Siddha Physiotherapic techniques.

The term Thokkanam is a combination of two words 'Thokku', meaning skin and 'anam' meaning support or tone or heat.

Thokkanam also called Marthanam, is a structured massage technique which is mainly used in the treatment of chronic vaatham ailments. It can, however, also be used in pitham and kabham ailments.

Vatham is the active force responsible for the physiological functioning of Neuromuscular as well as musculoskeletal systems. In Neuromuscular disorders, vaayu or vatham is affected leading to wasting of muscles. So by rejuvenating the depleted vaayus through Thokkanam it is easier to treat the patient and prevent disability.

This therapy practised in nine methods gives excellent results even without any internal drug administration.
