Hello! I am Marcus Walther, BCTMB, LMT.
My passion is encouraging and teaching others to feel and understand their empowerment in terms of health, healing and wellness. I am a licensed massage therapist as well as an energy worker and craniosacral therapist.
I specialize in finding and releasing blockages, thus restoring energy and fluid flows in the body.
From 1986-1990, while earning a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations at the College of William and Mary, I began to explore and study our relationship to the universe. Questions such as “What am I?” and “What am I doing here?” came to mind frequently. Eventually I discovered that reincarnation is reality; that we are energetic beings; and that death is not the end of our existence. I was raised in the Lutheran faith, and I studied a variety of religions including those of the Native Americans and the hunter-gatherer tribes.
After college I began to live in different parts of the country. Out West, I learned about plants and herbalism. In addition, I began absorbing information about the energetic bodies and I studied the work of Barbara Brennan. I began exploring the idea of attending massage school. During that period, though, I found an energy healing school to investigate instead. In 1999 I moved to Flagstaff, Arizona and enrolled in the School of Heart Awakening. I found it a fascinating experience.
I furthered my study of plants by exploring flower essences. I moved to Northern Virginia and immersed myself in the essences by working for a company called Perelandra. I learned in greater depth that which was seen in the native teachings: the Divine is in everything and that we must honor and work together with this Intelligence to produce results that are balanced and without unintended side effects.
After three years at Perelandra, I decided to go to massage school. I selected the Cayce/Reilly School of Massage in Virginia Beach, Virginia in 2005. I had been providing services at the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A. R. E.) Health Center & Spa since graduation. I also had a private office, and provided therapy in homes and offices. My range of experience in bodywork and energy work is extensive. My desire to learn more about the body-mind led me to the Biodynamic model of craniosacral therapy in 2007. I participated and graduated from a two year craniosacral program at the Lyons Institute. |

| Bio |
Marcus Walther, a body magician who has honed his art for over 30 years, first as a curiosity and hobby, and later as a professional, has been licensed as a massage therapist in Virginia since 2006. After 16 years in Virginia Beach in private practice as well as at Edgar Cayce’s ARE Health Center, he moved his practice to Reston, VA in 2021, and offers his therapy to adults and children, in office and as virtual, distance craniosacral appointments.
Marcus specializes in craniosacral therapy (CST). The harmonization of fluid flow in the body is essential for health and well-being. CST assists in balancing the nervous system by removing restrictions to the flow of the cerebral spinal fluid, thus assisting in greater flow and harmony for all the fluid systems of the body. CST is typically done clothed while laying on a massage table while the therapist uses light touch hand positions on various parts of the body to assess the health of the cerebral spinal fluid.
He continues to learn and grow as he recognizes that this is essential in health and healing. As we find and cultivate inner peace and harmony, we are better able to assist others to find it in themselves. He recognizes the mind-body-spirit connection and that the physical is a result of patterns in the energy body. He has learned that the life force present in all form is health and allows that health consciousness to direct his work. He is proficient in various massage modalities as well as Reflexology. He welcomes the opportunity to assist others in learning about their Body Temple and to recognize their worth through the use of their words, nutrition and self-care. |
