A consultant with Saniterium Global Health Wellness Support Centre, Ibadan, Adebayo Samuel, has advocated greater attention to natural wellness practices, urging people to be patient with their health and avoid rushing the recovery process.
Samuel, who said he had been involved in the business since 2007, explained that Sanitarium Global Health Wellness Support Centre began operations in 2014 and had since received testimonies from clients who reported improvements in their well-being.
Speaking about his experience in the sector, he said one of his greatest sources of satisfaction was hearing clients describe positive changes in their health after receiving support at the centre.
He, however, stressed that the centre did not promise healing, noting that its role was to provide support rather than claim powers that belong to God.
“We do not promise anybody healing because we are not God. We tell them that we care, God cures,” he said.
‘We do not condemn orthodox medicine’
Samuel said the centre’s use of organic products was not intended to condemn conventional medicine, but to encourage people to pay greater attention to natural approaches to wellness.
He explained that the centre offers herbal products described by the organisation as 100 per cent organic, alongside other wellness services.
According to him, the centre’s approach also includes the use of machines and alkaline water as part of its wellness support programme.
He said the centre’s services were not limited to the sale of products, adding that equipment-based services formed a significant part of its operations.
Samuel said the centre’s model comprised machine-based services, alkaline water and products, which he described as contributing 50 per cent, 30 per cent and 20 per cent respectively to its approach.
Consultant urges patience with health recovery
The consultant cautioned against expecting immediate results from wellness interventions, saying recovery timelines vary and require patience.
He compared the process to a child’s development, arguing that meaningful changes often occur gradually rather than instantly.
“Health support is not something that you close your eyes and open your eyes and you are 100 per cent healed. No. You have to exercise what we call patience,” he said.
Samuel also said the centre uses what he described as a three-dimensional body detector to analyse clients’ bodies and provide information intended to guide their lifestyle choices.
He urged clients to pay attention to dietary and lifestyle recommendations, saying that returning to previous habits could undermine efforts to maintain improvements in their well-being.
Promotes healthier lifestyle choices
Samuel advised Nigerians to pay closer attention to their diets and general lifestyle, including reducing their consumption of foods they consider unhealthy.
He encouraged people to approach their health gradually and avoid making unrealistic demands of their bodies.
“My advice is that everybody should come back to natural. Be patient with your health. Build your health gradually, gradually, gradually,” he said.
