Restore Hyper Wellness, Austin, Texas, reported revenue of $60 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of 84 percent year-over-year.
Same-store sales for the provider of proactive wellness services grew 28 percent year-over-year, a reflection of Restore’s growing momentum with consumers that want to take a proactive approach to their wellness, the company said.
Restore expanded its retail footprint, opening 32 new studios in the first half of 2022. Restore now has more than 150 U.S. locations and more than 600 locations under development in the country. It sold 84 franchise territories in the first half of 2022.
“We set ambitious goals for 2022, and I’m thrilled with the progress we’ve made the first half of the year towards our mission of making Hyper Wellness accessible and affordable for everyone,” said Jim Donnelly, Restore’s CEO and co-founder. “Providing our innovative wellness experience in more than 150 locations to date proves that proactive wellness is a growing focus for people of all walks of life. Our team is proud to have achieved a strong national footprint and a foothold to continue to grow and help more people feel their best and do more of what they love.”
The company delivers what it calls Hyper Wellness, which is grounded in 9 Elements that should be incorporated into daily life inside and outside of Restore’s four walls: oxygen, hydration, nourishment, cold, heat, light, movement, rest and connection.
Restore offers 12 modalities under one roof—each modality supporting one or more of these 9 Elements.
Cryotherapy and IV Drip Therapy are the two most popular services offered at Restore, the company said. NAD+ IV Drips and Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy are growing in awareness and popularity, as more clients feel the results and share their experience. Restore has delivered more than one million whole body cryotherapy sessions, over 900,000 wellness IV drips and over 140,000 mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions since its founding in 2015.
“Our direct-to-consumer, membership-based wellness model allows Restore to offer a better health care experience and develop a closer relationship with its members,” said Steve Welch, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman. “Members visit Restore four times per month on average, whereas half the U.S. population visits their doctor once a year or less. Our deep relationship with clients allows Restore to partner with them more closely to achieve their wellness goals.”
