Krissy Vann | Host, All Things Fitness and Wellness
Life Time has opened its latest location in Evanston, Illinois, marking the company’s first new club of 2025 and further expanding its MIORA Performance and Longevity Clinic. The Evanston facility is only the second Life Time location to feature the MIORA clinic, signaling a growing emphasis on personalized health, performance, and longevity services within the company’s portfolio.
Located near the shores of Lake Michigan, the 60,000-square-foot facility is Life Time’s 14th location in Illinois and the second in the country to offer MIORA. The first MIORA clinic debuted in Minnesota, and with this latest expansion, the company is broadening access to its medically driven wellness offerings. The clinic provides a range of services including metabolic assessments, bloodwork analysis, peptide therapy—including GLP-1s when deemed appropriate—hormone replacement therapy, infrared sauna, cryotherapy, and other performance-based treatments.
“Life Time Evanston is the first of many planned 2025 openings and also marks the expansion of our MIORA performance and longevity clinic beyond Minnesota, allowing even more people to experience the multidimensional approach we’re taking to address all aspects of health and wellness,” said Parham Javaheri, Life Time Executive Vice President, President of Club Operations, and Chief of Property Development. “We’re excited to extend our unparalleled Life Time experience to Evanston in a prime location that will serve this community and bring renewed energy to the downtown area.”
The MIORA clinic is based on the Metabolic Code, a proprietary assessment model developed by Jim LaValle, Life Time’s Chief Science Officer. The system integrates comprehensive bloodwork analysis with individualized health strategies designed to optimize metabolic function, longevity, and performance. A team of medical professionals, including physicians, registered dietitians, and personal trainers, deliver customized health programs aimed at addressing both preventative and performance-focused needs.
The Evanston location also includes Life Time’s signature athletic offerings, from group training programs to studio fitness classes and a full-service recovery zone. However, the MIORA clinic sets this location apart, reinforcing the company’s push into medically backed wellness solutions.
