Wellness doesn't treat people who are sick or address illness, although it can have a positive effect. Wellness is for people who are already well and want to stay that way, slow down the aging process, or keep from becoming new customers of the sickness business. Money spent on wellness is investing in making us stronger and fight the symptoms of ageing. How do you see the potential of Wellness industry in India?
