In the heart of downtown Wyandotte there is an open door of healing and wellness where one can restore, rejuvenate and thrive. And when you leave through the same door you will not only feel better but know that you will be walking through that door again – because feeling better isn’t a luxury but a necessity.

Sarah Lynn Duncan created Haven Wellness in May 2022 to cultivate a mindset shift in the community that a self-care practice which includes massage therapy and biohacking technologies is essential for overall health and well-being.

Biohacking is biological experimentation (as by gene editing or the use of drugs or implants) done to improve the qualities or capabilities of living organisms especially by individuals and groups working outside a traditional medical or scientific research environment.

“We are committed to helping others understand that these services are not a luxury but a necessity in today's fast-paced world,” Duncan said. “Our goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment where individuals can prioritize their health and wellness and develop a sustainable self-care routine that will enhance their quality of life. We strive to be a source of inspiration and empowerment, helping our clients achieve their full potential and live life to the fullest.”

Duncan, a “wellnesspreneur,” is passionate about helping individuals find alternative and natural ways to heal their bodies. A graduate of Irene’s Myomassology Institute in Southfield, she has been practicing massage therapy for 14 years. In 2020, Duncan expanded her health and wellness career by completing her PN1 Nutrition certification through Precision Nutrition.

Her commitment to helping individuals improve their overall health and well-being was the genesis for Haven Wellness.

Their technologies include tools and equipment for enhancing cognitive function, promoting relaxation, and aiding in recovery such as: Kangen Water membership; Cryotherapy (cold therapy); Compression Therapy; IV Therapy; Oxygen Therapy; Infrared Sauna; Esthetician Services, Physical Therapy; Dry Needling Services; Vitality Booth, which is medical grade Red Light Therapy and medical grade Salt Therapy, also known as Halotherapy.

The tables in the treatment rooms have a PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) grounding mat on them, which also aids in natural healing.

“By combining massage therapy and biohacking technologies, we offer a unique approach to wellness that can help our clients achieve their goals and live their best lives,” Duncan said. “Our wellness center is designed to meet the needs of all audiences including athletes, executives, students, elderly, the autistic community, and anyone else interested in optimizing their physical and mental health.”

Duncan calls Wyandotte “the heart” of Downriver.

“We wanted to create a serene oasis nestled in the heart of Downtown Wyandotte, offering a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation,” she said. “The unique aspect of Wyandotte that I love very much is that it is a destination that people choose to visit. Whether it is for a day trip, a longer stay or to enjoy the nightlife, visitors make a conscious decision to come to the city.”

Now is the time to visit Wyandotte and walk through that door and “step into this haven of healing and discover a sanctuary where you can restore, rejuvenate and thrive.”
