What Physiomed South does

PHYSIOMED SÜD GmbH is a privately held physiotherapy practice operating two locations in Berlin Rudow (Waßmannsdorfer Chaussee 5) and Berlin Altglienicke (Germanenstraße 49), serving individual patients from childhood through retirement age. The company traces its operational roots to 1989 and was formally incorporated as a GmbH in 2007 by managing director Hendrik Hartung; an associated medical care center (MVZ Berlin Rudow) was established in 2010. The practice is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company.

Core services span orthopedic, neurological, respiratory, and pelvic-floor physiotherapy, delivered through general Krankengymnastik (KG), manual therapy (MT), device-assisted therapy (KGG) using Gym80/Med80 equipment, manual lymph drainage, respiratory therapy, sports physiotherapy, and jaw-joint therapy (CMD). Supplementary offerings include heat therapy, electrotherapy, kinesiotape, foot reflexology, and self-pay wellness services (aroma massage, medical training). Distribution is direct via in-clinic treatment, home visits for mobility-limited patients, and care-facility visits through partnerships with operators such as Korian and Caritas.

The revenue model is bifurcated: the majority of treatments are reimbursed under German statutory health insurance (gesetzliche Krankenversicherung) on prescription, while self-pay services (relaxation massages, prevention training, specialty treatments) generate incremental unit-priced revenue (€28–€68 per session). The 2024–2025 period saw physical capacity expansion (course room conversion) and digital training-area investment, indicating measured organic growth within a single-region Berlin footprint. No funding rounds, M&A, or third-party institutional ownership are disclosed.

Recent moves13 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Asklepios Kliniken: Major German private hospital and rehabilitation provider with extensive Berlin-area presence. Comparable in clinical scope (physiotherapy, rehab) but operates as a multi-specialty hospital group rather than a focused outpatient practice.
• MEDIAN Kliniken: Large German rehabilitation hospital and clinic operator with broad orthopedic and neurological rehab programs. Overlaps with Physiomed South in rehabilitation scope but operates at inpatient scale across many regions.
• Helios Kliniken: One of Germany's largest private hospital groups, part of Fresenius. Provides inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services adjacent to Physiomed South's clinical scope but at significantly greater scale.
• Schoen Klinik: Privately held German hospital group with a strong orthopedic and rehabilitation portfolio. Comparable in orthopedic rehab delivery but at inpatient hospital scale rather than the outpatient practice model.

Direct peers

• ZAR Zentren für ambulante Rehabilitation: Germany's largest chain of outpatient rehabilitation centers offering orthopedic, neurological, and sports rehab across multiple sites. Most directly comparable in service mix (KG, KGG, manual therapy) and ambulatory rehab delivery model.
• RehaTeam: Network of regional outpatient rehabilitation and physiotherapy centers across Germany offering KG, manual therapy, and sports rehab. Comparable in service mix and outpatient delivery model to Physiomed South.

Others

• Doctolib: Leading European practice-management and patient-booking platform widely used by German physiotherapy practices. Functions as enabling infrastructure for Physiomed South's appointment scheduling and patient communication.

Regional players

• Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin: Berlin's university hospital with extensive outpatient rehabilitation and physiotherapy departments. Comparable in clinical breadth and Berlin regional patient overlap but operates as an academic hospital rather than a private practice.
• Vivantes Netzwerk für Gesundheit: Berlin's municipal hospital network providing inpatient and outpatient services including physiotherapy and rehabilitation across Berlin. Overlaps locally with Physiomed South on patient base and orthopedic/neurological service lines.

Emerging players

• Caspar Health: Berlin-based digital rehabilitation platform offering tele-physiotherapy with GKV reimbursement. Competes for the same patient population as Physiomed South via a digital-first model that the brick-and-mortar practice does not offer.
