Varmam, an ancient Siddha science, describes vital points working in conjuncture with 10 vayus, which are vital for physiological functioning. The imbalance of these vayus leads to various pathological processes. Siddhas practice a unique Varma manipulation in the earlier stages of the disease in regulating these vayus to avoid further progression of the disease. That is called “Thiruvadi Dasa Vayu Pinnal” technique. Dasa Vayu Pinnal is a traditional Varmam maneuver performed in and around umbilicus and finally draining the lymphatic system toward the lower limb. Arranging these deranged vayus in appropriate direction will curb the disease progression. |
