Just noticed this new longevity clinic mentioned in the Peter Attia interview in Outside magazine: Does Peter Attia’s Longevity Plan Work?
In New York City, a startup called Continuum goes one better: for $10,000 per month, you get a precision health plan crafted by AI, a full biometric analysis, massages, nutrient-rich IV drips, and other luxe benefits, laid out in a swanky 25,000-square-foot private gym in Greenwich Village.

Continuum Club doesn’t have personal trainers. “We’re calling them human-performance specialists,” chief revenue officer Tom Wingert tells me as we tour the 25,000-square-foot flagship in Greenwich Village, walking through a room of weight racks and barbells that have just been set up. It’s also not a gym. The founders prefer “wellness social club,” which, like the custom-designed walnut stump banquettes that will serve as tables, nods to a certain kind of exclusivity. As does the price tag of $10,000 a month.
Why $10,000 a month? Science. “This is the lab,” Wingert says, pointing to an empty room that will soon be home to bone-density scanners and treadmills that will run VO2 max tests to track client oxygen-consumption levels. New members, for which there is a wait list, will begin their Continuum Club journey with a full biometric scan — their blood will be drawn, their sleep analyzed, and a wearable device will run instantaneous assessments of their heartbeat, step count, and blood pressure. The results will be input into the company’s proprietary artificial intelligence, which will create a personalized training program for them. You can go to Planet Fitness if you want to get yoked, but Continuum Club, per the company’s press materials, is about “the journey to becoming the ideal version of oneself.”

and the more I look, the more I find. It seems that everyone and their dog is starting a longevity clinic these days…
Longevity may be one of this year’s biggest buzzwords, with emerging leaders in the space having done the impossible: turning IV drips and advanced health testing into a status symbol of health and wellness.
New York in particular has become a hotbed of longevity — and it’s now gaining anti-aging lab Extension Health, which just launched last week and promises to be the ultimate longevity destination.
Behind the latest healthspan concept is Dr. Jonathann Kuo, a double board-certified physician and the founder of healthcare system Hudson Health, a healthcare system that includes Hudson Life for functional and longevity medicine, which has undergone a significant revamp.
In writing a new chapter, Dr. Kuo and a team of psychiatrists, internal medicine and sports medicine doctors have turned Hudson Life into Extension Health, transforming its 160 Seventh Avenue South location to provide proactive health measures in the name of longevity with protocols that not only maximize human performance but address aging.
