Wellness Industry - 101 by Gillian Tarawhiti

What is the Wellness Industry?

Wellness is anything that makes you feel healthier, stronger, see better, hear better, feel better, or fight symptoms of ageing.

What is the Sickness Industry?

The sickness industry is the healthcare industry i.e. anything concerned with being sick and treating symptoms of sickness. The Sickness Industry has little to do with preventing illness, being stronger or healthier.

What is important about the Wellness Industry?

The Natural Marketing Institute (NMI), Managing Partner Steve French states, “Despite recent economic challenges, consumer spending last year in the health and wellness industry continued to rise. We project this trend to continue with sales reaching more than $73 billion in 2005.” The Consumer Confidence Board corroborated this outlook when it reported that 2004 saw an increased economic expansion and job growth with an even more favourable outlook in 2005.
