What the contribution covers

Where you will notice the difference

Equipment and rooms can be listed. The difference comes from something else, and it sits in two answers: who accompanies you, and how we tell whether it is working.

Your personal Health Guide

Every Fellow has a Health Guide — a medically trained person who accompanies you over the years. You will know their name, and they will know your week: your readings, your routine, your history. They see your measurements before you ask for them, and they coordinate your appointments — including those with doctors outside this house.

Alongside them, a doctor with time for you, because the operation is built for it. We plan around three hours per month and Fellow: conversations, going through your data, coordinating your appointments. Over a year that comes to around thirty-six hours. An appointment at a GP practice usually runs ten to fifteen minutes.

The app and the tele-health access are open to you around the clock, including when you travel. Your Health Guide is reachable at times the two of you agree between you — we would rather say that precisely than sound generous.

And if you would like it, they get in touch once you have not been here for a while. Some people value that, others would rather be left in peace. You settle it at the admission conversation and can change it at any time.

And an attitude that wants to measure

We work with four anchors: body composition, metabolic capacity, stress resilience and sleep. They are taken at the start and again over time — so that you see what changes, and so that we notice early when something tips.

We carry biological age alongside, and we are restrained about it. The measurement uncertainty is of the order of two years. Anyone who turns that into a judgement about a person overstretches the method — we would rather tell you so than sell it to you.

Our methodology is reviewed by a scientific advisory board once a year. We work with university centres for this; where large equipment is needed, these collaborations open the way to it.

A year as a Fellow

What we offer follows a year. Seven elements, the same as under “What we offer” — here with what lies within the contribution and what is added as needed.

Element 01

Arriving

The first appointment is a conversation: time in which someone listens and asks the right questions. After that we record a baseline — body composition, heart rate variability, your history — and you are given your Health Guide. The first ninety days are a period of getting to know one another, with two interim conversations and a review.

Included

the first conversation, the baseline with body composition measurement and heart rate variability, your Health Guide, the ninety days with their conversations, your digital health record, the welcome package.

As needed

further diagnostics and laboratory profiles, where a finding suggests it or you wish for it.

Element 02

Moving

Strength that arrives in everyday life. The machines recognise you and set themselves, so that you can attend to the movement and to nothing else. Alongside that, functional training, classes and the park.

Included

unlimited use of the eGym circuits and the training floors in the Performance Floor and the Smart Movement Lab, all group offerings — yoga, meditation, mobility, masterclasses —, the park and the movement stations within it.

As needed

one-to-one coaching, physiotherapy, osteopathy.

Element 03

Staying healthy

We attend to things before something is missing — and help when something is. This is the medical part, and it is the reason this place exists.

Included

the ongoing support of your Health Guide and of your doctor, the follow-up measurements of the four anchors, virtual care through the app and the tele-health access, the coordination of every appointment — including those outside this house.

As needed

deeper diagnostics and laboratory profiles, medical treatment, psychological support and coaching, technical regeneration methods such as red light, altitude training, whole-body cold and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and intensive programmes over three to six months, where a subject needs more than the everyday.

We run these methods as evidence-informed regeneration, and we make distinctions. Red light is best evidenced for narrowly defined applications. Altitude training and whole-body cold have limited evidence; we offer them as an experience. Where a recognised indication exists, we say so. Where the research is at an early stage, we say that too.

Element 04

Resting

The day sets itself down before it settles in. Sauna, cold, water, park — and quiet that stands in the calendar.

Included

sauna and cold application, the natural bathing pond, quiet zones, covered rest decks in the park that are used in winter too, silent pavilions for yoga and meditation, and the lake a few minutes' walk away.

As needed

massage and manual therapy, the private suites with their own sauna and cold-water pool for half a day for two.

Element 05

Savouring

The good life, thought through in terms of health. Biodynamic, regional, at a level you would otherwise book a table for.

Included

access to the restaurant, the terrace and the Health Bar; taking part in the shared tables and the gatherings. Access belongs to the membership, and what you consume is charged as it is in any good house.

As needed

everything you eat and drink. Alongside that, the guest chef evenings — and a few lighter days in the year: a deliberately reduced way of eating over a few days, medically supervised, that gives the metabolism a pause.

Element 06

Belonging

A place where people know one another. The part that is hardest to describe and easiest to feel.

Included

the quiet rooms of the house, among them a silent room with books where the telephone stays in the bowl, and booths for confidential calls, because most of us work. The Fellowship Circles: small groups of six to eight people who accompany one another over years. The shared gatherings. And the right to propose two people each year who belong here.

As needed

—

This part costs only time.

Element 07

Experiencing

What stays in the memory. Something new each month, so that a year here looks different from the one before.

Included

the Science Talks and expert lectures, the monthly programme, the gatherings of the Fellowship.

As needed

the journeys — among them to the regions of the world where people grow old in notably good health —, special evenings and single formats outside the programme.

The same thread runs through all seven elements: the same person, the same record, the same knowledge of you. All of it grows with the years.

Why we bill some things separately

We could bundle everything and ask for a contribution that would be a multiple of it. Then people who need one massage a year pay for the therapy hours of those who need one a week. Convenient for us, unfair to you.

The line therefore runs there: what carries the everyday is in the contribution. What is individual and unevenly distributed is added as needed.

For everything that is added, Fellow terms apply, clearly below Zurich single-session prices. And part of the modules is certified in such a way that you can claim it through supplementary health insurance — in Switzerland, cover taken out privately in addition to the compulsory basic insurance, which reimburses defined preventive and therapeutic services. What comes back depends on your policy, and we will look into that with you before you book anything.

We hold to one principle: our doctors prescribe an outcome, not single services. No one here earns anything by recommending one treatment more.

What a year like this costs today

Most of the people we speak to already have all of it — spread out. A membership for movement. A check-up with a private provider. A few hours of coaching. A club for social life. Four contracts, four places, four sets of data that know nothing of one another. And a sizeable part of the year is spent in the car.

Added together, at published Zurich prices:

Published prices, Zurich region, as at 2026. Swiss market prices in Swiss francs, not converted.

On top of that would come membership of a networking club. What the Zurich houses charge for it they do not publish — it lies well above the figures one finds on the internet.

The second possibility is a week a year at a clinic, in Switzerland or just across the border. In Switzerland that costs between eight and eleven thousand francs depending on the programme, and a multiple of that at the leading houses. They are good houses, and the week works. Only afterwards the everyday begins again, and the everyday is stronger than a week.

Here the everyday is the place. One contribution, one house, one person who knows you, three hundred and sixty-five days.

Two paths and a founding status

We had three categories. Looked at honestly, there are two paths and one role, and we would rather say it that way.

This page contains no investment recommendation and does not constitute a public offer to subscribe for equity securities.

What we leave out

You can tell a place by what it leaves out, too.

We have taken names with a wide reach off our advisory board because they do not fit this position. And we have left out local providers who advertise “longevity” and offer autologous blood treatments.

It costs us attention. That is the price of being someone you can believe.

The contribution — and why there is no figure here yet

We could write a figure down. We have one, internally, from a fully costed model. And we are in conversations with the first Fellows just now in which we learn something each time that moves the figure. Publishing it now would mean ending a conversation we still want to have.

What we can say: it will be an annual contribution — because a year is the unit this place thinks in, and the unit in which health changes. Early cohorts will keep their contribution.

Tell us what it would be worth to you

This is the way this contribution comes about. In the Self-Portrait we ask you four things, and your answer goes straight into the decision:

1. What do you spend in a year today on movement, rest and medical prevention — added up across all contracts and providers?
2. What would a place like this be worth to you in a year?
3. At what annual contribution would it become too expensive for you to consider at all?
4. Below what annual contribution would you begin to doubt the quality?

We ask the last two deliberately. A price that is too low says as much about a place like this as one that is too high.

Anyone who completes the Self-Portrait receives a personal response on which path fits — and the figures, as soon as they stand, ahead of everyone else.
