therapeutic massage & nurse coaching
About
My name is Jessica Zehr and I am a NYS Licensed Massage Therapist and Board Certified Nurse Coach. While I have been trained in a variety of massage modalities, I prefer the effective nature of light-medium touch massage utilizing therapeutic techniques to either promote relaxation or provide relief from chronic pain. I truly believe that massage therapy does not need to be painful to be effective, and in fact can be more effective when it is performed with little to no pain. I also specialize in prenatal, postpartum, and infant massage.
As an RN, I offer holistic coaching services, supporting all areas of health and wellness including physical, spiritual, mental, occupational, and relationships. I specialize in functional medicine and am also trained in cannabis for medicinal uses. I serve Lewis and Jefferson Counties in Northern NY, including by not limited to: Lowville, Watertown, Carthage and Fort Drum.



Massage Services
Therapeutic Massage
This session can range from strictly relaxation to pain management to a combination of both. During your time I will integrate a variety of techniques to promote both relaxation and treat trouble areas, tailoring your massage specifically to you and your needs.
30 Minutes - $50 60 Minutes - $75 90 Minutes - $100
Prenatal and Postpartum Massage
As a trained and certified prenatal and postpartum massage therapist, this session is designed for you based your unique needs during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Early on in pregnancy you can lie on the massage table as you would prior to pregnancy. As your pregnancy progresses, the massage will transition to a comfortable and nurtuting side-lying position where you will be supported with pillows and bolsters. Postpartum massage positioning and accomdations will vary based on what is comfortable for each individual client.

Hot Bamboo Massage
Using hot sticks of bamboo this massage treatment like none other! Like all sessions, the massage is tailored to the client and can vary from strictly relaxation while the smooth bamboo warms your muscles and glides smoothly over your skin, to a deep tissue session allowing the heat of the bamboo to soften the mucles allowing for deeper work into the muscles and surrounding tissues.
30 Minutes - $55 60 Minutes - $80 90 Minutes - $105
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy or CST is a gentle, fully clothed technique that focuses on bringing the whole body into balance, deeply relaxing the nervous system. CST "has been shown to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, as well as many other systems of the body, such as digestive, musculoskeletal, respiratory, circulatory, and more. CST has also been shown to help with the physical components related to such somatic conditions as Post Traumatic Stress, depression and anxiety." - The Upledger Institute
CST has been found to be effective for migraines, TMJ syndrome, Alzheimers, chronic pain and more.
60 Minutes - $75 90 Minutes - $100
Chair Massage
Utilizing a massage chair, clients receive a neck, back, arms and hands massage all while fully clothed. This is a great session for those who have never received massage and want to get an idea of how it feels, or for those that don't have the time for a table massage, but are still in need of a massage. Sessions last between 5-20 minutes.
Cost: $1/minute (5 minute minimum)
Infant Massage Instruction
As a Certified Infant Massage Instructor I come into your home, or you come to my office if you prefer, and I instruct you on how to massage your baby. The session typically takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on your baby's needs throughout the session. You will receive an instructional booklet, with a step by step guide and pictures demonstrating the massage techniques that you learned. You provide a non-scented, cold pressed oil to use on your baby.

Holistic RN Wellness Coaching
As as board certified nurse coach, I use my experience as an RN in a coaching setting to assist clients in achieving their goals according to their definition of optimal health. In this setting we combine life coaching and health coaching for a truly holistic experience .
In this space, you will experience healthcare differently. You will be met with deep listening, compassion, and thought provoking questions as you come to your own conclusions and as you experience personal growth.
Coaching is a space where you have the opportunity to invest in yourself so that you can become the best version of you and in turn, become a better spouse/parter, parent, employee, friend, son/daughter, etc. It is a space where you meet yourself with self love and self compassion vs self deprecation and that is where transformation occurs.
All initial consults are free, and if we feel that we are good fit for each other, a custom package will be designed for you and your needs.
Functional Medicine Consulting
Functional Medicine is root cause medicine. Instead of focusing on treating symptoms like we do with pharmaceuticals, functional medicine seeks to uncover and treat the cause of various health conditions.
As an RN, I cannot diagnosis, order labs, or prescribe, however much of functional medicine focuses on education to support lifestyle change such as stress management, diet, relationships, sleep and so on.
As an RN I can provide education on supplements and herbs as well as lab tests. While I personally cannot order labs or diagnosis, I can educate on what lab tests could potentially indicate, discuss what labs you may want to request from your provider, as well as what labs that are available for individuals to self order.
If I feel that I can offer you support after our initial consultation, I will then create a wellness plan customized to you and your needs.
