The Cerulean Story

Humble Beginnings
The vision for Cerulean Advanced Fitness and Wellness began in 2013, when Fabrice Dechoux was in search of healing for his promising tennis-playing daughter. After sustaining a succession of injuries over two years, she struggled to return to national-level USTA junior tennis competition, despite many traditional medical and therapist treatments. Turning to integrative medicine out of desperation, they discovered an approach that revealed the root cause of her injuries: a cellular deficiency that could have been addressed two years prior.
Witnessing firsthand the regenerative power of integrative medicine, Fabrice was inspired to research and uncover other non-invasive therapies to condition the body, prevent injuries, and aid in recovery.
