Marmaghata refers to traumatic injury to Marma—vital anatomical points described in Ayurveda as seats of Prana. Acharya Sushruta has emphasized that injury to these points results in serious consequences such as intense pain, hemorrhage, deformity, neurological deficits, loss of function, or even death depending upon the type and location of the Marma involved. Trauma leads to sudden aggravation of Vata Dosha, which plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Marmaghata. If not managed properly, Marmaghata may progress into chronic Vata disorders and permanent disability. Panchakarma, the specialized bio-purificatory therapy of Ayurveda, offers a holistic approach for the management and rehabilitation of Marmaghata. Therapies such as Snehana, Swedana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana help pacify aggravated Vata, remove Srotorodha, improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote neuromuscular regeneration. This review article critically analyzes classical Ayurvedic texts along with modern scientific literature to establish the role of Panchakarma in the management of Marmaghata.
