The Spa

      The Pritikin Longevity Center also offers the finest, most technologically advanced cosmetic/medical treatments, such as intense pulsed light, botox injections, and Restylane, all administered in-house by our outstanding skin care physician and surgeon, a board-certified expert on the safest, most effective approaches for skin treatments.
      After an active day in class, indulge yourself with therapeutic spa amenities in our 10,000 square-foot spa oasis. The bliss never ends! Enjoy massage therapies such as shiatsu, Swedish, hot stone, aromatherapy, Trager, neuromuscular therapy, reflexology, and deep tissue. Pamper yourself with a variety of facials and wraps as well as deluxe paraffin treatments, revitalizing eye treatments, and purifying back treatments. Relax in an indoor or outdoor whirlpool, steam room, and sauna.
      Your Pritikin Longevity Center® board-certified physician will conduct a complete health history and physical exam designed to assess your current status and risk factors. Your evaluation includes a blood chemistry profile, including your glucose (sugar), cholesterol, and triglyceride levels, as well as a medication review, complete dietary analysis, and weight-loss planning.

Wellness       To determine your safest and most effective exercise program, you will be given a cardiometabolic stress test. The results are used to design your personalized exercise prescription. 
      State-of-the-art panels, including inflammatory markers, comprehensive cholesterol analysis, and insulin and blood sugar sensitivity, are repeated weekly, providing a highly effective means to gauge your progress. Your doctor will sit down with you to review the results, and help you develop a long-term plan to improve your health and possibly even reverse existing disease.

         Dexa Body Composition Testing
: This is the most accurate and advanced method for assessing fat and lean tissue in each region of your body. That's important because the location of your fat tissue may be associated with your risk of heart disease, stroke, and hypertension. The test also does an excellent job of showing you how lean you're becoming. It's a real motivator!
        IMT Testing
: Carotid Ultrasound Intimal-Medial Thickness (IMT) testing is a 100% safe, highly effective, pain-free way of showing heart attack and stroke risk. For the last several years, it has been used as a research tool in universities nationwide. It has just become available to the public in a few select heath facilities, one of which is the Pritikin Longevity Center. IMT testing is such a breakthrough in cardiovascular health that it is now part of our standard medical recommendations for guests at elevated risk for a heart attack or stroke.
