Gina Hoffmann LMT - Bio

I have been interested in the human body since my early involvement in classical ballet. After a professional career as a dancer, I discovered yoga at the same time as massage as a means to address the physical body therapeutically. Both sciences address the fascia at a deep level and effect profound postural change. Having experienced those remarkable changes positively and sensing I wanted to share and pass on what I had been given, I knew I had found my calling!

In 2007 I graduated from East West College with the 801 hour massage therapy program and began working at Hawthorne Chiropractic and Healing Arts.

In 2010 I opened my own studio in NW Portland, where I am available by appt. four days a week.
