Kerngesund

What Kerngesund does

Kerngesund, legally organized as Kernfamilie UG, is a German corporate health management (BGM) provider founded in 2019 and headquartered in Blankenburg (Harz) with an additional physiotherapy practice in Halberstadt. The company delivers on-site medical screenings, seminars, workshops, and physiotherapy services to German employers and their employees, operating under a B2B sales-led go-to-market model. Its core product surface spans roughly ten diagnostic screenings — including a 4D-Haltungsanalyse (posture scan), CardioScan (4-channel ECG with heart-rate-variability and Cardio Stress Index), Stresspilot biofeedback, Bioelektrische Impedanzanalyse, HbA1c blood-glucose analysis, Fußdruckmessung, Knieachsenanalyse, Mobilitäts-Check, PAVK screening via ankle-brachial index, and a bundled Gesundheits Check-Up — together with twelve-plus seminar offerings on mindfulness, digital resilience, sleep, ergonomics, nonviolent communication, women's and men's health, patient transfer, and apprentice-specific health days (Azubi-Tage).

The technology stack is rooted in mobile medical-device-class sensors and on-site screening equipment rather than a software platform; all services are performed in person by qualified health consultants, therapists, and medical personnel, with results delivered via printed reports and individualized recommendations. Kerngesund extends its offering through two sub-brands: Physiotherapie (manual therapy, CMD treatment, lymphatic drainage, electrotherapy, ultrasound, massage, and related modalities) and Rehasport (rehabilitation sports in small groups with partial German health-insurance coverage).

Revenue is generated through professional-services fees for on-site BGM packages, individual physiotherapy treatments, and health-insurance-reimbursable Rehasport classes. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the company leverages its certified partnership with German statutory health insurance companies (Gesetzliche Krankenkassen) as a key sales lever to enable cost subsidies for clients. Customer evidence is limited to "Various German companies" with displayed logos, a 5.0/5.0 Google review rating, and a stated cumulative base of 1,000+ healthier individuals served since founding. There are no funding rounds, no parent company, and no public listings — Kerngesund operates as a founder-owned UG with Elisabeth Möseritz as managing director and Anne-Marie Gröschler and David Lott as co-founders.
