Overview

Somatic bodywork for queer men seeking intentional, nervous-system-informed touch therapy. My practice blends deep tissue massage, myofascial release, and assisted stretch mobility through a neuroaffective lens. My focus is working to remap patterns of tension, resistance, and held trauma in the body.
I work primarily on a floor mat, which creates a more grounded, full-body experience and expands the range of therapeutic contact available in a session.
My approach is rooted in a background as a conditioning coach for circus... artists, where I developed an intuitive understanding of how bodies hold and release. I am currently completing an educator certification, with continued training accepted at the NeuroAffective Touch Institute and PCSS.
I work exclusively with queer male-identifying clients in New York City. Sessions are collaborative — I welcome open feedback and ongoing dialogue as part of the therapeutic relationship. My goal is a practice built on trust, consistency, and genuine care.

Testimonials

Gathered by Foster from admiring massage clients to share with you.

June 18, 2026 in New York, NY (in-studio)

No awkwardness, just a confident guy.
The bodywork itself was excellent. This was my first time on a mat. The stretching was incredible and I had no idea what that would be like. My body is always tight from lifting and long days, but his method worked.
What stood out was how relaxed the whole experience felt. Strong hands, patient pressure, and a calm mood. I’m always a little nervous going to someone’s house, but he’s a great host.

My 90-minute massage session with Foster was nothing short of transformative. His touch is intuitive and deeply attuned. There’s a warmth to his presence that fills the room and his energy is genuinely intoxicating. Foster is, without question, a rare find in bodywork.
