About Kirsty

Kirsty Saunders is a Senior Spinal Energetics Practitioner (Level 1 & 2) and Retreat Facilitator with over 15 years’ experience in public health across Australia and the UK, holding a Health Promotion degree. She brings a grounded professional foundation, blending this with somatic, body-led techniques in Spinal Energetics, alongside deep intuitive elements from her experience and qualifications in yoga, Reiki, meditation, breathwork, and aromatherapy.

Kirsty values community, authenticity, compassion, and connection. Her intention is to hold nurturing and sacred space that honours each person’s innate ability to heal, guiding them back into harmony across mental, emotional, physical, and energetic layers of self.

She weaves Spinal Energetics with her expertise as a yoga teacher since 2012 — specialising in somatic body processing and nervous system awareness — alongside Reiki (since 2017), meditation, breathwork, and aromatherapy. This integrative approach supports deep self-enquiry and energetic integration. Kirsty specialises in timeline healing, gently accessing stored experiences and energies across the lifespan so you can reconnect with the wisdom held in your body.

What sets Kirsty apart is her unwavering presence — the kind that invites and cultivates safety in the body. When someone feels truly witnessed and held, without the need to rush a process or be fixed, the nervous system relaxes, trust opens, and inner shifts become possible. You’ll know, if you work with her, that presence is always there: steady, authentic, and fully attuned—honouring where you are right now, in this human life.

Kirsty offers 1:1 Spinal Energetics sessions in Richmond at Spinal Energetics HQ and in Seaford at her own dedicated space. She also facilitates regular group classes and has been running her signature women’s wellness retreats for six years — primarily at the serene Karma Kinglake in Victoria, with occasional variations across the state. These immersive weekends mirror the same heart-centred holding: a safe container where layers unfold in community, nature, and quiet connection.

Kirsty works with individuals who feel fragmented, lost, or disconnected — often from grief, trauma, stress, or major life transitions. Her approach invites safety back into the body, deepens the relationship with self and returns you to the wholeness that is already within, and cultivates a felt sense of grounded presence and home within. She supports you to meet, feel, and integrate what is held in your systems — working within your own capacity to reorganise and find ease in the nervous system, breath by breath.

Individuals leave sessions, classes, and retreats feeling lighter, clearer, more at ease, anchored, and whole. Through heart energy, sacred intention, and deep listening to the body’s own intelligence, Kirsty co-creates a pathway home to your truest self — the self that was always here.

Healing is a non-linear journey of layers. It begins with turning inward to reconnect with the innate wisdom you already carry. In the spaces Kirsty holds, you are invited to energetically meet the fractured or fragmented parts of yourself with love and curiosity. Nature’s wisdom, through essential oils, aromatherapy, and earth connection, often weaves its way in, reminding you that the same harmony lives within us all.

Kirsty feels honoured to walk alongside you as you embody your own unique healing path, whether in a private session, group class, or retreat. You are worthy of this deep support—no one is broken; we’re all just living the human experience, and you’re met exactly where you stand.
