FAITH MTWANA
QIn simple terms, what
service do you provide?
AMy main service is to
identify root causes of my
patient’s ailments.
Once identified, I can
employ various natural
remedies to correct and heal the
condition. I use iridology as my
main way to determine the
origin of health problems as
well as get as more information
regarding diet, lifestyle, family
health history and so on.
How did you get started in this
line of work?
My father is a homeopath; I
worked with him for many
years. I realised I had a natural
affinity to work out customer’s

health concerns by asking
questions and doing research to
help them.
The pharmacy I worked for
invested a lot of time and money
sending me to training for
basically every natural health
course available at the time.
From there I continued
studying to qualify for a licence
to practise.
How do you diagnose patients?
I use iridology and ask many
questions to determine patient’s
problems. Also with many years
of experience I can tell quite a
lot by just looking at my
patient’s pallor, voice strength,
and skin condition.
How does what you do differ to
traditional means of diagnosis?
Our approach as natural
medicine practitioners is not just
dealing with symptomatic relief
but getting to the root of the
problem
What treatments do you offer?
My treatments involve a cellular
detox. I use vitamins, minerals,
herbs, amino acids, and
homeopathic remedies,
medicinal and therapeutic
mushrooms.
I basically treat anything that
can be healed or at least
partially healed if I use the
correct natural medication.
What qualifications are
required to do what you do?
You need to first do a basic or
advanced anatomy and
physiology course, then get a
diploma for at least one of the
main treatments you’ll be using.
Also then to decide your
main method of diagnosing,
there are many machines
available, reflexology, bio res, or
in my case iridology.
The best way to reach me is by
calling my wife, Lillian, on 072-

Students’ ‘Macbeth’ brings in African elements
FAITH MTWANA
William Shakespeare’s tragedy,
Macbeth, one of his most
popular plays, has been staged
many times across the globe.
Sonwa Sakuba Institute for
the Performing Arts are set to
stage their own rendition of
Macbeth on October 19,
inspired by African elements
depicted in the costume design,
music and overall production.
Award-winning director Xola
Mziwakhe said the production
was original in its artistic
direction.
“We have reimagined the
story of Macbeth and since we
can’t use the Scotland backstory,
we’ve added many African
elements to the show. We have
a cast of 20 talented performers,
and we have even included
female actors in roles that have
always been performed by male
a c t o r s ,” said Mziwakhe.
“We also make use of both
Shakespeare’s English and our
normal English, in this way we
are able to make it ours while
still telling the original story.”
The overall set design wa s
done by Sonwa Sakuba, who
provided insight as well.
“I’ve worked with Xola
[Mziwakhe] lots of times and
I’ve take into consideration all
the ideas he has wanted to put
on stage. We have created a set
that is African but has a lot of
different cultures,” said Sakuba.
The show runs from October
19 to 22 at the Sonwa Sakuba
Institute at Hemingways Mall.
Tickets are available from
any Pick n Pay outlet or online at
