About Michael McMahon

Michael McMahon, LAc, LMT is a licensed massage therapist, licensed acupuncturist, and the founder of Moving Mountain Institute. 

Michael has been in active clinical practice as a massage therapist for over 20 years, with an emphasis on the intersection and integration of our mental/emotional health and our physical experience. He also incorporated acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine into his clinical practice and teachings nearly 10 years ago.

A hallmark of Michael’s practice is his ongoing commitment to education. He has pursued expertise in his field since he began practicing massage therapy in 2000. He has been fortunate to study and train with many leaders and luminaries in the bodywork fields and is happy to share what he has learned from integrating Chinese medicine with his over 20 years of extensive training in Craniosacral Therapy, Myofascial Release, and Visceral Manipulation.

Michael teaches workshops, training series, and lectures to practitioners in a variety of healthcare fields through the Institute. He has developed a novel curriculum as a former adjunct faculty member at the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) where he taught for 9 years and was recognized with an institution-wide award for Innovation & Excellence in Teaching.

He is also an avid reader, writer, and is actively engaged in his community and networks of holistic healthcare providers.
