Your Practice for Functional Medicine & Longevity

Basel membership clinic pairing functional medicine, longevity diagnostics, IHHT, NAD+ infusions, and health coaching

About

Origin Health is a Basel practice for functional medicine and longevity medicine, led by Joris Budweg, MD and Manuel Puntschuh, MD. Both are FMH-certified specialists in general internal medicine. Budweg leads the functional-medicine track for chronic fatigue, gut, hormone, autoimmune, stress, and root-cause workups. Puntschuh leads the longevity track around biological-age testing, epigenetics, mitochondrial health, NAD+ infusions, IHHT, and hallmarks-of-aging protocols. Care is structured through monthly memberships, with longevity coach Sarah Kantelberg supporting sleep, stress, nutrition, movement, and hormone-health implementation between physician visits.

What to Know

Signature approach

Origin Health separates the work into two connected tracks. Budweg handles functional medicine: root-cause diagnostics for fatigue, gut health, hormones, autoimmune patterns, stress, and chronic symptoms. Puntschuh handles longevity medicine: biological age, epigenetic markers, mitochondrial function, metabolic health, NAD+, IHHT, and hallmarks-of-aging interventions. The membership model then keeps the plan moving through follow-up, coaching, InBody tracking, and repeat testing.

What sets them apart

  • Two clear medical tracks. One FMH internist leads functional medicine, and one FMH internist leads longevity medicine, giving patients a direct path into the right type of workup.
  • Membership follow-through. Monthly plans add check-ins, coaching, InBody analysis, and doctor access so the care does not stop after the first lab review.
  • Swiss preventive-health network. Puntschuh also works with Aeon and AVEA Life, while Budweg brings Basel primary-care, hospital, and publication experience into the functional-medicine side.

Before You Book

  • Know the tier before you start. Focus, Optimize, and Elite Care differ sharply in access, consult frequency, and doctor availability.
  • Add-ons matter. Check-ups, IHHT, infusions, supplements, and some advanced testing can sit outside the monthly membership.
  • Plan around Basel hours. The clinic runs Tuesday through Friday with a midday closure and no weekend hours.
  • In-person care. Public materials point to visits at Clarastrasse 19 in Basel rather than telehealth.
  • Website timing. Some pages still mention opening language, but the clinic is operational based on Google reviews and listings.
