The concept of healthspan is important because it refers to the period of time in which an individual is generally healthy and free from significant disease or disability. Achieving a long healthspan means not just living a long life but living a long and healthy life.

Wellness, on the other hand, encompasses a range of characteristics that contribute to overall health, including physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. Focusing on wellness can help individuals maintain good health, prevent certain diseases, and improve overall quality of life.

Together, healthspan and wellness emphasise the importance of taking a proactive approach to one’s health. By prioritising healthy habits and lifestyles, individuals can work to achieve a longer period of healthy living, while also enjoying a higher quality of life overall.

Joining Elements on your health journey starts with a complete check-up to ensure we have all the necessary information.

We’ll check your blood pressure, resting pulse  and review your entire medical history, and conduct biological tests such as urine tests. Our advanced WattBike VO2 Max analyzer, lactate and dynamometers will also assess your heart and lung fitness and physical age. These scientific methods provide a reading of your metabolic age that’s plus or minus 2 years.

Our state-of-the-art biometric scales will measure important markers such as inflammation, muscle mass, unhealthy fats, and your BMI.

If you would like even more detailed information our optional epigenetic tests can reveal your cellular and biological age. This will give us a solid starting point, so we can accurately track your progress and hopefully reduce your age measurements and improve your wellbeing at Elements.

Once you become a member, you will have access to invigorating treatments at Elements. Experience the benefits of a clinical sauna set at temperatures up to 80°C, followed by an ice bath at 0-4°C. For a truly intense experience, our cryo chamber drops to -110°C. Rejuvenate in our hyperbaric chamber with pressurized, oxygenated air. Additionally, participate in yoga, Pilates, and high-intensity interval classes twice a week to elevate your heart rate into zone three. Alternatively, engage in zone two activities such as circuits, intense Pilates, and yoga. Your progress will be monitored for at least six months of membership to celebrate improvements in your health.

Our mission is to extend your healthy and vibrant life!
 
We achieve this through our innovative approach of carefully stimulating your body with temperature-controlled saunas, cryochambers, and ice baths. But that’s not all – we also incorporate clinical oxygen saturation while you relax in one of our comfortable chambers.
 
Our cutting-edge treatments are backed by scientific research and offer a variety of benefits, such as treating diseases, reducing inflammation, and boosting hormone levels. These therapies also enhance your body’s natural healing processes.
 
As a member of our community, we start by taking comprehensive measurements of your health to establish a baseline. From there, we work with you to create a personalized plan that will not only improve your overall health and well-being, but also extend your life without disability or illness – that’s what we like to call your ‘healthspan.’
 
Don’t wait any longer – join Elements today and start living your best life!

Testing: Elements utilises high-specification Dynamometers to accurately measure forces in Newtons, providing an assessment of strength or physical age. The calibrated Dynamometers ensure precision in measurement.

Metabolic age is measured using VO2max equipment, which is also of high specification and calibrated for accuracy. This test involves cycling while breathing into a mask, assessing oxygen utilisation during exercise. We also use lactate threshold testing where appropriate.

The Epigenetic test evaluates the epigenome, which consists of chemical compounds that modify the genome to influence traits and disease likelihood. Positive lifestyle changes, exercise, temperature and fasting, diet, and psychological habits can all impact the epigenome and potentially modify the individual’s health outcomes.
