BEST MOMENTS

"Planet Wellness was actually founded during the pandemic lockdown when we were all there and we said, let's just form this business and do it. And it's been growing ever since."

"We offer mainly a service called Aridology, which is the study of your iris, and from there, we can actually tell the weaknesses in the various organs even before the symptoms arise."

"I think the way forward in particularly this industry is, you know, organics and natural products... just to live a more healthier lifestyle."

"I've managed to help someone who had insomnia... just with some advice, he didn't come to see me at all."

"When they see me preparing it from scratch... they’ve just been amazed how fast it takes... you can actually cook it within 20 minutes."
