Hello,
I am Shane Anderson the founder of Loomis Wellness Retreat, a little bit about me. I am an award winning music producer and songwriter, music philanthropist and entrepreneur. I was born in Germany and was raised in Honolulu, HI. My music has been heard world wide and if you have ever watched reality shows on TV, you have probably heard my music in the background of those shows. Even though I was having success in the music industry while in Los Angeles, I began to feel overwhelmed, anxious, stressed and was looking for a way to relax. This would take me on my own personal journey and conquest I was pushing 385 pounds and unwell.
My own personal journey in natural wellness started in the streets of Chinatown in San Francisco but truly began in Los Angeles’s Chinatown after having long discussions with Chinese tea and herbal shop owners about the benefits of Chinese medicine and loose leaf tea and overall alternative therapies. I came to the conclusion that traditional western medicine can’t be the only way to health and that western medicine focused on labs, tests, and training while traditional Chinese medicine and techniques go back thousands of years and rely on Yin and Yang and overall Qi or “Life Force Energy” for overall wellness.
In 2016 I opened my pop-up tea shop called “Live In Zen” a small boutique tea shop on Sunset Blvd. in Los Angeles, CA that blended gong fu cha ceremonies with performing arts and live music. It was during this time that I decided to further expand my knowledge in the wellness field. In 2018 my overall curiosity encouraged me to enroll in a certificate program at Natural Healing College where I received certificates in Foundations of Holistic Science, Anatomy and Physiology, Essentials of Herbal Medicine and Natural Alternatives to Allopathic Medicine. It was during this coursework where I studied and learned about the many modalities of alternative therapies and wellness.
One night while sitting at home with my wife we decided to create an alternative wellness retreat focused on overall wellness with sound therapy being at the forefront. We wanted to provide relaxing and beneficial wellness center to our customers while also providing affordable alternative therapy services and options to our guests.
I understand the importance of having alternative options in overall healthcare and the balance of chi and wellness. I looks at the company as more of an overall lifestyle brand and approach than anything else and wants to help others with feeling better and taking control of their bodies instead of letting pharmaceuticals control your body.
We are on this journey with you. – Shane & Sarine
