Roland Torikian has practiced as a Maya healer for 30 years in Mexico and the UK.

He trained in Maya Medicine with Lauro de la Cruz in the highlands of Chiapas during the 1990’s. On completing his apprenticeship, Roland opened a clinic in Dharamshala, North India, whilst studying Tibetan Buddhist philosophy with Geshe Sonam Rinchen.

Roland connects the Mayan and Tibetan worlds of medicine and healing, combining sweat lodges and healing practices of the Maya with meditation and shamanic practices used in the Kagyu lineage and Bon Buddhism. He runs regular workshops, sweat lodges and retreats in the UK, Mexico and Sweden.
