More than 50 years later, Kieser has remained faithful to this concept and has continued to develop machines on the basis of current medical research to guarantee maximum training effectiveness.

Kieser has 42 facilities and 118 franchises worldwide. There are 1,500 people in the Kieser team and over 265,000 clients.
