About Johaun Hassen

Johaun is a Michigan born citizen who has a strong passion for massage therapy. Throughout his life, Johaun has competed at high levels as an athlete in both organized sport and just for fun. Johaun understands the tolls life events can take on the body. He has personal experience being treated and treating many ailments, relieving pain symptoms at the source.

Throughout his massage career, Johaun has learned that no two sessions are alike. Everyone has their own set of life experiences and a unique relationship to their body, which deeply affects their personal massage style preferences and needs. This understanding has enabled Johaun to utilize his training and extensive life experience to tailor each massage session to the needs of his clients. He loves blending styles and using the tools he knows to better fit the needs of his clients. From treatment-oriented bodywork including (but not limited to) trigger point therapy, myofascial release, muscle energy techniques (METs), active isolated stretching (AIS) to more of the soothing, relaxing Swedish massage with fluid three-dimensional contact and even accessing a more energy-based multilayered Reiki and chakra balancing.

Johaun has curated a series of signature services that are designed to integrate different massage modalities for a magnificent massage experience.

Therapeutic Massage

Therapeutic Massage

Therapeutic massage involves the manipulation of soft tissue structures of the body to prevent and alleviate pain, discomfort, muscle spasm, stress, and to promote overall health and wellness.  We offer each of the below therapeutic massage modalities to meet your unique needs in our office, or on-site in the comfort of your home or business. We offer a variety of therapeutic massages.

Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is similar to Swedish massage, but the deeper pressure is beneficial in releasing chronic muscle tension. The focus is on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, tendons, and fascia. Benefits include increased range of motion, strengthening of muscles, and more.

Sports Massage
Sports massage is geared toward participants in athletics. Our massage therapists use this technique to help prevent injuries, to prepare the body for athletic activity, to maintain it in optimal condition, and to help athletes recover from workouts and injuries.

Medical Massage
Beyond relaxation, medical massage has a corrective health benefit. This type of massage helps restore the body and can reduce inflammation and stiffness due to arthritis, and improve circulation, mobility, and lubrication of joints with each healing session.

Massage for Seniors
For seniors, our massage therapists gently manipulate the soft tissue, using careful pressure strokes, hand motion, and friction to soothe the delicate conditions of seniors. Massage for seniors reduces inflammation and stiffness due to arthritis, and improves circulation, mobility, and lubrication of joints.

Couples Massage

Couples Massage

During a couples massage, both individuals are massaged in the same room simultaneously by experienced massage therapists. Whether you are a married couple, still dating, same-sex couple, mother and daughter duo, or best friends, there is nothing like a couples massage for some relaxation and pampering. Couples massage is a great way to spend time together while getting a much-needed massage. You can chat through your massage or enjoy your relaxation period in silence with your partner or friend.

IMPORTANT NOTE WHEN BOOKING COUPLES MASSAGE
Please keep in mind when booking a couples session, you must choose two therapists. Please reach out to the office or directly to your preferred therapist to book a couples massage.

Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone Massage

Our therapists will soothe sore, aching muscles using an ancient technique that combines classic massage strokes with warmed river-smoothed stones. Heated in sanitized water, these varying sizes and weights of rocks become massage tools as they are pressed firmly over the length of problem areas. Hot stone massage calms muscle spasms and significantly reduces muscle fatigue.

Prenatal Massage

Prenatal Massage

Prenatal massage focuses on the special needs of a mother-to-be. While her body is going through dramatic changes, this modality of massage enhances the function of muscles and joints, improves circulation, and relieves mental and physical fatigue.

CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle and non-invasive form of bodywork that focuses on the craniosacral system, which includes the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This subtle yet profound therapy helps release tension, improve central nervous system function, and enhance overall well-being.

Reflexology

Reflexology

Reflexology is a therapeutic technique that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, or ears, which correspond to various organs and systems in the body. This focused stimulation promotes relaxation, relieves tension, and encourages overall wellness.

Cupping Therapy

Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is an ancient holistic healing technique that has been practiced for centuries, and it’s now offered as part of our comprehensive massage therapy services. This unique and highly effective method involves the use of special cups to create a gentle suction on the skin’s surface. The cups are strategically placed on various areas of the body, promoting relaxation and relieving tension.

Reiki Energy Healing Session

Reiki Energy Healing Session

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, we are more likely to get sick or feel stressed; if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person, including body, emotions, mind, and spirit, creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security, and well-being. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a light, skin-stretching massage that helps promote the movement of lymphatic fluid out of the swollen limb. It should not be confused with a traditional massage. MLD has been found to be extremely effective for edema treatment and relaxation. It is also beneficial for pre/post-operative surgery as it can minimize scarring and reduce the healing process.

In addition to edema and relaxation, MLD aids in the reduction of swelling and puffiness in the face and neck area, cellulite reduction, and can decrease the frequency and severity of migraines. It can also help with various other conditions, such as sinusitis, fibromyalgia, toxic poisoning, IBS, acne, chronic fatigue, and sleeping disorders.

At Simple Wellness Solutions, our trained and certified therapists have experience working with a variety of clients and conditions, including MLD. Whether you’re looking to reduce swelling after surgery, alleviate the symptoms of a chronic condition, or simply relax and rejuvenate, we’re here to help. Contact us today to schedule your MLD appointment.
