addressing you from Ayur Matam, Mysore. I am a software engineer at Infosys, and am based in the US since the last four years. I suffered a head on fall, almost 20 stairs, slipping from the first step and tumbling down the staircase from our house on the first floor, when I was leaving for office. Following the fall, I experienced excruciating pain on the right side of the head. I suffered injuries on the health, legs and hand too.” Adds Rajesh, Swetha’s husband: “With the fall happening on the eve of the visit to US, we thought we will get better treatment there anyway compared to India and so we visited many hospitals and doctors. They all gave treatments and we lost a few lakhs from our earnings.” Swetha: “We spent around Rs.10 to Rs.12 lakhs. But, it was of no use.” Rajesh: “Her treatments continued, over a period of one to two years. But, it was of no avail. Instead, she developed many side effects from the medications and also gained weight. Her face became so contorted that I could not look at her.” Swetha: “The treatments, instead of making me well again, resulted in the fall manifesting itself as multiple problems. I developed heart issues; severe back pain making it impossible for me to sit and work; and experienced severe bouts of headache.” Rajesh: “It was around this time that we came to know of Dr.Manu Menon. We went and personally met a few who had benefited from treatment at Ayur Matam. We understood the problems they had been treated for and the benefits they had received.” Swetha: “Armed with information, I came to Ayur Matam and met Dr.Manu. Even before I could fully explain my condition, Dr.Manu examined a few marma points and explained to me all that I was facing. I immediately developed faith in him and his treatments. Now, I am undergoing treatment at Ayur Matam. I have been cured of my bouts of headache and intolerance to sound. Earlier, I could not stand having a conversation with somebody. My leg pain has also reduced.” Rajesh: “Swetha’s face had become….It had become all dark and black. Now, after 15 days of treatment, her looks have improved greatly. She is almost looking like her original self. I am optimistic that she would become completely normal after two months of total rest after the treatment as assured by the doctors. I hope it well happen and am praying for the best.” Swetha: ” I am feeling a lot better”. This is the power of ancient Indian medical systems and a system like Marma chikitsa. The happiness and contentment you see on the face of this couple today is the reflection of the power of ancient medical system such as marma.

Sukha Marma Chikitsa, Answer to 'Neck Woes' of 21st Century Life

Friends, are you always on your cell phone? Can we call you an addict? Is your eyes and hands always hovering on the cell phone? If you yes, it is confirmed. You have invited trouble onto yourself. You will disrupt the balance of your neck and back. But, it is not just the use of cell phones. We have developed many other habits such as watching TV reclining on a sofa, spending hours on end with a tab or a laptop. Software professionals are virtually wrung dry by companies with their work from home lure. And Cervical Spondylosis is onset. Explains Dr.Manu Menon: “Many working professionals today also read newspapers or answer cell phones which travelling in their cars. The constant rocking movement of the neck in a set downward angle results in the disc at the neck slipping and consequently, constricting the nerves. This hampers the circulation of blood to the brain and hence, less oxygen supply, resulting in high blood pressure and other maladies.”

Once this disorganized lifestyle takes hold, a host of maladies led by Cervical Spondylosis start manifesting in you. The lack of proper supply of oxygen to the brain, disc slippages in the neck and nerve compression, causes Spondylosis. Over to Ayur Matam Managing Director and Marma Vaidya Dr. Manu, ” A sudden surge in the blood flow when blood pressure suddenly shoots up or alternatively a dearth of Oxygen supply to the brain causes blocks, triggering a stroke incapacitating many faculties. Hence, we see an ever increasing number of patients suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia. We believe that Marma Chikitsa along with other appropriate supplementary Ayurveda therapies, using Panchakarma procedures, and medicines, can effectively treat such musculo-skeletal or neurological impairments of the neck. We remove the blockage to an impaired nerve by correcting its root compression; slip a truant disc back in place; and ensure smooth flow of Oxygen to the brain. This activates faculties like memory in patients. The treatment differs from individual to individual depending on their body type, which essentially are three as per Ayurveda parameters. The percentage of recovery also varies from patient to patient and depends on the peculiarities of afflictions. For example, a Kapha dominant patient may exhibit severe cold, sneezing or Asthama. The patient would be treated accordingly for these disorders. Similarly, there would be variation in the condition of others and would be treated accordingly. The duration of treatments vary, depending on an individual and his condition, from 9, 14, 17 to 21 days. And, if a patient takes complete rest without straining his or her neck for two to three months after the treatment, we guarantee complete recovery without having to undergo surgery.”

Friends, Please note that we end up with memory loss, and terminal diseases like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson, only because of our unhealthy technology lifestyle. But, in today’s world, you cannot give up on technology either. The solution is simple. Regular service for the human body, like we service our vehicle, electronic devices and other household goods. Human body requires a regular service, once a month or once in two months. This rejuvenation treatment is called Kayakalpa chikitsa, and is given at Marma treatment centres as ‘Sukha-marma’. This treatment will fill you with fervent energy, rejuvenate your immunity systems; and act as a shield protecting your back, neck and your marmas.
So, worry no more. You can use your cell phone or be on your lap top to your heart’s content. Only remember to visit Ayur Matam once a month and undergo a Sukha-Marma to put the discs, nerves and marmas in its place, and invigorate yourself with renewed energy. And remain fit as a fiddle.
