Yoga Therapy Expert in Belize
Thu, August 17, 2017
Earlier this week we told you about the BELTRAIDE "Maya Spa Experience Brand Competition". Well, today, an expert in another kind of massage arrived in Belize to offer training to masseuses at resorts and spas across the country. Sudevi Kramer will conduct a training in Vedic Thai yoga therapy at the Om Shanti yoga studio here in Belize City. She explained her craft to us today:..

Sudevi Kramer, Vedic Thai Yoga Instructor
"The roots of this work actually are in Thailand and it goes back about to 500 BC and its actually part of their medicine. It originated with the indigenous people and it's around because it works. Its accessible folk medicine yet in the last degree of a physician training they study Thai massage. That kind of says it all. So it's not just people coming for a massage to feel good although that's certainly part of it. It can be taken to the level where if somebody has like frozen shoulder or rotator cuff or a sprain ankle or any just mundane things that happen to us in life. Certainly it's not a surgical procedure, but it is everyday first aid for the mind, the body, the spirit. It works with energy lines in the body."

"This workshop in Belize is mainly targeted for massage therapist, privately or at different hotels. You think that this will be something useful for them and it is something you think that clients would want?"

Sudevi Kramer, Vedic Thai Yoga Instructor
"Absolutely, it's my favorite form of work to receive and I love massage absolutely and the difference between regular massage and this massage is you feel good at the time. You get that massage and in that moment you feel your stress melt away and you feel better, but if you get a Thai massage, you've peel back a layer and you feel good for weeks. The results in having your energy unstuck and what happens with this work and it can take very simple movements to create sophisticated results. What happens with this work is it just opens up the body and they get unstuck in their lives."

The workshop is runs from Friday to Sunday. If you are interested in participating or need information you can call Om Shanti at 629-3763.
