What it is

Three resorts on the same medical method: Lans in Austria reported from €5,390, Sylt from €6,480 and Tegernsee, the flagship, from €8,435, each for seven nights including the Classic medical programme and the least expensive room. Classic Plus extends the diagnostic component to a reported €6,440 at Lans and €7,546 at Sylt, and Sylt sells a four-night Longevity Check from €4,844. The method centres on the Lanserhof Energy Cure, modified fasting and gut treatment, with diagnostics supporting a stay rather than being the product. Lanserhof publishes prices only inside downloadable PDF brochures, so figures here come from a named secondary source and reported entry points vary with room category and season. LANS Medicum in Hamburg and Lanserhof at The Arts Club in London run outpatient check-ups and concierge medicine on the same brand without the residential element.

The evidence behind what it offers

We grade tests, not companies. These are our standing assessments of the modalities this provider offers, and they apply identically to everyone offering them.

Baseline evidence grade B: Consistent evidence of benefit, but from trials with surrogate endpoints, single trials, or strong longitudinal cohorts.
Cardiopulmonary exercise test

Cardiorespiratory fitness carries one of the strongest mortality associations of anything measurable, with no observed upper limit of benefit. The best-evidenced measurement in the category.

Not offered: Whole-body MRI, Multi-cancer early detection blood test, Genomics and gene panels.

How to read the price

Every private programme sells an addition to something you already have. In Germany that something is Check-up 35, free every three years from age 35, covering blood pressure, fasting glucose, a full lipid panel, urinalysis and a consultation. Those are the cheapest high-yield measurements in medicine and a meaningful share of people buying private programmes have never used them.

So the question is never whether Lanserhof beats nothing. It is what the increment buys.

What to ask before booking

  1. What is the total price, in writing, before the consultation? Lanserhof does not publish a price page, so the figure on this page comes from a third party and may not match your quote.
  2. Which cardiovascular and metabolic assessment is included, and how does it map onto the guideline? A programme covering functional capacity and vascular status is doing serious work; one leaning on a lipid panel is repeating your statutory check.
  3. Will I get a full ergospirometry report with a ventilatory threshold, and will it be repeated so I can see whether training changed it? Fitness is the rare measurement that is both strongly prognostic and reliably modifiable, which makes the second test as valuable as the first.
  4. What happens after the report: is there a named physician who owns the follow-up, or does the responsibility return to my own doctor?
  5. What is the median total invoice, as opposed to the advertised programme price? Additional recommendations after the initial consultation are normal in this category and are not usually in the headline figure.

Profile

Nine attributes across three axes, recorded and not scored. We grade tests, never companies, so there is no total here and no winner: the axes pull against each other, and no provider in the Index holds all nine. A programme priced for annual repetition will not publish deep tier structures, and one that declines routine imaging cannot lead on imaging volume. Read it as a description of what this provider is.

Questions this article answers

How much does Lanserhof cost?
Lanserhof charges €5,390 for a seven-night stay including accommodation, rising to €8,435 for its highest published tier. The provider does not publish a price page, so this comes from a named secondary source, checked 2026-09-07, and may differ from the quote you receive.
What is included in a Lanserhof programme?
Three resorts on the same medical method: Lans in Austria reported from €5,390, Sylt from €6,480 and Tegernsee, the flagship, from €8,435, each for seven nights including the Classic medical programme and the least expensive room. Classic Plus extends the diagnostic component to a reported €6,440 at Lans and €7,546 at Sylt, and Sylt sells a four-night Longevity Check from €4,844. Biomarker count: not published.
Is Lanserhof worth it compared with a free statutory check?
Check-up 35 (statutory, Germany) is free and covers the cheap high-yield basics: Physical examination, blood pressure, fasting glucose, total cholesterol with LDL, HDL and triglycerides, urinalysis, a one-off hepatitis B and C screen, and a consultation. What Lanserhof adds at €5,390 is the layer the statutory system does not fund at all. The significant addition is a cardiopulmonary exercise test, which carries the highest standing grade we award to anything in preventive screening: cardiorespiratory fitness has one of the strongest mortality associations of any measurable variable, with no observed upper limit of benefit, and it appears in fewer than half the programmes we catalogue. Our standing grade for each of these is on this page, so you can see which part of the increment the evidence supports before you decide.
Does Lanserhof include a whole-body MRI?
No. Lanserhof does not offer whole-body MRI at any published tier. Since our assessment of whole-body MRI screening is grade C, meaning no randomised evidence of mortality benefit in asymptomatic adults, its absence is not a shortcoming.
Who is Lanserhof best for?
Somebody who will genuinely change how they eat, sleep and move, and will do that better away from their own kitchen. A residential stay is a behavioural intervention with medical supervision, and judging it on modality count misses what it is for. Whoever you are, use your statutory entitlement first: it is free, it covers the measurements with the longest outcome record, and a meaningful share of people buying private programmes have never had it.
How long does a Lanserhof appointment take?
Programmes start at seven nights, and the reported pricing assumes that length. Shorter formats exist at some locations but the method is designed around a full stay.
What are the alternatives to Lanserhof?
On the same model and at the nearest prices: SHA Wellness Clinic in Alicante, ES from ~€3,500, Chenot Palace Weggis in Weggis, CH from ~CHF 8,000 and Palazzo Fiuggi in Fiuggi, IT from €12,270. Compare within kind before across it, because a per-visit fee and a per-week residential rate are not the same number. The full comparison across all 16 providers we catalogue is in the Baseline Index.
Where is Lanserhof located?
Lanserhof is based in Lans, AT, and also serves DE, UK. It operates as residential programme.
