From the reviews

Foster Wellness is fantastic. I met Jeannine after referral from my sports physician. She took the time to explore my injury and find out the most efficient way to maximize therapy. She worked with me through marathon training and it made a huge difference.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Jan 2020

Jeannine gave descriptions and explanations of each treatment in plain language that I could understand. She helped me understand the injury and options for treatment. I felt so much relief after the first appointment and will continue going to continue improving.

★★★★★ — Peggy, Jul 2025

I have had a wonderful experience working with Jeannine! She is kind, thoughtful, and professional. Her space is inviting and welcoming. I already feel amazing after just one session. Jeannine is incredible to work with! I would recommend her to everyone.

★★★★★ — Meghan, Oct 2021

Amazing!!!! Jeannine is such a talented masseuse. I was so impressed and left feeling incredibly relaxed. I've already booked a second appointment and will definitely be booking more treatments with her. Thank you Jannine!! :)

What to expect from your first cupping session

New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
