The UNWIND Team held a Media Parley at their office in the heart of Victoria Island, where they introduced the new Tech App that is here to disrupt the wellness industry – UNWIND.
UNWIND is a Mobile App that caters to the needs of people by providing them with wellness services in the comfort of their homes, offices, wherever… The UNWIND App is founded by Joycee Awosika and on its all-female Management Team are Tommie Edwards (Chief Technology Officer), Queen Edokpa (Business Development Manager), Abiodun Williams (Provider Success Manager), Ibukunoluwa Ogunro (Operations Manager) and Adejumoke Soetan (Client Support Manager).
During the Parley, Joycee Awosika spoke passionately about how the UNWIND App was born during the COVID-19 Pandemic in the year 2020, a time when people were tired of being at home and desperate for therapeutic rejuvenation.
Globally, about 20% of spa rooms are occupied and the other 80% are left unused because a lot of people are unable to visit traditional spa centers physically, due to busy schedules.
UNWIND is therefore aimed at changing the wellness industry, with a key focus on helping Clients achieve their wellness goals with ease. Queen Edokpa explained: ‘’With the UNWIND App, you are able to book a nearby Certified Therapist directly to your doorstep anytime, anywhere, and at your convenience.’’ Indeed, UNWIND is an innovative intervention intentionally designed to democratize wellness.
Research reveals that the wellness industry is worth over 4 trillion dollars and the numbers are growing fast! The global spa industry, specifically, is worth about 122 billion dollars. Nigeria is one of the fastest-growing markets and this continent is the fastest-growing continent.
UNWIND launched in Lagos, Nigeria, and should expand within the next three months to other states such as Abuja, Port-Harcourt and Kano, with a view to eventually launch in other regions in Africa including Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda and South Africa.
