Marma Massage 2 Hrs/ COST: $250

Marmani is a Sanskrit term, plural of Marma; a set of energy points found on the surface of the body. Marmani are connected to deeper, subtle pathways within the body known as nadis. In Ayurveda, marmani are used as both a diagnostic and therapeutic tool for determining treatment.

Marmani points are vital for health and wellbeing, as they contain prana (vital life force energy). According to Ayurvedic texts the human body has between 108 and 117 marmani points.

According to Ayurveda, ill-health, disease or imbalance may result from blocked marmani points, as this prevents the free-flow of prana. Each individual marma point is associated with a specific organ or emotion, and so restoring a healthy flow of energy within this channel is the basis of restoring good health.

Marmani therapy involves stimulating these points via massage in clockwise and counter-clockwise movements.





Shirodara (FULL NERVOUS SYSTEM BALANCING OIL STREAM) COST: $175

Shirodara is a 45 minute treatment where a continuous flow of warm herbal oil or milk is received over the 3rd eye and forehead, allowing you to transition into a peaceful and relaxed state of being. Helpful in balancing the emotions, dissolving stress, quieting the mind and pacifying insomnia, it can induce a state similar to that of a trance, creating profound relaxation of the mind and body. Shirodhara is even more effective when taken after abyhanga. In Jodi's style Marma (powerful yogic accupressure) will be applied prior to oil drip to make sure all channels are open ensuring a deeper experience in the nervous system.

Amanda Digiovanna- Owner/Director- Revolution Yoga

I began my personal Yoga practice over 16 years ago after my mother heralded its ability to relieve her scoliosis and sciatica symptoms. The practice stayed with me ever since helping me through life’s trials and tribulations. While studying to receive my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University at Albany I worked three years as an Emergency Medical Technician for New York State and Medical Assistant for a local Cardiology practice.The most important thing I learned from all of my experience is that the best path to good health is prevention.

Yoga is a process tediously tweaked over thousands of years and could not be a more wholesome approach to prevention. Yoga asana (physical practice) teaches the body to detoxify, strengthen, align, relax and most importantly heal itself. Yoga philosophy teaches the mind the tools it needs to face anything and emerge contented and happy. At Revolution Yoga we weave these practices together with the science of Ayurveda( Yoga's sister science) in every class balancing the body according to season and personal constitution to bring balance and help prevent disease.

After college graduation the theme of my life’s work remained the same. I wanted to help people, but its agents shifted slightly. I wanted to help people prevent health problems, I wanted to teach people to find their peace, and I wanted to teach people how heal their bodies from the inside out. So in 2007 I graduated Sonic Yoga’s 200-hour Vinyasa Teacher Certification and began the website www.alotofbeautiful.com In 2010 a private client of mine approached me to become her partner and Revolution was born.
