Altro is entering a market where gyms and wellness businesses are adding clinical services through different arrangements. Massachusetts gym owner Andrew Boimila offers peptides to members through provider Asher Med. UFC Gym announced a joint venture with NexGen MD Scientific in February to place clinics offering GLP-1s, hormone replacement therapy and peptides inside its studios. The UFC Gym plan starts with two California locations and is set to expand across its network over two years. Life Time has offered the same lineup through its Miora clinics since late 2023. Dallas-based Recess Fitness, a one-location gym, has also rolled out RecessRx with GLP-1s, hormone therapy and peptides. A New Consumer report released this year found that a third of younger consumers said they would consider peptides on the recommendation of a healthcare or wellness professional. That finding points to an opening tied to professional guidance, while Altro's service model places clinical oversight alongside businesses' customer relationships. Altro says it will direct the new funding toward product development, hiring and sales and marketing as it builds its platform for wellness businesses.
