Preventive Diagnostics
Comprehensive health assessments that go far beyond standard check-ups. Detect cardiovascular risk, cancer markers, hormonal imbalances, and metabolic dysfunction years before symptoms appear.

Longevity Medicine
Age Better. Live Stronger.
Longevity is not about living longer in poor health. It is about extending your healthspan — the years you spend in full vitality. Our preventive medicine programs detect risks early, optimize biological function, and slow the mechanisms of aging.

Our Philosophy
Medicine That Prevents, Not Just Treats
Conventional medicine excels at treating disease once it has developed. Longevity medicine asks a different question: how can we detect and correct biological imbalances before they become disease?
At St. George Hospital, our longevity programs combine advanced laboratory diagnostics, hormone optimization, metabolic assessment, gut health analysis, and targeted biological therapies to identify and address the root causes of accelerated aging — the functional medicine method applied to prevention.
Our approach draws on the hospital's experience in integrative medicine since 1991, treating the body as an interconnected system rather than a collection of isolated organs. Under the leadership of Dr. Julian Douwes (Chief Medical Officer), who develops all new treatment protocols, alongside Dr. Martin Rößner (Chief Physician, Internal Medicine and Longevity) and with the support of Dr. Daniela Hudi in hormone optimization and longevity medicine, our programs are designed to help you function at your biological best.
Our Programs
Longevity & Preventive Medicine
Hormone Optimization
Bioidentical hormone therapy, thyroid optimization, adrenal support, and comprehensive hormonal balancing for men and women experiencing age-related hormonal decline.
Hormone optimization →Detox Program
Medical detoxification to reduce the accumulated burden of heavy metals, environmental toxins, and metabolic waste that accelerate aging and impair organ function.
The medical detox programme →Gut Health & Regeneration
Microbiome analysis, intestinal permeability repair, and gut restoration protocols that address the foundation of immune health, metabolism, and brain function.
Gut health and microbiome medicine →Men's Health
Specialized programs for men addressing testosterone optimization, prostate health, cardiovascular risk, metabolic syndrome, and age-related performance decline.

Begin with a comprehensive assessment. We will design a personalized longevity plan based on your biology, goals, and health history.
The Science of Aging Well
Pillars of Longevity Medicine
Mitochondrial Health
Cellular energy production declines with age. Supporting mitochondrial function is fundamental to maintaining vitality, cognitive clarity, and physical performance.
Hormonal Balance
Declining hormones are not inevitable. Careful optimization of thyroid, sex hormones, growth factors, and adrenal function can restore energy, mood, and resilience.
Inflammation Control
Chronic low-grade inflammation -- "inflammaging" -- accelerates every aspect of biological aging. Identifying and eliminating inflammation sources is essential.
Detoxification
Decades of accumulated environmental toxins impair organ function. Medical detoxification reduces this burden and allows the body to regenerate more effectively.
RELATED THERAPIES
Therapies Used in Our Longevity Programs
Senolytic Protocol
Targeted removal of senescent cells that accumulate with age and drive chronic inflammation, tissue dysfunction, and accelerated aging.
What the preventive check-up includes →IHHT Oxygen Therapy
Intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia training rejuvenates mitochondria, improving cellular energy production and slowing biological aging.
What IHHT training involves →NAD+ IV Therapy
Restores declining NAD+ levels -- a central molecule in cellular repair, DNA maintenance, and sirtuin activation for healthy aging.
What NAD+ infusion involves →Peptide Therapy
Bioactive peptides stimulate growth hormone release, tissue repair, and immune regulation for comprehensive anti-aging support.
What peptide therapy involves →Hormone Therapy
Bioidentical hormone optimization restores thyroid, adrenal, and sex hormone levels to counteract age-related hormonal decline.

Common questions about the longevity programme
What does the longevity programme include?
Five areas: preventive diagnostics, hormone optimization, a medical detox programme, gut health and regeneration, and a dedicated men's health programme. They combine advanced laboratory diagnostics, hormonal and metabolic assessment, gut health analysis and targeted biological therapies to identify and address the drivers of accelerated ageing.
Is the programme inpatient, and how long does it take?
The programme is planned individually after diagnostics. It takes place at our 70-bed hospital in Bad Aibling, Bavaria, and runs as an inpatient or outpatient programme depending on what your findings call for. The first step is a video consultation in English before you travel.
Which therapies are used in the longevity programme?
Depending on your findings: the senolytic protocol, IHHT oxygen therapy, NAD+ IV therapy, peptide therapy and bioidentical hormone therapy. Each is described on its own page, and a therapy is included only when a finding calls for it.
Which physicians lead the longevity programme?
Dr. Julian Douwes, Chief Medical Officer, develops all new treatment protocols, working alongside Dr. Martin Rößner, Chief Physician for Internal Medicine and Longevity, with the support of Dr. Daniela Hudi in hormone optimization and longevity medicine.
What does the programme cost?
There is no fixed price. After our physicians have reviewed your findings, you receive an individual estimate that lists the diagnostics, the daily inpatient rate and each therapy block. Treatment is self-pay; the itemised invoice can be submitted to a US insurer for out-of-network review. We cannot promise reimbursement.
