INVESTING IN THE
ONE ASSET YOU CANNOT REPLACE
Treat peak health and clarity like an asset class. Disciplined self investment can reduce downside, sharpen decisions, and compound returns across everything you own.

For ultra-high net worth investors, investing in yourself is not a platitude. It is capital allocation to the asset that drives every outcome in the portfolio: time, cognition, and decision quality. The Kusnacht Practice in Switzerland makes that idea executable by pairing medically led programs with a hospitality standard built for privacy, continuity, and measurable improvement. Its offering spans residential treatment and longevity focused diagnostics, delivered through a five-star, one client per villa model on Lake Zurich. The design choice signals an emphasis on outcomes and discretion rather than volume.
The philosophy is deliberately proactive. “At The Kusnacht Practice our goal is to be proactive and preemptive and the core purpose of these Health Assessments is the early detection of imbalances, pathological biomarkers and potential risk factors, before they manifest themselves as disease symptoms,” says Eduardo Greghi, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. The day clinic format condenses a wide range of screenings and consultations into an efficient two-to-three-day schedule that keeps clients in comfort and out of public view.
Operational structure is a differentiator. Residential care is truly private, with one client per villa and a live in counsellor available at all hours. A butler who is a trained gourmet chef, a dedicated concierge, a chauffeur, and full housekeeping remove the friction points that often derail recovery for time pressed principals and families. The clinical team can create an in-villa office suite with secure connectivity so that essential work continues without compromising treatment cadence. Appointments and services are sequenced to reduce decision fatigue, and staff coordinate quietly in the background, so the day runs on time. The emphasis is not on pampering for its own sake, but on protecting attention, safeguarding confidentiality, and maintaining momentum while meaningful clinical work gets done.
Clinical architecture matters as much as the setting. The proprietary BIO R framework uses advanced diagnostics to personalize treatment at the biochemical level. Programs integrate precision medicine, mental health, sleep, nutrition, and habit architecture, and they are delivered by physicians, psychiatrists, and longevity specialists working to a single plan. “Our testing is exceptionally deep and broad, identifying all factors that may put an individual at risk of future disease,” says Dr. Laszlo Urogi, Chief Medical Officer. “For each client, the results provide the cornerstone for a targeted treatment or lifestyle adjustment plan.” For clients who think like operators the process is familiar. Establish a baseline, run the intervention, and maintain continuity with clear data and accountability.
For principals who want a concentrated diagnostic deep dive, The Kusnacht Practice offers comprehensive health assessments that extend far beyond a typical executive physical. These combine medical, psychiatric, and longevity modules, from full body and brain MRI to epigenetics, toxin profiling, and advanced hormonal testing. Prices are published and transparent. Core tracks start around CHF 19,000 with the option to scale to a VIP configuration. That clarity allows an investor to attach a shadow value to improved focus, stamina, and risk reduction over the year and to compare the spend to the opportunity cost of impaired decision making.
For more complex cases or for clients who need a true reset, residential treatment begins at a published CHF 117,300 per week and is self-pay. The absence of insurer billing aligns incentives around discretion and outcomes. For business leaders who cannot step out of role, the Leaders Retreat compresses the model into a high intensity format with six to eight one on one sessions per day and scheduled work time inside the villa. The objective is early detection and early course correction around burnout, mood, sleep, and resilience before those issues appear in boardrooms or family dynamics.
The finance case rests on two pillars that will be familiar to any experienced allocator. First is compounding. Small improvements in sleep quality, stress regulation, and executive function accumulate into better deal selection, steadier judgement under pressure, and fewer unforced errors over many years. Second is downside protection. Averted health events and reputational crises often preserve far more value than they cost to prevent. When programs are clinically governed, data rich, and delivered in an environment that removes barriers to adherence, the risk adjusted return on self-capital improves in a way that can be modeled and reviewed like any operating plan.
For families who plan in decades the most productive allocation in a given year may be the one that upgrades the decision maker. In a world where capital is abundant but focused attention is scarce, The Kusnacht Practice offers a credible way to buy back high-quality hours through a mix of precision diagnostics, private residential care, and structured aftercare. Framed as an investment decision rather than a lifestyle purchase, it becomes another line in the family balance sheet that supports both wellbeing and long-term performance.
If you already budget for tax, legal, and family governance, placing a disciplined self-investment line- item next to them is rational. With Swiss clinical rigor, a measured cadence of two-to-three-day assessments or two-to-four-week residential care, and a confidentiality standard built for UHNW families, The Kusnacht Practice offers an investable way to buy back high-quality hours and safeguard the decision maker at the center of the enterprise.
