A new tech app, Unwind, founded by Joycee Awosika is set to disrupt the wellness industry. With an all-female management team, the mobile app caters to the needs of people by providing them with wellness services in the comfort of their homes, offices and wherever.

At its launch in Lagos, Awosika said the idea was born during the COVID-19 pandemic when people were tired of being at home and desperate for therapeutic rejuvenation.

“Globally, about 20 per cent of spa rooms are occupied and the other 80 per cent are left unused because a lot of people are unable to visit traditional spa centres 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,” she said.

Business Development Manager, Unwind, Queen Edokpa explained that with the Unwind app, you are able to book a nearby Certified Therapist directly to your doorstep anytime, anywhere and at your convenience as it is an innovative intervention intentionally designed to democratise wellness.

The Unwind App is not only catering to people’s wellness needs, it is also contributing immensely to the growth of the wellness industry by providing Spa Therapists with the opportunity to multiply their income to the tune of approximately five to 10 times more than their average salaries.

One of the interesting things about Unwind is how it is solving the problem of “low occupancy rate” among Spas by empowering them to monetise unbooked time slots on their in-Spa Calendars.

Speaking further, Awosika said: “Wellness is critical, especially in a post-pandemic world. More people need to pay attention to their therapeutic and general wellbeing in order to avoid unwanted health complications. The Unwind App exists to help Africans prioritise their selfcare.”
