According to varma theory, there are points in the body which are storing points of Prana vayu (vital energy), through which energy is transmitted to various parts of the body and all the functions of the body are mediated.

These points when stimulated increase the flow of energy, heal disease or boost the immune mechanism.

To stimulate the varma points Pressure should be applied in these points at a particular and given strength as mentioned in Varma literature.  However, the same points if wrongly activated may cause pathological changes or diseases and may even result in death. Trauma or injury to tissue or organs around these vital points is harmful and cause diseases which are detailed in Varma texts. The practice and method of pressing the varmam points need a great expertise and even a slight deviation may cause adverse results or danger

This healing application called ‘Varma Vaidhiyam’ is specially used to treat patients suffering from nerve, bone and Joint disorders and disorders resulting from any kind of trauma.
