Measure first. Then act.
We measure what ageing does to the body. Then we act, and measure again.

The IO8 Living Lab, near Lisbon, is where we test instruments and protocols on ourselves before offering them to anyone.
It is a real house, not a clinic: the place where your test takes place, and where Experts in Residence come to work.
Explore the Living LabWhat we measure
We measure with instruments, not questionnaires.
PNOĒ reads your metabolism from your breath. Polar H10 follows your heart, Omron X7 your blood pressure, the oximeter your oxygen, the grip dynamometer your strength. Vagus nerve stimulation is used for recovery.
Arriving: the VeloNix exercise station, for VO2 max testing from November 2026.
