About Kerstin Tracy
CranioSacral Therapy, Equine CranioSacral Bodywork, and Classical Feng Shui.
Hi, I’m Kerstin!
For over 25 years, I have been fascinated by the intricate dance between the body, the mind, and the environment. My journey started not in a quiet therapy room but on the track and in the dressage ring. As a competitive pentathlete, runner, and rider, I was driven by a relentless pursuit of performance.
My master’s degree in Exercise Science from the German Sport University Cologne, where I also worked as a research assistant, taught me the how of biomechanics. But I quickly realized there was a deeper magic at play. My thesis on the power of the mind and perception was just the beginning.
After graduating, I trained as a certified holistic health practitioner in Germany, where I learned to heal the body naturally.
This gentle, powerful technique could create healthy, happy beginnings for infants, and I knew I had to specialize in it. Today, working with babies and children is one of my greatest joys. It’s incredible to help release restrictions in adults that they may have carried since birth, but it's even better to prevent them from taking hold in the first place.
Then there were the horses. I’ve always felt a deep connection to these magnificent animals and a profound joy in training in dressage or exercise riding on the racetrack. Combining my love for them with my professional skills in Equine CranioSacral bodywork felt like coming home. I’ve learned that a horse’s "bad" behavior is often just a conversation waiting to happen—a message about a deep restriction around their nervous system. Gaining their trust and helping them find relief is an honor I cherish every day.
From Bodywork to Your Living Room
You may wonder how Feng Shui fits in. After years of helping bodies find alignment, I realized our surroundings need alignment too. Think of me as a bodyworker for your house.
As a certified Diamond Feng Shui Consultant and Red Ribbon Professional with the International Feng Shui Guild, I studied with Feng Shui Master Marie Diamond, featured in The Secret, and with Joey Yap, a global authority on Chinese Metaphysics. I use these classical principles to make powerful changes in your home or business, whether your goal is better health, greater abundance, stronger relationships, or simply not tripping over the ottoman every morning.
Your environment is the one factor that works on you 24 hours a day. Why not tap into the powerful energies it offers and steer around the challenging ones? I consult in person in Reno and virtually for clients worldwide.

It started with a Struggling Baby and a Stressed-Out Horse
My path to becoming a healer wasn't linear. It was shaped by real-life challenges—the kind that don't come with a manual.
CranioSacral Therapy has not only helped my own body heal, but also healed the birth trauma of our oldest child, the sensory issues of our middle one, and when our youngest child struggled with breastfeeding, we decided to have him treated by a colleague. The results were so profound and immediate that a lightbulb went on.
This gentle, powerful technique could create healthy, happy beginnings for infants, and I knew I had to specialize in it. Today, working with babies and children is one of my greatest joys. It is also incredible to help release restrictions in adults that they may have carried since birth, but it's even better to prevent them from taking hold in the first place.
Then There Were the Horses
I’ve always felt a deep connection to these magnificent animals and a profound joy in training in dressage or exercise riding on the racetrack. Combining my love for them with my professional skills in Equine CranioSacral bodywork felt like coming home. I’ve learned that a horse’s "bad" behavior is often just a conversation waiting to happen, a message about a deep restriction around their nervous system. Gaining their trust and helping them find relief is an honor I cherish every day.
My Mission
I am dedicated to helping humans and horses release discomfort and reconnect with their inner wisdom and guidance. I focus on creating a safe, nurturing environment where relaxation and the release of limitations unlock true potential. My goal is for everyone I work with to regain their health and feel empowered, uplifted, and aligned with their most whole selves.
I know how hard it can be to trust enough to reach out when you are experiencing stress and pain. When you are ready, I am here.
