Shane Evans

Co-Founder and CEO of Heights Wellness Retreat, formerly known as Massage Heights

Shane Evans is the visionary co-founder and CEO of Heights Wellness Retreat, formerly known as Massage Heights. Her journey into the wellness industry began at 19 when she discovered the transformative power of massage therapy to relieve chronic back pain. Unable to afford regular therapy, Shane was inspired to create a business that made wellness both affordable and accessible.

In 2004, she took a bold step, withdrawing her savings and 401(k) to open the first Massage Heights in San Antonio. By 2020, the brand had expanded to over 100 locations across the U.S. and Canada, earning a reputation for high-quality, personalized care. Returning as CEO in 2024, Shane rebranded the company to Heights Wellness Retreat to align with a renewed mission of elevating lives through wellness.

With more than 20 years of leadership experience, Shane’s business philosophy is rooted in empathy, innovation, and a passion for self-care. She is a sought-after speaker and mentor who champions purpose-driven entrepreneurship, women in leadership, and small business empowerment. Shane’s ability to balance strategic growth with a commitment to positive impact continues to inspire leaders to create meaningful change.
