Health Branding Case Study: Transforming i-Thrive Healthspan Clinic
Introduction
Strong health branding helps clinics build trust and stand out. In today’s competitive market, a clear brand is essential.
This case study shows how we helped i-Thrive Healthspan Clinic build a strong and modern identity. Through strategic health and wellness branding, we positioned them as a premium clinic in the UK.
As a specialized clinic design agency, our goal was simple: create a brand that matched their expertise and ambition.
About i-Thrive Healthspan Clinic
i-Thrive was founded by Jodi and Mark Zibser. Their mission was to combine advanced diagnostics with personalized coaching.
They offer:
DEXA scans and metabolic testing
Cardiovascular assessments
Functional movement analysis
Fitness and nutrition coaching
Longevity programs
Their approach is data-driven and focused on long-term health.
But their brand did not reflect this level of quality. They needed professional wellness branding services to communicate their value.
“We conduct evidence-based tests to help people identify opportunities to improve their healthspan and develop customized coaching programs to help them thrive.”
The Challenge
i-Thrive faced three main problems.
1. A Fragmented Market
Many clinics offer diagnostics or coaching. Few offer both. This creates confusion for clients.
2. Weak Brand Differentiation
Without a strong identity, i-Thrive blended in with competitors.
They needed a clear position in the market.
3. No Unified Visual System
There was no consistent logo, color system, or design structure. The brand lacked authority.
To grow, they needed a strategic health branding solution.
Our Health Branding Strategy
We followed a structured process to build a strong foundation.
Phase 1: Brand Discovery
We started with strategy sessions to define:
Their core message
Their target audience
Their competitive advantage
Their long-term vision
We identified their key difference:
Integrated diagnostics and personalized coaching focused on longevity. This became the base of the new brand.
Phase 2: Market Research
We studied:
Trends in health and wellness branding
Competitor positioning
Client expectations
Premium healthcare brands
This helped us create a brand that felt modern, credible, and distinct.
Phase 3: Visual Identity Design
Logo Design
This phase focused on complete brand identity development, including logo, color, and typography systems. We created a modern logo with a geometric arrow symbol.
The arrow represents:
Progress
Forward movement
Measurable results
The logo is simple, scalable, and easy to recognize.
Color Strategy
We selected a vibrant coral-red to express:
Energy
Vitality
Confidence
Neutral tones balance the palette and add professionalism. This supports strong and clear health branding.
Typography
We chose a clean sans-serif typeface. It communicates:
Precision
Modern thinking
Scientific credibility
The result is bold but refined.
Phase 4: Brand Guidelines
To ensure consistency, we developed a complete brand system.
It includes:
Logo rules
Color usage
Typography hierarchy
Layout structure
Photography direction
This ensures the brand remains strong across all platforms.
Results
The new brand created measurable impact.
Clear Market Position
The updated identity highlights i-Thrive’s integrated approach. It separates
them from diagnostic-only or coaching-only clinics.
Stronger Client Perception
Clients now see i-Thrive as:
A science-based authority
A long-term health partner
A premium clinic
Improved Digital Presence
After the rebrand, the clinic improved:
Website clarity
Social media consistency
Marketing materials
Brand recognition
Their health and wellness branding now supports business growth.
Why Health Branding Matters
Healthcare is built on trust. A weak brand creates doubt. A strong brand builds confidence.
Effective health branding helps clinics:
Attract better clients
Increase perceived value
Support premium pricing
Improve conversions
Build long-term loyalty
Professional wellness branding services give clinics a competitive edge.
Conclusion
This project shows how strategic health branding can transform a clinic’s market position. By combining strategy and design, we helped i-Thrive become a strong player in the UK wellness space.
