About Us

A Different Approach to Longevity

Founded in Victoria, BC, we are a healthtech startup with a mission to extend the healthy years of life, known as healthspan.

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

MyHealthspan empowers everyday people to make every single moment of every day meaningful through a comprehensive, evidence-based longevity program that helps you live a longer, fuller life.

Our Story

We believe that a longer life isn't necessarily a better one unless it's filled with meaningful moments. Our Every Day Longevity Program empowers you proactively checkoff the focus areas of longevity while helping you live passionately, proactively, and presently. We built MyHealthspan out of a desire to go deeper than anyone was pursuing in longevity while scaling out the beneficial reach to anyone who wanted it. By focusing on both the little things and the milestones, we help you make every day count, leading to a long life that you love.

Our Customers

Our customers are everyday people who understand that life is about the moments that take our breath away. They seek to live passionately, proactively, and presently, making every single moment of every day meaningful. They value both the little things and the milestones and are looking for a program that empowers them to measure and manage their health, so they can live their best lives every day.

We intentionally avoid making the pursuit of data the end in itself. While precise measurements and evidence-based tests are essential, we emphasize the human experience and the meaningful moments of everyday life.
