Kirsty Hurd-Thomas, Shiatsu Totnes

Kirsty Hurd-Thomas is an experienced alternative medicine practitioner, massage therapist, and Tai Chi instructor based in Totnes/Exeter, New Zealand. She runs the shiatsu practise called “Kirsty Hurd-Thomas, Shiatsu Totnes”. With years of experience in the field, Kirsty brings a unique approach to healing and wellness.

Shiatsu is a form of therapeutic touch that combines gentle pressure, stretches, joint mobilisations, and rocking techniques to promote physical and energetic balance in the body. It helps re-energise weak areas, release tension, and bring harmony to both the body and mind. Through shiatsu, clients can experience transformative changes physically, mentally, emotionally, and energetically, allowing them to break free from patterns that cause illness, stiffness, or feeling stuck.

Kirsty has been practising shiatsu in Totnes and the surrounding areas for many years, gaining a reputation for her skilled and intuitive touch. Her website provides comprehensive information about shiatsu, its benefits, frequently asked questions, and details about Kirsty's background and training. Visitors can also read testimonials from satisfied clients and sign up for Kirsty's informative newsletters.

In addition to shiatsu, Kirsty offers specialised treatments for women's health, supporting clients during their cancer treatment journey, and deep abdominal treatments. She is committed to providing safe and effective care tailored to each individual's needs.

To enhance her therapies, Kirsty also teaches Qi-gong, an ancient Chinese practise that combines movement, breathing exercises, and meditation to cultivate and balance one's life force energy. She organises Qi-gong events and classes to help her clients tap into their inner power and promote overall well-being.

Kirsty's unique touch is deeply rooted in nature, drawing inspiration from the elements such as water, trees, fire, earth, and metal. Each element represents a different aspect of touch and healing. Water touch brings spontaneity and flow, while tree touch promotes flexibility and release. Fire touch encourages presence and heartful communication, earth touch fosters acceptance and healing, and metal touch brings clarity and boundary-setting.

With a commitment to guiding her clients towards holistic well-being, Kirsty Hurd-Thomas provides a safe and nurturing environment for individuals to heal, grow, and thrive. Contact her for a transformative shiatsu experience, empowering Qi-gong classes, or to find out more about her offerings.
