FAQ

Common questions

ContrasTheory wellness room with cold plunge and infrared sauna
What is contrast therapy?

Contrast therapy alternates heat and cold — sauna and cold plunge — to drive circulation, recovery, and resilience. ContrasTheory structures it into guided, repeatable protocols rather than leaving guests to improvise.

Is this a spa concept?

No. ContrasTheory is a structured recovery studio with guided protocols designed for repeatability and scale.

What does it cost to open a studio?

ContrasTheory is an efficient, small-format studio with a standardized build-out. Detailed investment figures are provided in the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) during the discovery process.

What are the ongoing fees?

Franchisees pay a monthly royalty and a brand fund contribution. The full fee structure is outlined in the FDD.

Can I finance the investment?

We do not provide direct financing. Many franchisees use a mix of personal capital, conventional lending, and SBA-backed loans, and we can point you toward lenders familiar with boutique wellness during discovery.

Do I need wellness industry experience?

No. We look for operators with business discipline and the ability to build a strong local team. Brand, training, and operating systems come from the platform.

Can I operate semi-absentee?

Yes. The standardized session flow and lean labor model are designed so a strong studio manager can run daily operations, making ContrasTheory a fit for semi-absentee investors as well as owner-operators.

How does the model stay efficient?

Private-suite utilization, standardized session flow, and an efficient labor model reduce complexity while supporting throughput.

How do studios generate revenue?

Recovery is habit-based: recurring memberships anchored by structured protocols, supplemented by session packs and introductory offers. Habit frequency drives retention and predictable revenue.

How long does it take to open?

Timeline depends on site selection, permitting, and build-out; the standardized studio design keeps the process efficient. A detailed schedule is mapped after signing.

Is multi-unit development available?

Yes. Multi-unit franchise operators are a core candidate profile, and area development options are available for qualified candidates in priority markets.

What support do franchisees receive?

Brand, marketing, training, technology, and development standards — backed by a platform built to scale modern fitness concepts.

Who is Fitura Brands?

Fitura Brands is the fitness and wellness platform behind ContrasTheory, Padel//SWT, and Core Precinct. Franchisees get shared services across real estate, build and design standards, training, marketing, and technology.
