Getting started
What is a Healthspan Score?
Your Healthspan Score is a composite number (0-100) derived from the 400+ parameter assessment across 12 organ systems. It tells you how well your body is aging compared to your chronological age — and, more importantly, what you can change.
How is this different from an annual health checkup?
A standard checkup tests 20-30 markers to detect disease. Every Genoryx package starts with the 400+ parameter entry assessment, built to find risk early. Our reference ranges are longevity-optimized — not just "normal." We measure what your body is doing right, not just what's gone wrong.
Who should book an assessment?
Anyone who wants to understand their health at a deeper level. Most of our patients are professionals aged 30-55 who feel fine but want data-driven optimization — not reactive sick care. If you've ever wondered why you're tired despite "normal" blood work, this is for you.
Is this physician-supervised?
Every protocol at Genoryx is designed and supervised by Dr. R. Brahmananda Reddy (MBBS; MSc Dermatology, University of Hertfordshire, UK), with 13+ years of clinical practice. No technicians running procedures. No AI prescribing treatments. Physician-led from assessment to protocol.
What happens after the assessment?
You receive your Healthspan Score report with a detailed breakdown by organ system. Then you sit with Dr. Reddy for a 60-minute consultation where he walks you through every finding and builds your personalized longevity protocol. Quarterly retesting tracks your progress.
What does it cost?
We offer three membership tiers: Recovery (₹20,000-₹25,000/month, 8 sessions), Performance (₹45,000-₹60,000/month, 12 sessions), and Elite Longevity (₹90,000-₹1,50,000/month, unlimited sessions). Individual sessions range from ₹4,000 to ₹30,000 depending on the protocol. Every tier starts with the 400+ parameter entry assessment and includes physician-designed protocols and progress tracking. Schedule a consultation to find the right fit.
Hard questions
What if everything comes back normal? Was it worth it?
You leave with a measured baseline instead of an assumption, and a physician who has shown you which numbers are comfortably fine and which sit at the edge of normal. A normal result is a good outcome, not a prompt to find something to treat: every recommendation has to trace to a measured marker or your history. The value grows with the next reading, which shows whether you are holding steady.
I had a full-body checkup recently. Do I need another one?
Not the same tests again. A standard checkup is built to find disease that is already there, and it usually leaves out markers that move years earlier, such as ApoB, Lp(a), fasting insulin and hs-CRP. Bring your recent report to the consultation, or upload it to Oraia for a free first read, and your physician will show you what it already covers and what it does not.
Will you try to sell me IV drips?
No. IV therapy is offered only after a physician has screened you and only when a measured reason supports it. We never bundle spa or aesthetic treatments into an assessment, and the assessment and consultation can be booked on their own.
What happens if you find something serious?
A physician tells you directly at your consultation, never through an automated report alone, and explains what the finding does and does not mean. If it needs a specialist or care beyond what a clinic provides, your physician refers you onward and tells you how urgent it is.
What can these tests not tell me?
A single reading is noisy, and different biological-age clocks can disagree for the same person. A biological-age number is context, not a diagnosis, and most reference groups behind these clocks are not Indian. Blood tests also cannot see structure: they do not replace imaging, cancer screening or a physical examination.
What happens to my data?
Your data is stored in India, in Mumbai. Oraia uses AI models from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic under terms that exclude your data from training. We never sell personal data, and you can delete your Oraia data from your results page at any time. The privacy policy lists every provider and your rights under the DPDP Act 2023.
Testing and biomarkers
Why do you measure 400+ parameters when hospitals test 30?
A standard panel is built to detect existing disease. Ours is built to measure the trajectory toward it. Markers like ApoB, Lp(a), fasting insulin, and hs-CRP move decades before a diagnosis — and most are absent from routine checkups. More markers also means fewer blind spots across the 12 organ systems we map.
What does "longevity-optimized reference ranges" mean?
"Normal" lab ranges describe the average of a population that includes the unwell. Optimal ranges describe where the long-term risk data is lowest. Sitting at the edge of normal can still mean decades of accumulating risk — our physicians read your results against optimal, not just normal.
What is biological age?
Biological age is an estimate of how far your body has aged, calculated from measurements such as blood markers, DNA methylation or fitness, rather than counted from your birth date. Two people born in the same year can have different biological ages.
Which biological age test is the most accurate?
There is no single best test. Among epigenetic clocks, GrimAge is one of the strongest predictors of lifespan and healthspan. Blood-based PhenoAge is cheaper and uses routine tests. Each carries error of several years for one person, so we read more than one source where possible and follow the trend.
How is this different from ordering an at-home kit online?
The lab science can be similar; everything around it is not. A kit gives you a number. Genoryx measures your epigenetic age alongside the 400+ parameter entry assessment, and a physician explains the result with you and retests to show the trend.
How long until I get results?
Epigenetic analysis is lab-processed and typically returns within a few weeks of your sample collection. Your physician consultation is scheduled as soon as the full picture — blood panels, DEXA, VO2 max, epigenetic age — is ready.
Why does South Asian physiology need different attention?
South Asians develop cardiovascular disease roughly a decade earlier than Western populations, and insulin resistance appears at lower body weights. Reference data built on Western cohorts under-estimates that risk. Our physicians interpret your markers in that context — it is one of the reasons physician review matters more than a printed report.
Can biological age change?
Some biological-age measures change with training, sleep and diet, though effects in trials so far are modest. No therapy we offer is an anti-ageing treatment. Members track their trend through quarterly retesting, and no outcome is promised in advance — that is what makes this medicine rather than marketing.
Treatments and safety
What evidence standard do Genoryx protocols follow?
Every protocol is physician-designed and calibrated to your biomarkers. We are conservative by design: interventions with strong evidence are core protocol; promising-but-early science is offered with honest framing; and we will tell you plainly when the evidence does not support something — even if it is fashionable.
Is NAD+ IV therapy safe?
When medically screened and physician-supervised, NAD+ infusions are generally well tolerated. They are prescribed only where a physician finds a clinical reason. Every Genoryx protocol begins with a medical review of your history, medications, and contraindications — that screening is exactly what separates a clinic from a drip bar.
How long does an NAD+ IV session take?
Plan for 2–3 hours. NAD+ has to be infused slowly; our team adjusts the rate through the session.
Do I need an assessment before NAD+ therapy?
Yes. Every Genoryx plan starts with the 400+ parameter entry assessment and a 60-minute physician consultation. The physician then decides whether NAD+ is clinically indicated for you at all.
What does a VO2 max test involve?
A graded cardiopulmonary exercise test — you run or ride with a breath-analysis mask while intensity increases stepwise. It measures your maximum oxygen uptake, ventilatory thresholds, and training zones. A physician reviews the result with you.
Can I combine testing with recovery sessions?
Yes — that is the design. Test, get your physician-built protocol, then use cryotherapy, compression, red light, PEMF, or HBOT sessions calibrated to your training load at either clinic.
Is any of this a diagnosis or treatment recommendation?
No. Everything on this page is educational. Diagnosis and treatment decisions at Genoryx are made only by our physicians, after your assessment, in consultation with you.

What is Oraia, and does it replace my doctor?
Oraia is the Genoryx health-literacy tool. It gives you an AI first read of a questionnaire, a blood report or a face photo within minutes. A Genoryx physician reviews it when you book a consult. Results are not a diagnosis.
Still have a question?
