In Ayurveda classics, Marma is illustrated as the vital point in the human body and its knowledge plays an im- portant role in Sharir Rachana. Marma was first documented by Acharya Charak but the detailed description of Marma Sharir is available in Sushruta Samhita. Acharya Sushruta stated every aspect of Marma like definition, types, signs, and symptoms related to injury of Marma. Marma is a very important structure present in the body which causes pain or even death when getting injured. According to Acharya Sushruta in the description of Eka- dash Indriya Hasta and Paad are included under the five Karmendriya and their function is mentioned as Aadan and Vihar respectively and Hasta (hand) is considered as the most important/superior Yantra among all the Yan- tras by Acharya Susruta. Although each part of the human body is important still extremities possess the most importance as all body activities depend on limbs as without limbs existence of the human body is hard to imag- ine. So Anatomical interpretation of Urdhva Shakhagata Snayu Marma along with its clinical importance is very much needed in the present era. An attempt has been made to explore structures present in Urdhva Shakhagata Snayu Marma through cadaveric dissection. Keywords: Ekadash Indriya, Snayu Marma, Yantra.

Important Structure

Updhatus are important physiological units and are derived from Dhatus and resemble Dhatus in terms of structure, function and nature. Dhatus are the seven basic fundamental principles that support the basic structure which hold the bodily elements together and the functioning of the body. Meda dhatu is fourth among seven dhatus. During the process of metabolism and formation of Meda Dhatu, ligaments (snayu) are formed as metabolic byproducts (upadhatu). Snayu is the most important structure of the human body which helps to maintain the weight carrying capacity of the joint and plays a crucial role during the movement of the joint. The Snayu is much similar to the ligament. Any injury to the ligament is known as a sprain. Sprain is most common in sportsmen and hard workers. Common ligamental injuries are to the knee, ankle, wrist, thumb, neck or back ligament with ankle injury being the most commonly occurring injury. So, the complete knowledge of snayu very essential to prevent such injuries and certain disease conditions. Keywords: Updhatu, Meda Dhatu, Snayu

Exercise Muscle

Skeletal muscles are the largest organ in the human body, making up 40–50% of the total human body weight. This work is devoted to the study of physical activity on the athlete’s body. Given that the muscular system is more multifunctional than previously thought, and is able to aff ect many systems of the body through the synthesis and secretion of cytokines-classical regulators of the immune system, classifi ed as myokines. In this review article, we summarize our current knowledge of the main identifi ed and characterized myokines, focusing on their biological activity and functions. Through regular exercise, muscle-induced factors called myokines can exert and play an important role in protecting against many diseases.

Ayurveda Samhita describes various types of Visha such as Sthavara Visha (Inanimate poison), Jangama Visha (Animate poison) and Kritima Visha. These types of Visha, when it enters into the body, it passes through the different Dhatus and give rise to different stages of Vega in the body and according to these Vegas, different types of signs and symptoms appear on the body. The main aim of this review article is to compile and evaluate the concept of Visha Vega and their sign & symptoms. All the descriptions of Visha Vega mentioned in different Ayurvedic texts were critically analyzed and discussed to check their relation. After analysis, it is observed that all the symptoms which appear during entering of the Visha are mainly due to their Vegas. As gradually stages of Vega progresses, their signs and symptoms gradually become more severe. After critically analyzed it is concluded that if we diagnosed the different Vegas of Visha  at the right time, we could treat those patients better.

The human body has important digestive organs such as the stomach. One of the stomach diseases that is gastritis or ulcers has indeed begun to be experienced due to a lack of knowledge about the factors that cause gastritis and behavior to prevent the occurrence of gastritis. Gastritis known as ulcer disease is an inflammation or bleeding in the mucosa of the stomach caused by irritants, infections, and irregularities in the diet. The method used is a literature review article by reviewing 7 journals published from 2010-2020 about the effect of fasting on the health of the stomach digestive system conducted in April 2020. The results of changing dietary patterns during fasting cause various changes in the body, especially in the digestive tract. Fasting gives the digestive system time to rest, so it can reduce the risk or cure health problems indigestion. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between diet, knowledge, and stress to the incidence of gastritis. While in the behavior of coffee consumption and sex there is no association with the incidence of gastritis.

Basic Blocks

In Ayurveda, there are three basic blocks upon which the human body stands, these are Dosha, Dhatu and Mala. Dhatus are the main which perform the function of holding together the bodily elements. There are seven Dhatu in person; these are Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa, Meda, Asthi, Majja and Shukra. As Mamsa Dhatu is very important component of our body and its Moola Sthana are Twacha and Snayu. Mamsa is one of the seven constructive build icons of body namely Dhatus. It is widely accepted by all the Ayurvedic scholars who named it as Pishit, Taras, Palal, Raktateja, Medaskruta, Kravyam, Aamisha and so on. It helps in formation of Mamsa Dhatu in the body with its principle site in body as muscles, tendons and skin. According to Ayurveda, there are seven Dhatu in person; these are Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa, Meda, Asthi, Majja and Shukra. These Dhatu are defined as per their function. These are important for healthy state of the body. Mamsa Dhatu is third one in the sequence of seven Dhatu.

Ayurveda emphasizes on maintenance of health in a healthy individual and treating the diseased ones. The human body comprises Tridosha, Saptadhatu, Trimala (structural and functional entities of the body). Sharira (body) is a mula for health as well as disease. Srotas (body channels) are those channels that transport and transform the sub- stances to respective tissues, cells of the human body required for life sustenance. As the Dhatu’s are classified as Sthayi and Asthayi dhatu, based on the Aahara (food) consumed the respective Dosha Utpatti (biotransformation) takes place leading to Saara Kitta Vibhajana (formation of metabolic nutrients and waste). Rasa dhatu is an Asthayi Dhatu which is predominant of Jala Mahabhuta. From the Aahara Rasa, Rasa Dhatu is formed which is the prime Dhatu resulting in the development of subsequent dhatus of the sharira. Rasa Saara Purusha is en- dowed with Aayushmanta (longer life span) and Aarogya (health). As Rasadhatu Dusti Janya Vikaras are abun- dant in our clinics, understanding of Rasavaha Srotodusti Nidana (causative factor) and Lakshana (signs and symptoms) in a patient with a relevant examination by means of Trividha Pariksha and prescribing appropriate Chikitsa (treatment) by understanding Guna -Karma principle is the need of the hour. Keywords: Rasavaha Srotas (lymph channels), Pariksha (examination), Chikitsa (treatment)

Injury Causes

Marma is a vital point of the body where trauma or injury may cause a various range of signs and symptoms from Ruja (pain) to even death. Ayurvedic Acharya’s has explained 107 Marma” that are present in the anterior and posterior aspect of the human body. Depending upon the effect of injury on Marma is five types like Sadhyo pranhara, Kalantara pranhara, Vishlyaghna, Vaikalykara & Rujakara Marma. Out of them, Vaikalykar Marma are the points where an injury causes structural or functional deformity. Another type of classification of Marma has also been made as Mamsa (muscle) marma, Sira (artery/vein) marma, Snayu (ligament) marma, Asthi (bone) marma and Sandhi (joint) marma. The Vitap Marma is placed under the Snayu Marma by Acharya Sushrut and Sira Marma by Acharya Vaghbhata. Vitap Marma is situated between Vankshan (Groin) and Vrishna (Testes) and the Viddha lakshan (symptoms of trauma) is Shandata (impotency) and Alpashukrata (oligospermia). The struc- ture present at this point is the inguinal canal. The clinical importance of the inguinal canal is related to the inguinal hernia. Direct or indirect Injury at this particular point affects the physiology of the reproductive system and may cause sterility, which is similar to Viddha lakshan of Vitap marma as described by Sushrut. Keywords: Vitap marma, Vaikalyakar marma, Inguinal canal, Spermatic cord, round ligament

Contemporary validation is the need of the hour when it comes to Ayurveda. Discrepancy in theories of Ayurveda and contemporary science makes this validation quite challenging. The anatomical terms mentioned in the classical texts need to be deciphered appropriately as the impact of these ideas are not just limited to a structure but to its physiological, surgical, pathological and surgical aspects. The term Snayu has always been a controversial structure when it comes to an anatomical validation. The objective of this review article is to correlate Snayu and its types to structures in the human body on the basis of cadaveric dissection through observation and inference. The methodology involved is a thorough literary review on structure and location of Snayu and its comparison to the anatomical structure in the background of dissection techniques and observation methods used in the ancient texts. It was observed that Snayu can be correlated to fibrous structures of human body like fascia, ligaments, tendons, aponeurosis etc.

Conceptual Study

In Ayurveda, the role of Acharya Sushruta is very important. Acharya Sushruta was not only one of the earliest pioneers of surgery in the world but also one among the earliest to study the human body. Acharya Sushruta was the first in the field of Ayurveda who has defined the clinical importance of structural components of the body like Asthi (Bones), Jala (plexus), Kurcha (brush like structure), Sira (vein), Dhamni (artery), Snayu, etc. Snayu is one of the important anatomical structures in the human body which is strong and holds all the joints for the purposeful function. Similar to Snayu, in modern anatomy, ligaments and tendons are described as human structures which are attached bone to bone and muscle to bone respectively. All the joints are bound together by Snayu. According to shape and location the Snayu are of four types: Pratanvati, Vritta, Sushira & Prithula. Snayu are very much similar to ligaments, so excessive stretching, tearing or injury to ligaments causes severe pain. Ligament injuries are the most common amongst the athletes or sports person. Common ligamental injuries are to the knee, ankle, wrist, thumb, neck or back ligament with ankle injury being the most common occurring injury. Keywords: Snayu, Ligaments, Injuries.

The Relationship

Posture is commonly perceived as the relationship between the segments of the human body upright. Certain parts of the body such as the cephalic extremity, neck, torso, upper and lower limbs are involved in the final posture of the body. Musculoskeletal instabilities and reduced postural control lead to the installation of nonstructural posture deviations in all 3 anatomical planes. When we talk about the sagittal plane, it was concluded that there are 4 main types of posture deviation: hyperlordotic posture, kyphotic posture, rectitude and "sway-back" posture.Pilates method has become in the last decade a much more popular formof exercise used in rehabilitation. The Pilates method is frequently prescribed to people with low back pain due to their orientation on the stabilizing muscles of the pelvis. Pilates exercise is thus theorized to help reactivate the muscles and, by doingso, increases lumbar support, reduces pain, and improves body alignment.
