19 February, 2025
From Indian Ayurveda to China’s acupuncture, start 2025 strong with these holistic healing practices have long been at the heart of Nepalese wellness traditions. Bringing them to the Maldives is the renowned Nepalese wellness practitioner Dr. Tridendra Shakya, who will be consulting and treating guests staying at The Standard Huruvalhi Maldives as part of an exclusive residency on February 17 – March 31.
Dr. Shakya, who comes with almost two decades of experience in various modalities, is an expert in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine, as well as possessing extensive yogic knowledge. His tailored treatments, ranging from acupuncture to breathwork, often incorporate modern therapies to support stress management, address sleep disturbances and alleviate anxiety.
Acupuncture’s healing touch
Acupuncture, the practice of triggering specific points on the skin with fine needles, is one of Dr. Shakya’s specialties. Guests suffering from chronic pain will benefit from traditional acupuncture, while those looking to rejuvenate naturally can try an anti-aging treatment that stimulates collagen, improves circulation and promotes a youthful glow through needle application.
Meanwhile, Dr. Shakya’s popular acupuncture-based weight loss session targets food cravings, and his yogic cleansing therapy helps to detox, supports digestion and enhances gut immunity. Acupuncture is also at the heart of this exclusive Sleep Well package that works in combination with breathwork and a foot bath, and the three-step Acu-Massage treatment that adds in cupping and Marma point massage.
In flow with yoga
Yoga lovers can rebalance with Yoga Nidra, which works by calming the nervous system to improve sleep. Other options include customised therapeutic yoga that deploys breathwork, supportive postures and mindfulness techniques to address physical and emotional concerns; and Motion Meditation blending Tai Chi and Qi Gong to enhance vitality and balance.
