Kirsty Wales Massage Therapies

Kirsty Wales Massage Therapies is a specialised massage therapy practise located in Huntly, New Zealand. Kirsty is a highly skilled and experienced therapist who offers a range of tailored and targeted massage therapies to address individual needs. Her passion lies in working with cancer patients, and she specialises in therapies for lymphoedema, traumatic and surgical scarring, and physiological rehabilitation.

Clients have the option of receiving treatments in a cosy and discrete room at “The Foggie Neuk” in Aberchirder, or Kirsty can provide home visits for those who are unable to travel or find it difficult to leave their homes. Kirsty prioritises the health and vulnerability of her clients, especially during the current Covid-19 pandemic, and continues to use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to ensure the safety of everyone involved. Clients are also welcome to wear masks or face coverings for added protection.

One of the key therapies offered by Kirsty is Oncology (Cancer) Massage, which is specifically designed to help cancer patients feel better. She reassures clients that oncology massage does not spread or move cancer around the body, as it has been clinically proven and accepted. Through approved, specific, and non-invasive massage techniques, Kirsty aims to improve the overall wellbeing of her clients by reducing negative symptoms associated with cancer treatments and medications. To explore options and discuss how Kirsty can help, clients are encouraged to reach out for a consultation.

Another therapy offered by Kirsty is ScarWork Massage, which focuses on treating scars resulting from surgeries or accidents. Kirsty has embraced the methods developed by Sharon Wheeler in the USA and combines them with her cancer massage therapies to provide a holistic approach to recovery. She is proud to be one of the earliest registered therapists in the UK who can deliver these specialist and valuable techniques. Kirsty trained with Emma Holly, a registered tutor in the country, and witnessed firsthand the incredible results that can often be achieved in just a single session.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is another specialised technique offered by Kirsty to address the common occurrence of lymphoedema after cancer treatments and surgeries. This technique involves a gentle touch and is designed to relieve pressure on the lymphatic system, which can become strained due to a reduction in the number of nodes in the body. Kirsty's expertise in this area enables her to effectively reduce excess lymph accumulation and swelling in the limbs and body. Clients can contact Kirsty to book a massage and experience the benefits of this technique.

For those looking to maximise their recovery from cancer, surgery, illness, or injury, Kirsty offers a comprehensive programme called “Maximise Your Recovery. ” This programme is aimed at reducing recovery time and enhancing healing through a combination of therapeutic techniques and personalised care. Whether you are recovering from a medical procedure or dealing with a chronic condition, Kirsty can tailor a programme to meet your specific needs and support your journey towards optimal health and wellbeing.

In addition, Kirsty offers a Wellness Massage aimed at relieving muscle tension, reducing headaches, improving sleep quality, and alleviating back pain. With a focus on the client's most troublesome areas, Kirsty combines different techniques and skills to create a calming and therapeutic massage experience.

For urgent treatments, Kirsty offers expedited appointments depending on availability and access. Clients who are able to reach Aberchirder may utilise the treatment room at The Foggie Neuk, or Kirsty can make special arrangements to provide treatments at the client's location if feasible.

Kirsty Wales Massage Therapies is dedicated to providing high-quality and compassionate care to every client. Kirsty's expertise in lymph drainage therapy, massage therapy, personal training, and sports massage therapy makes her a valuable resource for those seeking physical and emotional healing. Whether you are dealing with specific health concerns or simply looking to improve your overall wellbeing, Kirsty is committed to tailoring treatments to meet your unique needs and helping you achieve optimal health and vitality.
