Abstract: Wellness centres have become increasingly important for tackling the growing prevalence of lifestyle-related chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, mental health issues, and obesity. This study uses a mix of qualitative data and survey-based analysis to investigate how wellness centres help people make lasting health behaviour changes. With participation from many backgrounds, a structured survey comprising 100 people indicated that 60% of respondents were female and mostly between the ages of 18 and 34, with jobs ranging from students and employees to self-employed people. Reportedly, the most frequently used wellness facilities were yoga and meditation centres; next were fitness gyms and spa centres. The main reasons participants sought wellness services were physical health improvement, stress management, and the necessity of expert health advice. Over 90% of participants recommended wellness centres to others despite certain obstacles, including cost, location, and lack of knowledge; they reported favourable effects, including improved sleep quality, healthier eating habits, and increased motivation. When supplemented with personalised interventions, professional advice, psychological support, digital engagement tools, and a sense of community, the study finds that wellness centres are efficient instruments for instilling and maintaining healthy behaviours. Suggestions call for increasing accessibility, including digital wellness solutions in play, and guaranteeing reasonably priced multidisciplinary wellness programs.
