What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Degree Wellness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Degree Wellness franchises the operation of Degree Wellness Studios. These studios specialize in self-care solutions, utilizing methods such as heat, cold, light, and advanced nutrients. These solutions are designed to enhance both physical and mental health. The Degree Wellness system also includes the sale of related products and merchandise.
Degree Wellness grants franchises to individuals who meet their qualifications, allowing them to own and operate a Degree Wellness Studio within a specific geographic territory. In certain instances, Degree Wellness may offer franchises to individuals or entities not licensed to provide health-related care, particularly in states where such licensing is not mandatory for ownership. These businesses are referred to as "Studio Management Businesses."
The franchise agreement stipulates that the premises must be used solely for operating the Degree Wellness Studio. Franchisees are expected to maintain the studio's condition and appearance to align with Degree Wellness's standards, ensuring a high-quality service environment. This includes regular cleaning, repairs, and updates to equipment and decor. Degree Wellness retains the right to mandate remodeling or refurnishing to reflect changes in the brand's operational standards, provided certain conditions are met, such as sufficient time remaining on the franchise agreement and a demonstrated commitment to the changes across a significant portion of existing Degree Wellness locations.
