Ma
Rollers are now available!!
We also have the XL Ma Rollers! We recommend
this size to people who already have been using the Ma
for some time, as the large sizes offer a greater cathartic
effect, working more directly on the central nervous system.
Try the XL Ma Roller risk-free. If you order the XL and
decide it doesn't work for you, you may send it back in
exchange it for a smaller size.
(terms: you are responsible for returning the XL to us,
and for paying $6.95 to ship exchange Ma Roller).
THE AUTHENTIC MA
ROLLER
Imitations
are not the same!
In our most recent shipment, we have actually received
the original, original MA
Roller, that uses almost twice as much wood as the MA
Roller which was marketed in the 1970s. The Large
and Xlarge MA Rollers offered here are actually the original
design of the MA Rollers, but were not marketed because
of the extreme cost of manufacturing them. So what
we have all known as the MA Roller for 35 years is actually
the step child of what we now have in stock.

HOW TO USE THE MA ROLLER:
To use, lay on the ground with the Ma Roller underneath your spine.
Allow it to remain stationary penetrating any portion of the neck
or spine with soothing relaxation, breathing into the stretch.
Or slowly roll the Ma Roller up and down the spine, stopping when
appropriate.
ENERGY MATHMATICS IN THE MA
ROLLER
The shape of the MA roller is of an archetypal form which in the
body of man has metamorphosed itself into the various bone
structures as in the sternal notch and the clavicles, or
as the pituitary fossa and the sphenoid bone just behind the eyes
and the Guru Point. It is the form of a winged bird of flight.
It represents that energy in man capable of propelling his evolution
towards an even higher form.
Basically, it is the form of the parabola, whose limbs reach
out to infinity, crossing and coming back.
This has created two conic shapes capable of acting as energy
collectors to bring energy
from outer space through the YU points into the very depth of
the inner organs.
The energetic part of the above statement is easily verifiable
with pendulum dowsing
over the different parts of the Ma Roller.
HOW DOES IT
WORK?
There are 3 fundamental lines of energy which the Ma
Roller stimulates:
The central line of the spine which is gently stretched and the
two lines on either side
on which are found the acupuncture YU points of all the internal
organs.
YU means to transport. By stimulating these points, energy
is transported to the internal organs.
These three lines are known as the Cadeusus or the Staff of
Mercury in the West.
At the nodes are found the seven chakras or energy centers of
the body.
In these centers are located man's essential energies
which can be utilized equally for healing and for his development.
The Central line is connected to the central nervous system,
that is, the brain and spinal cord
and the nerves which issue to the muscles, skin, eyes, ears,
nose, and other external sense organs.
It is more concerned with the conscious voluntary functions of
man.
The two lines on which the YU points lie are connected to the
autonomic nervous system.
It is this nervous system which regulates the vital functions
of the internal organs, the beating
of the heart, the secretion of the glands, the rhythmic movement
of the stomach and intestines and so on.
It is concerned with the more unconscious involuntary vital processes.
These two lines course up the neck, over the crown of the head
to end at the inside corners of the eyes.
They join up with the central line and other so called extra-meridians
at "the Guru Point,"
the stimulation of which in initiation or by the needle can put
one into spontaneous meditation.
Thus the two systems of nerves are related like day to night.
They complete a circuit of energies.
However, there may be tensions and blocks everywhere on the way.
The Ma-roller brings in energy to free these tensions and blocks,
to restore the natural flow of life.
All
of the Original MA Rollers offered here adhere to this acupuncture
principles.
Other imitation MA Rollers may not be in accordance to the
proper measurements, but still work to some degree.
