Welcome to MARA

The Manila Academy of Regional Anesthesia (MARA) was established by a core group of anesthesiologists who initiated and introduced the use of the peripheral nerve stimulator and ultrasound guided regional anesthesia (RA) in the Philippines. Since 2008, the co-founders of MARA have been faculty members, speakers and facilitators in various ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) courses held throughout the country and internationally.
