About the Therapists

LORINE HOFFER
Owner, Licensed Massage Therapist

Lorine Hoffer, a "recovering Type A personality", was drawn to massage school in 1996 as a means to enhance her own physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Lorine moved to Park City in October 2002 from the Washington, D.C. area where, for five years, she owned and operated a massage therapy private practice serving clients from 4 to 94 years old.

Lorine's training includes Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Connective Tissue Therapy, Neuromuscular Therapy, Sports Massage, Prenatal Massage, Heated Stone Massage, Seated Chair Massage, Indian Face Massage, Canine Massage, Reflexology, Polarity, and Hydrotherapy. In addition, Lorine teaches private Couples Massage Classes and offers consulting services for setting up and maintaining a dedicated massage room in your home.

While Lorine specializes in deeper, specific work she is happy to provide you with a lighter relaxation massage. She has worked with numerous athletes, especially runners and cyclists, and strives to provide each client with the exact massage they want and need that day.

Lorine's 682 hours of Canine Massage training was received from the Lang Institute of Canine Massage in Loveland, CO. Training included not only hands-on massage, but also how to read canine bodies and movement, anatomy, physiology, nutrition, and more. The program focuses on the entire dog and using massage as an integral part of your pet's health and wellness program.

When not working, Lorine enjoys travel, vegetarian cooking, natural healthcare, and playing outdoors with her husband Ori, daughter Ilana, and Vizsla Ginger. A member of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) and International Association of Animal Massage and Bodywork (IAAMB), Lorine is licensed in Utah and certified Nationally (NCTMB).
