Abstract

Snayugat Vikara, a category of musculoskeletal disorders in Ayurveda, presents various challenges to those who suffer from its debilitating effects. Tennis elbow, a prevalent condition within this category, often causes pain and discomfort in the lateral epicondyle of the elbow. Marma Chikitsa, an ancient Ayurvedic healing system, has emerged as a promising complementary approach in managing Snayugata Vikara, with a particular focus on tennis elbow. This abstract delves into the role of Marma Chikitsa in addressing tennis elbow and its potential to enhance pain relief, improve mobility, and promote holistic well-being. By targeting specific marma points and manipulating them effectively, Marma Chikitsa can provide a valuable addition to conventional treatment modalities, offering a more comprehensive and integrative approach to the management of tennis elbow and related musculoskeletal conditions.
