Farmington wellness provider Nurtur announced its purchase of two wellness firms in Tennessee and New York.
Nurtur acquired ActivHealth in Nashville, Tenn., and Wellness by Choice, based in New York.
Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
The acquisitions add new capabilities to Nurtur, which offers employee assistance programs, work-life services, and disease management for more than 50 commercial and government health plans.
 “With the completion of these joint acquisitions, we now have the in-house capabilities needed to fully execute our Nurtur PeopleCare strategic vision for integrated life and health management,” Nurtur CEO Daniel Cave said in a statement.
Wellness by Choice provides worksite wellness and lifestyle coaching and also consults with employers about administering employee incentive programs, the Nashville Business Journal reports.
ActivHealth was founded in 1998 as a partnership with Duke University, the newspaper said. It provides web-based wellness programs designed to match the risk profiles of individual users.
Its Personal Health Development Network was created with input from professors at Duke’s Center for Living, and provides access to content produced by Duke’s faculty and based on clinical research. Duke was a stockholder in ActivHealth until the acquisition by Nurtur. Though it no longer owns part of the company, it will maintain its business relationship.
ActivHealth will remain in Nashville with current CEO Barton H. Sheeler as president, Nurtur marketing director Jennifer Funaro told the NBJ. The office, which employs six people, will eventually take on the Nurtur brand, she said.
