What really makes Buddha Kalari different is the emphasis on tradition. The things, that are experienced here cannot be learned from books, by seeing photos or by watching videos. All the oils used in the treatment at our Kalari are organic and hand-made on site under the direct supervision of the master. The medicine we use in the treatments is hand-made in our Kalari Ashram, made according to the recipes which are thousands of years old. These are contained in ancient palm leaf documents, passed down to Dr. C.S. Suchith from his ancestors and teachers. We see that it is our duty to preserve the traditions of the past for the benifit of future generations.
Buddha Kalari is truly a unique place. It is the only place that you will find a martial art, healing system and a spiritual tradition that are part of one cohesive system. Infact, these three aspects – martial, medical and spiritual, all overlap and support each other. Some people may visit for healing, while other may visit for martial arts, and others may be seeking a sanctuary in which they can experience peace. Some visitors may even experience all three.
Both styles of massage Kai Uzhichil (massage with hands) and Chavitti Uzhichil (massage with foot) are practiced. We follow the very traditional way of massage techniques, viz Neduvari, Kuruvari,Villuvattom, Kon, Paad, Kuttadakkam. The massage restores energy, reduces stress and strain, relieves body aches, improves complexion and skin texture and gives a healthy and euphoric feeling. The chronic illness due to back pain, spondylosis, rheumatism, arthritis etc can be relieved to a great extent with this treatment.
Head and face massage is highly beneficial to the health. The massage uses a range of different pressures and rhythms. There are many marma points in the head and face. Massage on face controls and nourishes the five senses .
