Tamsin Chik

A Journey of TCM, Movement, and Mindfulness

Tamsin Chik was first introduced to Total Therapy Training in 2015 while providing a corporate wellbeing day at a gym. At the time, she was running her own wellbeing and beauty business alongside a career in fitness. Keen to expand her clinical skills, she enrolled on the fire cupping course and has continued to train with the school ever since, driven by a deep desire to learn more therapies.

Specialising in massage, movement, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tamsin has trained in almost the full range of therapies the school offers. Following her initial 2015 training, she pursued comprehensive study, including Masters Tuina, TCM Acupuncture (earning a full Licentiate Degree), and numerous complementary short courses.

Tamsin works with a wide range of client needs, but is particularly passionate about mental health and movement. By using the principles of TCM, she enriches her fitness classes and connects with populations that might not have previously had access to Chinese Medicine. Her extensive background in fitness, healthy eating, Mindfulness, and Meditation allows her to seamlessly incorporate Chinese medicine into her practice, with visible benefits for her clients.

Through personal practice of these principles, Tamsin has also addressed her own mental well-being, bringing it into balance. She uses this knowledge to support her own family’s health and continues to write future courses to share her expertise with other students.

As an instructor for Total Therapy, Tamsin is knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to teaching. Her studies have brought her closer to her roots in Hong Kong, deepening her insight into family health traditions and revealing the strong connection between her martial arts practice and the healing arts.
