Kalari Uzhichchal (A traditional therapy system from Kerala)

Nowadays the Kalari system of massage (Uzhichchal) is widely abused. Any type of massage is publicized as Kalari uzhichchal and has come to a pass that anybody can do it. This great system traditionally handed down to the Kalari gurus through generations are being abused by flaunting fake certificates.

The Kalari uzhichchal is not a system of treatment for the internal organs but Kalari uzhichchal stimulates the internal organs and helps their restoration to the normal condition.

Kalari uzhichchal is meant for giving strength and energy to the nerves, muscles and bones.

Only a skilled Kalari expert can effectively perform the uzhichchal. It is only by passing through the Gajavativu (Elephant Stance), Ashwavativu (Horse Stance), Simhavativu (Lion Stance), Sarpavativu (Snake Stance), Marjaravativu (Cat Stance) etc contained in the physical exercises of Kalaripayattu that the Kalari uzhichchal can be completed.

It could be observed that the Ayurvedic treatment called Kerala Speciality Treatment is another form of Kalari system treatment.

Therefore it is reminded that Kalari uzhichchal should be undergone only under Kalari gurus or their authorized disciples, otherwise it would cause more harm than good.
