Our massage therapists offer customized massage therapy including prenatal, postnatal, sports massage, deep tissue, Swedish massage, lymphatic drainage, reiki-infused massage, as well as customized massage to meet your needs.

Massage is a wonderful way to help target many of the issues during pregnancy, such as back and joint pain. Massage can also help reduce the stress or worry that may come while pregnant and can help with insomnia or discomfort.

Postpartum massage is also wonderful to help restore the body back to its pre-pregnancy state. Massage can help ease any discomfort after birth, assist with the restoration of scar tissue, and promote relaxation.

Megan Franklin, Licensed Massage Therapist

Located in our Farmingdale Offices

Megan’s philosophy is simple: To make people feel good so they can do what they want to do in any stage of life. She works with people from all walks of life: professional athletes, weekend warriors, chronic pain sufferers, and those looking for relaxation. Whether it’s helping with the discomfort of a changing body, working with a stressed-out partner, or tackling the aches and pains from the latest Spartan race, Megan is grateful to work with The Nesting Place to support women and their partners through all stages of pregnancy and beyond.

Having graduated from the Swedish Institute College of Health Sciences in 2009, her work stems from a Swedish massage foundation and interweaves deep tissue, myofascial release, stretching, and Orthobionomy® techniques. After finding it difficult to find someone willing to massage her throughout her two pregnancies, Megan decided she needed to serve this population and received her prenatal massage certification in 2019 with SusanRachel Condon. Megan also has advanced training in sports, medical massage, and is a practitioner of The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy®.

Corinne Montana-Stack, MS, OTR/L, CLT, CCST

Located in our Merrick Office

For as long as Corinne can remember, she wanted to work in healthcare. At 16, Corinne fell in love with occupational therapy while interning at a local school. A few more internships and many courses later, she earned my B.S./M.S. from Towson University in 2010.

For over a decade, Corinne worked in skilled nursing, homecare and at the only certified brain injury unit on Long Island. Along came a company change and a global pandemic and it was time for a career shift. Lymphedema treatment was always in back of Corinne’s mind as her mother is a breast cancer survivor and she has seen her struggles with finding adequate treatment. In late 2020, Corinne trained with the respected Norton School of Lymphatic Studies and became a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT). She mastered the techniques for Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) – the gold standard in lymphedema treatment. The training included the skills necessary for effective Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), specifically the Vodder technique. Since graduating from this course, Corinne has worked at a busy lymphedema clinic on LI.

In 2023, Corinne furthered her career again and became one of the first Certified Cosmetic Surgery Therapists in the country, earning her CCST certification from the Norton School. She was trained by the renowned Nicole Psomas and learned The Psomas Method – a comprehensive protocol, including manual lymphatic drainage, for cosmetic surgery procedures.

The patient population that is nearest and dearest to her heart is perinatal women. While expecting her second child, Corinne did prenatal yoga a few times a week. After classes, she would connect with her fellow expecting moms and educate them on how to minimize their swelling. Following the birth of her daughter in January 2023, Corinne knew she wanted to help women with the discomforts that comes along with pregnancy. Combining her education and experience in OT and lymphatic drainage, she is now focused on her true passion – helping those during pregnancy and post childbirth.

It is her dream come true to have a business in the area of maternal occupational therapy. Corinne hopes you find her treatment space relaxing and her techniques healing.
