Imagine walking into your medspa for a routine wellness check and walking out with the power to detect over 50 types of cancer.
Vibrant Skin Bar (VSB), an upscale beauty and wellness destination in Arcadia, is now offering one of the most powerful screening tools in the world and you don’t need a hospital to get it, representatives of the brand tell the Digital Free Press.
Galleri multi-cancer early detection test is a first-of-its-kind blood test that can screen for dozens of cancers in one draw including some of the deadliest and hardest to detect, like pancreatic, ovarian, esophageal, and liver cancers, according to a press release.
It also looks for cancers with no current routine screening guidelines, such as bile duct, head and neck, and blood cancers like lymphoma and leukemia.
“Beauty means nothing without health. Our clients are investing in their longevity just as much as their appearance,” said Kristina Cadwell, M.S., PA-C, and founder of Vibrant Skin Bar. “We’re giving people access to life-saving science in a space that feels more like a retreat than a clinic. This is what next-level wellness looks like.”
It’s a trend that’s sending shockwaves through the medical community: cancer diagnoses among people in their 30s and 40s are climbing, and they’re happening earlier, faster, and with fewer warning signs.
Unlike routine screenings that target just a few cancers, Galleri looks for cancer DNA fragments in the bloodstream, offering a comprehensive snapshot of what’s happening beneath the surface.
“One vial of blood can change everything,” Ms. Cadwell said. “This test looks for more than 50 cancers — many with no current screening options. Our patients are proactive, intelligent, and unwilling to leave their health to chance.”
The Galleri®test isn’t available at every clinic or medspa. VSB is one of the few boutique wellness providers in Arizona offering it and they’ve already had a flood of interest. The ideal patient? Adults over 40, anyone with a family history of cancer, prior diagnoses, those on hormone therapy, or people undergoing metabolic enhancement treatments like NAD+.
“Glowing skin is great,” said Cadwell. “But glowing from the inside out — that’s what our clients really want. We’re in the business of preventive luxury.”
