Every quartile of Restore studios earns about $4,050 a year per active member, $4,130 at the top, $4,048 at the bottom. The whole 2.3-times revenue range across 207 studios is member count. A top-quarter studio holds 367 memberships and a bottom-quarter studio holds 160, and that single figure is the business.
- Every quartile earns about $4,050 a year per active member. $4,130 at the top, $4,048 at the bottom. Pricing and mix are already the same everywhere.
- A member is worth $338 a month. Bottom quartile to third is 63 members. Third to second is 45. Second to top is 99.
- Below $600,000 of sales the $3,500 minimum monthly royalty takes over. At the lowest-selling studios in the system it works out to 15.4% of revenue instead of 7%.
- The $2,000 monthly local minimum marketing charge binds below $1.2m of sales. Three of the four quartiles are spending a flat $24,000 a year against 2%.
- Franchised studios went 216, then 210, then 200. Five opened in 2025 and fifteen closed. 2023 had 61 openings.
How much does a Restore Hyper Wellness franchise make?
The average Restore Hyper Wellness unit reported $1,031,755 of revenue in the 2026 FDD, and the median reported $955,863. The brand’s disclosure document discloses revenue and not profit, so what an owner keeps depends on the cost structure set out below. Fees come off the top first, at about 11% of sales across royalty, brand fund and the rest of the stack. Revenue is not income. Rent, wages, cost of goods and the franchise fees all come out before an owner is paid. The figures for the highest-selling and lowest-selling businesses are below.
Members
What one member is worth.
| quartile | Studios | Gross sales | Active memberships | Per member, year | Per member, month |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| quartile 1 | 52 | $1,515,543 | 367 | $4,130 | $344 |
| quartile 2 | 51 | $1,085,864 | 268 | $4,052 | $338 |
| quartile 3 | 52 | $878,911 | 223 | $3,941 | $328 |
| quartile 4 | 52 | $647,742 | 160 | $4,048 | $337 |
| All 207 | 207 | $1,031,755 | 254 | $4,062 | $339 |
Gross sales and active membership figures as the brand reported it.
A top-quarter studio holds 367 memberships and a bottom-quarter studio holds 160. At $4,130 a year per member against $4,048, the bottom quartile is already charging what the highest-selling charges and selling roughly the same mix on top of it. Whatever separates a $1.5 million studio from a $648,000 studio, it happens away from the price list.
That makes the membership count the only number to run the studio on. Sales, retention, and the services that pull a member back in all resolve into one figure you can read every Monday. Revenue follows it at about $338 a month, and that rate holds however many members you have.
What each step costs in people.
| Step | Members to add | Revenue it adds |
|---|---|---|
| quartile 4 to quartile 3 | 63 | $231,169 |
| quartile 3 to quartile 2 | 45 | $206,953 |
| quartile 2 to quartile 1 | 99 | $429,679 |
| quartile 4 to quartile 1 | 207 | $867,801 |
Ours, taking the difference between the disclosed quartile averages for active memberships and for gross sales.
Sixty-three members is the first move, and it is a number you can plan against. Over a year that is about five net adds a month, sold, kept, and replaced as others leave. Framed that way, the gap between the bottom quartile and the middle of the system is a staffing and follow-up problem.
The jump into the top quartile is the expensive one. 99 members, roughly eight net adds a month for a year, on top of holding the 268 you already have. That is where a studio needs something structural, a second membership tier, corporate accounts, a service that brings members in weekly.
Members by how long the doors have been open.
| Months open | Studios | Gross sales | Active memberships | Per member, year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13 to 24 | 9 | $853,264 | 213 | $4,006 |
| 25 to 36 | 54 | $961,895 | 232 | $4,146 |
| More than 36 | 144 | $1,069,108 | 265 | $4,034 |
Gross sales and membership figures as the brand reported it.
A studio gains about 52 members between its second year and its fourth. 213 at 13 to 24 months, 265 past three years, roughly 26 a year, or two a month net. Spend per member holds at about $4,050 the whole way, so years open buys you people.
Most of the network is already mature. 144 of the 207 studios have been open more than three years and average 265 members. If your studio is past three years and holding fewer than that, the comparison worth making is to studios your own age.
Top performers
What separates the top Restore Hyper Wellness performers
Restore Hyper Wellness splits its locations into groups instead of publishing one average. The best group averaged $1,515,543 a year. The worst averaged $647,742. Both run the same brand, on the same agreement, paying the same fees. The middle location sold $955,863. The average was $1,031,755. More than half the system is below the number the brand quotes.
Decided before you open
- Trade area and site.A 2.3× gap between bands is not an operating gap. Catchment, daytime population and what sits next door set the ceiling before the first customer arrives.
- Capacity, fixed at build.Locations run 1,800 to 2,400 square feet. capacity is 207 studio floor multiplied by hours multiplied by how full they run. What you can sell is set by the build, and the build does not change after opening.
- What you spend to open.Opening costs $764,698 to $1,269,588, a 1.7× range inside one brand. The high end usually buys more capacity, so the cheapest build is not always the cheapest route to the top band.
Live operating levers
- Members, the operating driver.This model bills on members. The owner watches how many people join, how many cancel, and what a member spends beyond the plan. It is worth watching every week, because by the time it turns up in a monthly close the quarter is half gone.
- Fees, and where the minimum bites.Fees run about 11.0% of sales. A minimum sits underneath the percentage, so the low-volume location pays the higher effective rate. The brand charges the weakest locations the most. Work out the sales level where the percentage overtakes the minimum and know which side of it you are on, because the answer changes what an extra dollar of sales is worth.
- The first year.This filing shows how a new location builds up, so the ramp can be underwritten from the document rather than assumed. Read two things out of it: the month sales cross the point where costs are covered, and how much cash you fund before that month arrives. Everything before break-even is paid for by you.
Context you underwrite around
- The reporting screen.207 of 200 locations are behind these figures. Locations open less than the full year, brand-owned, or not meeting the reporting criteria are excluded, as are locations under the brand’s current size standard, so the numbers describe locations that cleared that screen, not the system as a whole.
- What the disclosure leaves out.Item 19 publishes no profit or cost data for franchised locations, no attainment figure. Anything below the sales line has to come from the franchisor or from owners you call.

What the studios bill.
| quartile | Studios | Average | Median | Lowest | Highest | Average per week |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| quartile 1 | 52 | $1,515,543 | $1,399,823 | $1,245,220 | $2,222,648 | $29,145 |

Dollars as the brand reported it.
quartile 4 is where the range gets wide. Its average is $647,742 but it reaches down to $272,421. The other three quartiles sit in tight groups, quartile 3 runs $798,819 to $955,863, a $157,044 range across 52 studios. Everything unusual in this system lives in the bottom quartile, and the $272,421 studio is the one the fee schedule punishes hardest.
The median studio bills $955,863 and the average $1,031,755. Measuring against the average sets a bar that 125 of the 207 studios missed. Your quartile minimum is the better mark. $1,245,220 to reach the top quartile, $956,093 for the second, $798,819 for the third.
What it costs to open.
| Line | Low | High |
|---|---|---|
| Building work, net of tenant allowance | $325,000 | $600,000 |
| Equipment | $171,639 | $237,689 |
| Additional funds, three months | $75,000 | $100,000 |
| Initial franchise fee | $44,500 | $44,500 |
| Three months' rent and security deposit | $12,000 | $60,000 |
| Architect and permitting | $18,000 | $40,000 |
| Grand opening marketing | $25,000 | $25,000 |
| Everything else | $93,559 | $162,399 |
| Total | $764,698 | $1,269,588 |
Individual lines as the brand reported it; the "everything else" row is marked. Collecting furnishings and fixtures, frontage sign, technology system, medical supplies, esthetician supplies, shipping and handling, equipment installation, professional fees, surety bond, insurance and launch training travel.
The landlord allowance is the widest variable in the build. It runs $0 to $300,000 against a building work of $325,000 to $600,000. A studio that lands zero accounts for the whole construction cost; one that lands $300,000 opens for close to half. On a $764,698 low-end total, that allowance is the largest single item you can still influence once the site is chosen.
Three months of working capital is $75,000 to $100,000. It covers post-opening wages and three months of marketing, and sits outside any draw for the owner. Against a first-year membership base building from zero, that is the number to stress-test before signing. Because the pre-opening membership sales period runs five months and the first 90 days are royalty-free.
Fees and the network
What the brand and the required marketing take.
| quartile | Revenue | Royalty | Brand fund | Local marketing | Technology | Total | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| quartile 1 | $1,515,543 | $106,088 | $30,311 | $30,311 | $7,200 | $173,910 | 11.5% |
| quartile 2 | $1,085,864 | $76,010 | $21,717 | $24,000 | $7,200 | $128,927 | 11.9% |
| quartile 3 | $878,911 | $61,524 | $17,578 | $24,000 | $7,200 | $110,302 | 12.5% |
| quartile 4 | $647,742 | $45,342 | $12,955 | $24,000 | $7,200 | $89,497 | 13.8% |
| Lowest-selling studio | $272,421 | $42,000 | $5,448 | $24,000 | $7,200 | $78,648 | 28.9% |
Ours, applying the disclosed rates to each disclosed average and to the lowest disclosed studio.
Two minimums reverse the usual arithmetic. A percentage royalty normally costs a low-selling studio the same share as a strong one. Here the $3,500 monthly minimum and the $2,000 monthly minimum marketing charge both bite hardest at the bottom. So the studios with the least revenue hand over the largest share of it. At $272,421 that is 28.9% before the card fee and 31.6% with it.
$600,000 of sales is the line where the royalty stops being 7%. Below it the $3,500 monthly minimum applies, which is $42,000 a year whatever you bill. quartile 4's average of $647,742 clears it. But its range reaches to $272,421. So part of that quartile is paying the minimum. In member terms, $600,000 is about 148 active memberships.
$1.2 million of sales is the line where local marketing stops being $24,000. Below it the $2,000 monthly minimum applies, so quartiles 2, 3 and 4 all spend the same flat amount while billing very different sums. Only the top quartile is spending 2%. Since marketing is what buys members and members are the whole model, the flat minimum is worth treating as a starting point.
The network of locations.
| Year | Start | Opened | Ceased operations | End |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 174 | 61 | 19 | 216 |
| 2024 | 216 | 11 | 17 | 210 |
| 2025 | 210 | 5 | 15 | 200 |
As the brand reported it.
Openings fell from 61 to 5 in two years while closures held near 16 a year. That is a system past its growth phase. It changes what a franchisee should expect from the franchisor: less new-market energy, more attention to the studios already open. It also changes the resale market, since 13 studios changed hands in 2025 against 200 open.
Colorado and New Hampshire lost the most ground. Colorado went from 9 studios to 4 across the three years, and New Hampshire from 4 to 1 in 2025 alone. California went 23 to 18 in 2024 and held at 18. Concentration matters here because a departing studio in your market takes its marketing spend with it and leaves its members looking for somewhere to go.
Questions we get asked
Does Restore disclose profitability?
What is a Restore member worth?
About $4,050 a year, or $338 a month. That rate holds across every quartile and every cohort. An added member is worth the same to a lower-selling studio as to a strong one, so your revenue forecast is a membership forecast. Sixty-three members is the step from the bottom quartile to the third, roughly five net adds a month for a year.
At what revenue does the minimum royalty start to hurt?
Below $600,000 of gross sales, which is about 148 active memberships. At that point the $3,500 monthly minimum replaces the 7% rate and costs $42,000 a year whatever you bill. At the lowest-selling studios disclosed, $272,421, it works out to 15.4% of revenue. The $2,000 monthly local minimum marketing charge works the same way below $1.2 million of sales. Between them, the two minimums take 28.9% of the lowest-selling studios's revenue before the credit card fee.
What should I make of the system shrinking?
Openings went 61, 11, 5 while closures held near 16 a year, so the franchised count fell from 216 to 200. For an existing owner the practical effects are a franchisor focused on the installed base, a resale market with 13 transfers in 2025. Members in your area who may be looking for a new studio. Zero terminations and zero non-renewals across three years means these were owner decisions.
Who does bookkeeping for a Restore Hyper Wellness franchise?
Memberships bill monthly ahead of the visits, so part of your balance is service you still owe. The bigger issue is the Gross Sales definition. It excludes Specialty Services delivered by an Authorized Care Provider and includes the administrative services fee you earn from that arrangement. So the number your royalty is calculated on differs from the total a customer pays. Those two flows want separating in the ledger from day one. Track active memberships alongside revenue every month, since one predicts the other at about $338. Averan provides bookkeeping, controller, and fractional CFO support for franchise owners and has Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors on the team.
- No profit figure. The filing reports sales and not earnings, so what an owner keeps is not disclosed.
- No cost lines. Wages, rent and cost of goods are not broken out, so margin cannot be rebuilt from the document.
- No attainment figure. The filing does not say how many locations reached the average it publishes.
Questions worth putting to Restore Hyper Wellness
The filing answers what it answers. These are the gaps an owner or a buyer should close directly.
- What do locations at the median spend on wages and rent as a share of sales? The filing reports sales only.
- What separates the highest-selling locations from the lowest: trade area, years open, size, or the owner?
- How long does a new location take to reach the average you publish, and what does the build-up look like month by month?
- At what level of sales do the minimum charges stop applying and the percentage take over?
- How many Restore Hyper Wellness locations closed, were sold, or changed hands last year, and why?
