Thrive Assessment

After an initial mindset intake call and required program form completion, each Vail Healthspan program will begin with a Thrive Assessment to determine your overall health baseline. Program progress will be tracked overtime through a mid-point Mini-Thrive (Elevate and Summit tracks) and final Thrive Assessment (all tracks), in addition to scheduled check-ins with your Healthspan Care Team.

Thrive Assessment includes:

Comprehensive Blood Draw Panel (fasted)** a curated Healthspan functional medicine panel, designed to detect underlying risks, uncover hidden imbalances, and provide a foundation for optimizing long-term health.
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Test (fasted) assessing metabolic health.
VO₂ Max Test a measure of oxygen-processing capacity, and the most powerful predictor of metabolic age and longevity.
InBody Scan analyzing current body composition.
Kinetisense 3D Functional Movement Assessment a markerless movement analysis.
Keiser Strength Training Assessment testing lower body, push and pull strength.
Dynamometer Grip Strength Assessment assessing overall physical strength.

Additional Thrive Tests available for our Summit track include:

Blood Lactate Test evaluating endurance, recovery and performance capacity.
Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) Coaching closely monitoring blood glucose levels to improve metabolic health and blood sugar regulation.
