Kristin Kirk was certified in Zen shiatsu in 1989 by Janet Murphy, founder of The Shiatsu Studio, and has been practicing for over 19 years.

Kristin's healing work has been greatly influenced by studying the unique practices and teachings of Ellen Tadd, Master Tom Tam, and Pricilla Kapel.

Kristin has also studied with the African shaman, Malidoma Some, and more recently began attending Adyashanti retreats. She has taught shiatsu locally at Stillpoint School of Massage, at Greenfield Community College, and at the local five colleges, and has been teaching meditation classes with her guides for the past five years.
