House of Gaia Longevity Center and Wellness Resort opens doors in Batangas
In Greek mythology, Gaia is known as the goddess of the earth and the mother of every living thing that resides within it. She is revered as a nurturing figure who nourishes living beings, personifying nature itself—ever-loving as she watches over the well-being of all.
This idea of nurturing the well-being of living beings lies at the heart of the establishment of the first lifespan extension center in the Philippines, the House of Gaia Longevity Center and Wellness Resort.
Nestled in its bountiful sanctuary in Lipa, Batangas, the House of Gaia serves as a world-class facility dedicated to reversing biological aging and chronic progressive diseases through the combination of ancient healing practices, lifestyle modification, and modern scientific discoveries.
At the forefront of this revolutionary center is its founder, Mike Chan, whose mission to extend the lives of House of Gaia members began seven years ago after receiving the results of a medical check-up. To his surprise, despite being a proud athlete who spent a lot of time at the gym, he learned that he was pre-diabetic at the age of 47, just as he was about to become a father.
“I asked the doctor, ‘Doctor, how can this be? I’m in the gym six days a week, I eat organic eggs, brown rice, whole wheat pasta, how can this be?’ And the doctor told me, ‘Mr. Chan, at 47, this is normal. This is normal with aging, and this is something that you will just have to accept,’” Chan recalled.
Driven by the desire to live longer for his child, Chan began researching how to improve his physical health and delved into the realm of medicine. After enrolling in Stanford Medicine’s Nutrition and Science course, Chan met oncologist and internal medicine specialist Evelyn Bischof, who is now the House of Gaia’s chief medical officer.
Through his studies in longevity medicine, which utilizes aging biomarkers, longitudinal data tracking, and AI to monitor one’s aging pace, Chan founded House of Gaia to help its members reach the age of 100.
The center offers several longevity interventions, including the hyperoxic chamber, photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), sensory deprivation, Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF), and Electromagnetic Recovery for muscle recovery, as well as blood-based biological markers.
In addition, the House of Gaia provides treatments designed to support optimal health and well-being. These include various types of massages, facial services, laser treatments, infusions, and medical services.
“What most people don’t realize is that the technology to significantly extend human lifespan is already here,” said Chan. “So the future is really, really bright. You just have to live long enough to get there.”
House of Gaia’s longevity programs include the Platinum, Gold Premium, and Gold programs. To apply for any of these programs, visit www.houseofgaia.ph/application.html or email [email protected].
