Item 7 details an initial investment of $512,909 to $738,991, including a $59,900 franchise fee, driven by build-out for 8-10 private suites with proprietary equipment. Ongoing fees stack up heavily: 7% royalty (minimum $1,750/month), 1% brand fund (minimum $250/month), plus fixed $2,248/month for marketing management ($850), bookkeeping ($349), POS ($599), and technology ($450), on top of a required $1,500/month local marketing spend. With only 3 franchise and 2 corporate locations since franchising in 2022, the system's youth shows in +150% growth (2 to 5 total locations 2022-2023) and ambitious 64 projected new units, signaling franchisor confidence but limited track record for due diligence.

Item 19 reveals average gross revenue of $785,541 across units, impressive for a nascent brand in wellness services, supporting recurring memberships in spa-like settings. No SBA default rates or major litigation flags appear in the 2024 FDD, but the fee structure—totaling potentially $6,000+/month fixed—demands high occupancy to hit breakeven, especially versus category norms where royalties alone often suffice. For investors eyeing wellness trends, this high-revenue tease comes with execution risks in a competitive field; validate via current franchisee validation against those projections.
