PelviX

What PelviX does

PelviX, operating under Swiss parent PonteMed Group (PonteMed AG, Arbon, Switzerland) and its US subsidiary PonteMed US, Inc. (New York City), provides non-invasive pelvic floor and core-strengthening fitness equipment based on Functional Magnetic Stimulation (FMS) technology. FMS uses magnetic pulses delivered through a proprietary movable magnetic coil to trigger up to 25,000 deep muscle contractions in a 22-minute seated session while the user remains fully clothed, targeting pelvic floor, abdominal, back, thigh, and gluteal muscles. The company markets a single core hardware platform — the PelviX Core Fitness System chair — under a multi-brand architecture that originated with the 2018 PelviPower concept and now spans PelviX (fitness), PelviBalance (wellness), and PelvicFMS (health).

The business is B2B, selling or leasing Core Fitness System chairs to commercial gyms, fitness chains, wellness centers, spas, and sports clubs, with end consumers accessing the technology through partner facilities via per-session or membership pricing. PelviX equips each partner with a 'complete success system' comprising device deployment, the customer-management software suite, a marketing toolkit, professional training and certification through PonteMed Academy, and ongoing technical support. Named enterprise partners include UFC Gym (US West Coast) and Cowboys Fit (Dallas metro), alongside endorsements from 24-Hour Fitness founder Mark Mastrov and Olympic athletes. The company claims 10+ years of FMS expertise and 700+ partner locations worldwide, with operating geographies spanning Austria, Switzerland, the UK, and the United States.

The technology was introduced in Europe in 1998 for pelvic floor therapy and entered the US market in 2020. Current CEO Remo Schneider, a Swiss specialist in medical law and healthcare management who previously developed and sold the largest private nursing home and rehabilitation clinic chain in Austria and Switzerland, invested in and repositioned the medical-device technology into gym, spa, and wellness channels. PelviX supports its credibility through a collaboration with the University of Vienna and pursues demand via industry trade shows (HFA Show, Parker Seminars), social media, content marketing, and video testimonials. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, but the company markets rapid ROI for gym operators, with break-even claimed within a few months and full payback within the first year.
