Gabriel Hoff

Relaxation, Pain Relief, Healing, Empowerment

I specialize Biodynamic Craniosacral work - a practice of helping the body reconnect to its own healing resources through gentle contact.  With communication and intuition I facilitate healing the root causes of issues and help clients feel relaxed, comfortable, and at-home in their bodies. I've been practicing massage since 2012, taught at the Finger Lakes School of Massage for 4-1/2 years, and have practiced Craniosacral professionally since 2017.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Britt on Jun 10
I love how Gab really listened to me and took the time to appropriately address my needs. Excellent work, and I’m feeling much better the next day!
by Stephanie on May 27
Gab really listened with the intent to understand what I was saying. He made suggestions based on what he heard and made sure it was what I wanted. he checked in regularly throughout the massage. He really encouraged me to breathe and be present, which I appreciated. He also followed up with me the following day, which was really great.

Remarkable skills. I recall no moments in an hour where intentional pressure and movement were not applied.

Thoughtful approach and pace, good explanations, interesting approach using my breath as part of the healing process. Will certainly go back.

Not only does Gab have excellent skills, he seems to be very intuitive, generous with his time, and genuinely concerned as shown by a follow-up text.

Gabriel's ability to listen and address my specific needs was excellent. I really felt there was nothing more important to him than supporting my healing. Immense gratitude.
