Kristin has been one of Canada's most passionate pioneers in the research and practice of Thai massage. With twelve years of experience, she was of the first Registered Thai Therapists in the country and is still one of the few Thai Alliance, Internationally approved Instructors for the region. Her training began under the wisdom of the elderly, with P' Sinuan from the Old Medicine Hospital of Chiang Mai in 1999. The opportunity to learn privately with teachers who had mastered the art of this acupressure energy work resonated with her deeply.

Kristin lived in Northern Thailand for two years where she taught English in a preschool and learned the Thai language. There she studied Thai Reflexology and Thai massage with now more than 800 hours in the classroom and over 3000 hours in practice. Kristin studied Advanced Therapeutic Applications at the Ancient Thai Massage School of Chiang Mai and for further certification she completed training with the TMC School of Chiang Mai, where the first Thai Nation-wide standardization and recognition in the West was made in liaison with the Thai Ministry of Education.

Since her return to Canada in 2002, Kristin worked with the Thai Ministry of Health translating curriculum material and studied with their Traditional Medical Doctors. She has been actively expanding in other healing practices such as Prenatal Thai Massage, Herbal Compress (Lukprakob), Cranio-sacral Therapy, Somato Emotional Release, Spa Hydrotherapy, Raindrop Therapy with essential oils, Hakomi Counselling, Reiki, Soft Tissue Release and Doula support for pregnancy.
