therapeutic massage + ayurvedic bodywork

At the Ayurvedic Wellness Center, therapeutic massage and Ayurvedic bodywork are more than relaxation - they’re part of a lineage of healing that works through the body’s elemental intelligence.

Massage and Ayurvedic bodywork are key components of our wrap-around care model, designed to support you from multiple angles - physically, energetically, and mentally. Your bodywork sessions complement nutrition, lifestyle, and coaching recommendations from our practitioners, helping your results last longer and your body recalibrate more completely.

Our therapists are among the most skilled in the region, bringing advanced training in a variety of therapeutic massage modalities, as well as ongoing apprenticeship in Ayurvedic body therapies. Each session is rooted in the wisdom of Ayurveda and supported by the highest-quality herbal oils and therapeutic materials available in the country.

Whether you seek deep tissue repair, joint rejuvenation, pain relief, nervous system balance, or emotional grounding, your treatment is custom-tailored to your constitution and wellness goals. These subtle yet powerful therapies help restore flow, vitality, and ease in body, mind, and spirit.

Gina Greene is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Ayurvedic Bodywork Practitioner, and Yoga Teacher with over twenty years of practice. She continues to be moved by the conversation that emerges as the body speaks via the breath, the feeling plane, the tone of the tissue, the response of the fascia and the tenor of words spoken.

Gina believes that healing touch encourages the bodies intelligence to flourish, our sytems to move towards balance and our experiences to be more fully integrated. Sometimes we need assistance in remembering - to slow down, to release the grip of living, to tend to ourselves and rest into the wholeness of connection.

Her therapeutic approach consists of a fluid and intuitive integration of bodywork techniques that are deeply supported by her ability to direct her attention with open awareness. She completed her 520-hour training and two years of apprenticeship at The Kalamazoo Center for the Healing Arts.

Meagan VanStratt is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Ayurvedic Bodyworker, and Yoga practitioner. She was introduced to Yoga and Ayurveda over a decade ago and it quickly became an integral component of her healing journey. When she first experienced Ayurvedic Bodywork in 2017, she knew instantly that she wanted to practice these modalities.

She has trained with Ayurvedic Practitioner, Kara Aubin in the sciences of Yoga & Ayurveda, and graduated from the Institute of Massage Education in 2021. She shares bodywork because of her firsthand experience of the connections it cultivates in body, emotions, and clarity of mind. She is called to meet clients where they’re at and through bodywork support them on their individual healing journey.

Lucia MacLeod is a Licensed Massage Therapist with more than 20 years of experience helping clients achieve greater ease, balance, and well-being. Her approach to bodywork is guided by attentive listening to what the body communicates, both physically and energetically. Each session is tailored to the individual and informed by the unique information she receives through touch and observation. Her work integrates Swedish and Deep Tissue Massage with techniques from Myofascial Release, Somatic Muscle Release Technique, Craniosacral Therapy, Trigger Point Therapy, and Reiki, creating a thoughtful and holistic treatment experience.

Lucia completed her 600-hour professional training at the Potomac Massage Training Institute in Washington, DC. In addition to her massage practice, she has been a dedicated yoga practitioner for more than 30 years, bringing a deep understanding of movement, alignment, breath, and mind-body connection to her work.
