Anatomical Study of Koorpara Marma Using Cadaveric Dissection Method
Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Marma is vital point in the body. Total number of marmas is 107. Sushrutacharya have mentioned marma concept in Sharirsthan 6th adhyaya. Vagbhatacharya have also elaborated the concept of marma in Ashtang Hriday sharirsthan 4th adhyaya. Both the aacharyas have mentioned various types of marma. The classification is based on four types by Sushrutacharya. It is given as marmabhed as per Shadanga, Rachana, Parinam and Pariman. Rachanatmak classification of marma is based on five elements as Mansa, Sira, Snayu, Asthi and Sandhi. According to the basic definition of marma as per sushrutacharya in the sixth adhyaya of sharirsthan, the marma is the site where mansa, sira, snayu, asthi and sandhi are collectively present. Koorpara marma is present in the urdhwashakha of sharir in between arm and forearm. So, it is necessary to see the basic components as per the definition of marma given by Sushrutacharya with the help of cadaveric dissection method. So this can actually identifies the modern correlation of these five basic structures.
