Found nestled in the Raa Atoll on Huruvalhi Island, The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives is excited to welcome wellness superstar, Azusa Segawa, to the idyllic island retreat. Specialising in Chi Nei Tsang, Reiki and Thai Massage, Azusa Segawa is part of the island’s ongoing series of wellness residencies at the resort.
Having trained under Grand Master Mantak Chia in Thailand and attended Buddhist teaching by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in India, Azusa Segawa shares her global expertise and passion for cultural wellness practices with guests, offering personalised treatments in energising abdominal massages, re-discovered Reiki healing, and traditional Thai massage body work in combination with Chi Nei Tsang. Through treatments designed to rebalance energy systems and stimulate physical healing, Asuza’s residency brings the best of Thai, Indian and Chinese practices to the heart of the Maldives.
Azusa Segawa’s first class treatments will be available for all guests to experience throughout her residency at the property’s very own The Standard Spa. Treatments include Chi Nei Tsang, an ancient detoxifying and energising abdominal massage and internal organ therapy focusing on the abdomen, clearing out blocked energy and emotions, beneficial for digestive problems, emotional stagnation, and intestinal blockages; Reiki, known as ‘universal life energy’, stimulating the body’s energy flow through from the palms of the practitioner to the patient, encouraging emotional and physical healing to reduce stress and heal the physical ailments; and Thai Body Work with Chi Nei Tsang, a traditional massage from Northern Thailand using slow movements of the feet and elbows in combination with Chi Nei Tsang for deep relaxation, stress relief, and improved quality of sleep.
Azusa Segawa’s treatments will take place in one of the nine private treatment rooms with ocean views at The Standard Spa, alongside an indoor hydrotherapy playground that offers a traditional communal Hamman, cypress aroma steam room and contrast plunge shower. The perfect place to recover, play, chill and explore.
Alongside the residency, The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives is also offering the Island Glow package, boasting everything needed for a blissful island escape with invigorating massages, nourishing meals and holistic healing sessions. Including a 30-minute foot massage at The Spa, a 60-minute Standard Hammam Ritual, a 60-minute body massage and 60-minute facial, a tonic refresher can also be enjoyed after every treatment. It doesn’t stop there – with complimentary access to scheduled group wellness workshops and access to gym and sports facilities, there’s no end to the options. Alongside the pampering, guests can enjoy a daily breakfast, lunch and dinner at the all-day dining spot on the island, Kula Restaurant, and won’t miss out on all the action and activities in the crystal clear water with free use of snorkelling equipment and a 30-minute kayak or paddleboard session daily.
