Hi, I’m Lori Anne Edwards, founder of Lori Anne’s Wellness Retreat. I’m a certified massage therapist with the California Massage Therapy Council and have been practicing bodywork since 1996. Trained in a variety of modalities, I specialize in injury rehabilitation, deep tissue, and trigger point therapy and provide pain relief from ailments like sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, TMJ, and thoracic outlet syndrome. I have provided bodywork for athletic teams, in hospitals, chiropractic offices, at camps, in workplaces, and for celebrities such as Peter Gabriel, Jack Black, and Paul Simon. Whether you’re looking for chair massage for your next event or party, bodywork treatment in your home, or a relaxing spa treatment such as hot stone therapy or a hand and body scrub, I provide the highest quality bodywork delivered in a professional and caring manner. Other massage modalities provided include Swedish, Shiatsu, Cranial Sacral, Myofascial Release, lymph drainage, PNF stretching, Sports Massage, and Reflexology.
After having been diagnosed with scoliosis at a young age and on the recommendation of my chiropractor, I started practicing yoga to develop and maintain flexibility of my spine. I have found that with regular practice, yoga can help to maintain a healthy body and mind, while creating a more balanced lifestyle. I teach with kindness, humor, and an emphasis on proper form and good body mechanics. I believe that by practicing, even the beginner is a yogi, and I design my classes so that everyone can participate at their own pace, regardless or their age, ability or level. I love helping others develop flexibility, strength, balance, mind-body awareness, and relaxation techniques.
I received my 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training at Yoga at the Village in Glendale, CA, and am an Experienced Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher. I teach weekly classes for children and adults of all ages in the Los Angeles area and also provide private yoga instruction for individuals or groups. Whether you’re looking for a heat-building flow class to build strength and flexibility or a restorative class to relax and unwind, I design my classes to meet the needs of the students, providing modifications or advanced level techniques when appropriate.
Lori Anne’s Wellness Retreat line of aromatherapy bath and body products developed out of a desire to produce products free of chemicals and preservatives, safe for those with allergies or other skin sensitivities. All of my products are hand-made with love using all natural, organic ingredients and high therapeutic grade essential oils to ensure the highest quality. Rich in natural skin emollients like shea butter, coconut oil, cocoa butter, and grapeseed oil, my products provide relief from dry, itchy, cracked skin and can help prevent premature aging. Safe for sensitive skin and free of nut oils, alcohol, or other chemicals and preservatives, Lori Anne’s Wellness Retreat Aromatherapy Body Products make great gifts and are a healthy alternative to the water-based, artificially scented, and chemical-rich products found in most stores.
