What is known in France as « gentle medicine » is often described in english as integrative health, complementary therapies or holistic wellbeing practices, has grown rapidly across France.
As more people look for natural, non-pharmacological approaches to support their physical and emotional health, Resalib has become the leading national platform connecting the public with qualified practitioners in integrative health and complementary care.
What started as a simple online scheduling tool is now recognised as France’s first and most trusted platform for discovering gentle medicine professionals and booking appointments with ease.
A French tech success story born in Lille
It was founded by two French engineers in 2014 :
- Léo Poitout, software engineer
- Jean Guidez, commercial engineer
They began by working closely with practitioners in the Lille metropolitan area before expanding nationally. Their ambition was to build an intuitive digital environment that makes gentle medicine accessible, transparent and easy to navigate, similar to what English speakers might refer to as an integrative health platform or a complementary therapy directory.
Today, Resalib is recognised across France as the most complete and reliable ecosystem for gentle and holistic practices. A team of over 30 people works at what is now the biggest community for wellness.
The largest integrative health directory in France
Resalib gathers more than 100 disciplines, blending French gentle medicine categories (MCA and INM) with internationally recognised integrative health and complementary therapy approaches such as:
- reflexology
- hypnotherapy
- sophrology (a mind-body method native to Europe)
- naturopathy
- kinesiology
- osteopathy
- nutrition and lifestyle wellbeing
- mind–body practices
- energy-based techniques
- holistic manual therapies
- massages
With more than 100,000 practitioners listed nationwide, Resalib is the most extensive platform of its kind in France, this is another reason why we can describe it as the leading plateform.
