Mac Murphy

Embodiment Facilitator

Mac Murphy is a certified massage therapist, bodyworker, and practitioner of human transformation. Raised among the redwoods of Mill Valley and the wild coastline of Big Sur, he carries the lineage of Esalen Institute, where he was immersed in somatic healing from an early age. His journey began in 2005 with training in Esalen Massage, Soul Motion®, the Feldenkrais Method®, and Tai Chi, later expanding into martial arts, shamanism, Gestalt process, and Chinese Medicine. In 2017, Mac deepened his studies at Five Immortals Temple in China, refining his practice in Qi Gong, Kung Fu, and Daoist healing arts. 

His work integrates Esalen Massage, elemental embodiment, and movement-based healing to help clients reconnect with their bodies and the natural world. Drawing from Qi Gong, primal movement, and earth-based ritual, Mac creates a space for deep relaxation, release, and transformation. His mission is to guide others toward greater presence, vitality, and a renewed relationship with the elements.
