Meredith Wharton Massage

Abhyanga Style Swedish Massage

Abhyanga is a traditional Ayurvedic practice of massaging the body with warm, herb-infused oil. For thousands of years, it has been a ritual of self-care, nourishment, and deep relaxation.

At Meredith Wharton Massage, I blend this time-honored practice with classic Swedish massage and gentle, rhythmic lymphatic strokes. Warm oil is applied with long, flowing movements that ease tired muscles, encourage circulation and lymphatic flow, and calm the nervous system. Your skin is left soft, moisturized, and glowing.

What to expect:

• A quiet, unhurried hour in a peaceful space
• Warm herb-infused oil applied from head to toe
• Slow, flowing massage focused on relaxation and renewal
• Ayurvedic-style lymphatic massage routine, including gentle work over traditional marma points and Traditional Swedish techniques.
• Light, rhythmic strokes directed toward the body’s major lymph node areas
• Skin that feels soft, nourished, and radiant afterward

Perfect for:

• Brides, mothers of the bride, and bridesmaids preparing for a wedding weekend
• Anyone who needs to slow down, breathe, and reset
• Those looking to nourish dry skin or prep skin before a spray tan
• Gifting yourself a true hour of peace

Please note: Abhyanga is a relaxation and wellness service and is not intended to diagnose or treat medical conditions. Please complete a brief health intake before your session.

FAQ:

What is inside your herbal oil blend?

I use Banyan Botanicals brand Daily Oil on the face and body. I also incorporate Banyan Botanicals

Mahanayran to sooth muscles & joints.

What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda (say it “eye-your-VAY-da”) is a very old way of taking care of your body that started in India thousands of years ago. It’s all about helping your body, mind, and feelings stay happy and balanced. People who follow Ayurveda use things like warm oils, yummy herbs and spices, good food, rest, and gentle massage to feel calm and cozy.

What are marma points? Think of them as the body’s key relaxation spots. In Ayurvedic tradition, there are 107 of them, and gentle touch on these areas helps you feel calm and balanced.

What should I wear? Loose, comfortable clothing that you do not mind if some residual oil gets on afterwards.

Must I be completely undressed for the massage? Most massage techniques are traditionally performed with the client unclothed; however, it is entirely up to you what you want to wear. You should undress to your level of comfort.
