Care for You

What Care for You does

Care for You, SAS is a single-site sport-health facility headquartered in Issy-les-Moulineaux, Île-de-France, operating from a 600 m² floor within the municipal Cité des Sports complex since its official opening on 3 January 2023. The company serves the general public as well as patients with chronic conditions and long-term illness, offering an integrative portfolio that spans gym access, group fitness classes, personal training, prescribed adapted physical activity (Sport sur Ordonnance / APA), sports assessments, a runner-specific program (Bilan Runner and Team Training Running), wellness workshops (sophrology, nutrition), and on-site consultations with ten-plus independent health professionals (physiotherapists, osteopaths, dietitians, psychologists, sports doctors, naturopath, sophrologist) renting five equipped offices inside the facility. It holds the Maison Sport Santé label granted by the French Ministry of Health in 2021, which positions it as a recognized gateway to regular physical activity for chronically ill and inactive populations.

The facility is built around the EGYM connected resistance circuit — eight smart machines plus an eFlex flexibility module — that recognize members via a personal bracelet and deliver auto-adjusted, personalized exercise programs with continuous progression tracking. Assessments combine cardio, force, flexibility, and metabolic tests (the latter using InBody professional impedancemetry) to produce a "bio age" metric that informs programming. A companion mobile application connects to the EGYM equipment and member profile for real-time session tracking, progress monitoring, and home exercise guidance, while a custom member portal (Resamania) handles class reservations and membership management, and Doctolib is used for booking all clinical and partner consultations.

Care for You is a private SAS owned by four founding associates — Christophe Dumas (President, physiotherapist), Laurence Perrin (Managing Director), Philippe Hérisson (physiotherapist, health/sport network lead), and Jean-Charles Perrin (Business Development, corporate relations) — with social capital of €1,200 and no institutional investors. Revenue is generated through a diversified mix of monthly and annual gym subscriptions, Team Training carnet bundles (10 or 20 sessions) and unlimited monthly packages, Personal Training session packages (1/5/10), €159 standalone sports assessments, 3- or 6-month APA programs at physician-recommended pricing, workshop bundles (sophrology, dietetics), branded retail merchandise, and recurring consultation office rentals to on-site health partners. Go-to-market is community-led and event-driven: the Maison Sport Santé label, the Pass Issy Sport partnership with the City of Issy-les-Moulineaux, Doctolib-driven clinical referrals, a tiered parrainage program, and active participation in local association forums and charity events (Forum des associations, AFM Téléthon, Octobre Rose) all serve as primary acquisition channels.

Broad incumbents

• Basic-Fit France: Largest low-cost fitness chain in France (Dutch parent), with hundreds of 24/7 self-service gyms across Ile-de-France. Competes on price and accessibility rather than clinical integration; represents the pricing-pressure benchmark Care for You must differentiate against.
• Fitness Park: Major French premium-accessible gym chain with dense urban presence including several locations in the greater Paris area. Similar mid-premium positioning to Care for You but without the medical-integration and Maison Sport Santé angle.
• Neoness: French premium urban fitness chain with several Paris locations. Closest mid-to-premium positioning to Care for You in terms of facility quality and target member profile, but without the medical/APA layer that differentiates Care for You.
• Magic Form: Regional French fitness chain with Ile-de-France presence offering accessible memberships and group classes. Comparable to Care for You in size and member-segment ambition, but without the sport-santé certification or on-site clinical staff.
• Keep Cool: French low-cost fitness chain with broad national footprint and Ile-de-France locations. Competes with Care for You on convenience and price for the general fitness segment but offers no clinical or sport-santé integration.
• L'Orange Bleue: Established French fitness franchise operating two formats (mon coach fitness and mon coach bien-être) with hundreds of clubs. The 'bien-être' format overlaps with Care for You's wellness-and-coaching positioning, though L'Orange Bleue does not pursue the clinical APA pathway.
• Wellness Sport & Spa: French sport-wellness chain with multiple sites emphasizing holistic wellness programming (group classes, spa-adjacent services). Comparable to Care for You on the wellness dimension and a relevant benchmark for premium small-format facilities in France.
• CMG Sports Club: Premium French fitness operator with flagship Paris locations offering high-end facilities, group classes and personal training. Comparable to Care for You on the premium-facility and group-training dimensions, though without the prescribed-activity positioning.

Others

• Doctolib: France's dominant health-booking platform and key integration partner for Care for You's on-site clinicians (kines, osteopaths, sports doctors). Listed as a peer because Doctolib aggregates sport-santé and APA-related practitioner bookings nationally and shapes the patient acquisition funnel Care for You depends on.

Direct peers

• Siel Bleu: Leading French sport-santé association specializing in adapted physical activity (APA) programs for seniors, people with chronic conditions, and vulnerable populations — the closest direct analogue to Care for You's APA offering, though operating primarily through community-based delivery rather than owned fitness facilities.
