    E11: Meet Entrepreneur & Co-Owner at Heal & Healing, Izandi Serdyn

    For 37-year-old entrepreneur, Izandi Serdyn, being a professional service provider has always come naturally. She’s run a very successful events business for a decade now and is one of the most highly sought-after wedding planners in the industry. Known for her exceptional service and compassion, her empathy and deep understanding of the stressful nature of this life-changing event is what sets her apart. But in 2018 her love of people and their happiness, took a new direction with the launch of her all natural, medical health spa services and wellness range, HEAL and HEALING, respectively. The new business idea was born out of her own experience. It was whilst in ICU that she noticed how hospital patients around her were needing that extra love and self-care. Some needing basic attention such as their hair washed, feet rubbed or just a general ‘pick-me-up’. Izandi was convinced that there was a need for spa and beauty treatments in hospitals to help the healing process. However, she was not just looking at aesthetics, but was specifically looking to produce a range of natural products and services that assisted the healing process as well. She looked to clinical aromatherapy for a solution; a process that involves the chemistry of essential oils that provide therapeutic properties. Armed with an interest in the many ways that our bodies respond pathologically to the healing process through our senses, HEAL has thought of everything. In 2018 Izandi launched her hospital spa service, , and it soon became a huge success. Today the HEALspa service can be found throughout South Africa and Namibia.
