↑ 24%Next Health nears 20th clinic as longevity boom fuels expansion. June 26, 2026 The longevity brand founded by Dr. Darshan Shah is multiplying fast, leaping from five locations to a projected 26 in two years. Next Health is closing in on its 20th location in Oak Brook, Illinois, the brand's second site in the Chicago area after Lincoln Park. It's a milestone the longevity and wellness brand expects to reach in late July. A second international location will soon open in Vancouver, following Next Health's first in Dubai. The company has scaled quickly since opening its network to franchising. It made headlines last fall, acquiring Lindora, the former medical weight-loss brand, from boutique fitness franchisor Xponential Fitness. Lindora now serves as a sister brand. Next Health counted five locations at the close of 2024 and now expects to have 26 open by the end of this year, with more slated for 2027, according to the company. Next Health's menu spans the longevity and biohacking categories, including IV therapy, cryotherapy, hyperbaric oxygen, infrared LED and sauna therapy, NAD+ therapy, EBOO ozone therapy, hormone replacement, therapeutic plasma exchange, executive physicals, medical weight optimization and aesthetics, along with branded offerings such as the Decode Protocol and Exomind. Pricing ranges widely. An entry-level diagnostic panel, the Baseline Test, runs $299 and measures 50 core health markers. Next Health's Total Wellness Package, at $2,999, analyzes more than 500 biomarkers across functional medicine tests including food sensitivity, micronutrient, genetic and cancer screening. At the top end, the Executive Physical costs $14,500 and uses in-depth diagnostic tools for early detection of chronic disease. The company's website lists several locations marked as coming soon, including Irvine, California, Tampa and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Paradise Valley, Arizona and Summerlin, Nevada. Royal Personal Training, a fitness studio in Los Angeles, is also slated to have a Next Health facility in its space.
Next Health has opened its East Coast flagship location in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, marking the company's largest longevity centre to date at 4,252 square feet. The facility, located at The Street lifestyle destination near Boston, is now in soft opening. Founded in 2016 by Dr Darshan Shah, Next Health offers services including biomarker and genetic testing, therapeutic plasma exchange, hormone therapy, IV therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and executive physicals. The Chestnut Hill centre is nearly double the size of typical Next Health locations and will receive the latest longevity science treatments before other locations. Co-owner Emilie Wagner said the facility represents the first of its kind in New England. The company is offering first-visit activations during the soft opening period to encourage community engagement.
