What Is Biohacking? The Biohacking Stack Red Light Therapy Surf Recovery Medical Supervision IV Therapy Doctor-Led Programs Book Now FAQVultun is a biohacking and wellness experience in Siargao. Red light therapy, IV infusions, NAD+, breathwork, and meditation, with visiting physicians for the doctor-led work. Everything here is grounded in science, even the practices that feel esoteric. We create the conditions for your body to heal, perform, and grow.
You already know something needs to change. Maybe you’ve been running on caffeine and discipline for years and the math is starting to show. Maybe you moved to Siargao to reset and realized the island won’t do it for you. Maybe you’ve built a routine that works at home and you need a space that keeps up with you while you travel. Either way, you’re looking for something that actually works.
Vultun is a biohacking and wellness experience in Siargao. Red light therapy, IV infusions, NAD+, breathwork, meditation, and a visiting medical team for the doctor-led work. Everything here is grounded in science, even the practices that feel esoteric. We are not a spa. We are not a gym. We are a system built around the idea that your body already has the intelligence to heal, perform, and grow. We create the conditions.
Every protocol here started the same way: I tried it on myself first. Biohacking rebuilt my health from the ground up. Now we’re building a space where you can access the same tools, backed by a team of physicians and practitioners who make sure everything is safe, sequenced, and built for you.
THE COMPLETE BIOHACKING PROTOCOL
Five modalities. One system. Built from lived experience.
RED LIGHT THERAPY
NOW OPENPhotobiomodulation
A dark room. A warm glow on your skin. Ten minutes later your cells are producing more energy, repairing faster, and quieting inflammation. The science is real. The experience is simple. PHP 800 a session, PHP 3,500 for five, PHP 6,000 for ten.
Learn more →IV THERAPY
NOW OPENNutrient Infusions & Recovery
What you swallow absorbs 30-80%. What goes directly into your bloodstream absorbs 100%. Six everyday drips from PHP 3,500, plus the NAD+ line and NMN. Recovery you can feel the same day.
Learn more →BREATHWORK
IN DEVELOPMENTGuided Breathwork & Meditation
The breath is the bridge between effort and rest. Before effort it prepares your nervous system. After it, it brings you down. Ten days of silent meditation taught Jay what the breath can actually do.

Learn more →RED LIGHT THERAPY (PHOTOBIOMODULATION)
NOW OPEN
Ten minutes of stillness. Your cells do the rest.
A dark room. A panel of red and near-infrared light. You stand in front of it for ten minutes. Warm glow on your skin. Nothing dramatic happens in the room. The dramatic part happens inside your tissue. These wavelengths penetrate deep, reaching muscle, joint, and bone. They activate your mitochondria to produce more energy. Tissue repair accelerates. Inflammation quiets. Collagen production increases. Professional sports teams use this exact technology for recovery between competitions.
Published research confirms red light therapy measurably reduces muscle damage markers after exercise. The wavelengths (660nm red, 850nm near-infrared) penetrate 5-7cm into tissue. The science is established. The application is simple: stand in front of the light.
- Faster muscle repair between surf sessions
- Less joint pain in shoulders, knees, and ankles
- Better skin from increased collagen production
- Deeper sleep through circadian rhythm support
Ten to fifteen minutes, 3-5 times per week. That’s it.
PHP 800 a single session. PHP 3,500 for five. PHP 6,000 for ten. Add it to any IV drip for PHP 600.
Book it with any IV drip in the same visit.
BIOHACKING FOR SURFERS: THE POST-SURF RECOVERY PROTOCOL
You surf. We handle the after.
Three days of Cloud 9 and your shoulders know it. Your lower back tightens. Your pop-up loses a half-second. You can feel the week accumulating in your body, and no amount of stretching on the beach fixes it. Siargao demands more from your body than most surf destinations because you actually surf here. Every day. In warm water that keeps your muscles loose enough to ignore the damage until it stacks up. We built this protocol for that exact situation.
THE TROPICAL ADVANTAGE
People ask why recovery matters more here. Because you actually surf here, every day, in warm water that keeps your muscles loose enough to ignore the damage until it stacks up. Siargao does not give you a rest day. The protocol has to.
The Vultun Surf Recovery Stack
Surf Session
Cloud 9, Jacking Horse, or your break of choice.
Wait 30-60 Minutes
Let acute inflammation peak naturally. Rehydrate, eat, get out of the sun.
Red Light (10-15 min)
Wavelengths reach muscle and joint. Mitochondria produce more energy and repair runs faster. PHP 800, or PHP 600 added to a drip.
IV Hydration or Athletic Recovery
Replaces what a long session took out, at 100% bioavailability. From PHP 3,500. See the drip menu.
Bodywork
A therapeutic massage at Jacking Horse for the shoulders and lower back the paddle just loaded.
Breathwork (10 min)
Activates the parasympathetic nervous system. Cortisol drops. Prepares the body for deep recovery sleep.
Sleep
The one no protocol replaces. Everything above is there to make it count.
Note on sequencing: recovery works best when it follows effort rather than interrupts it. Leave a gap between a hard session and the protocol, and keep the order the same each time so you can tell what is actually working.
THE TEAM BEHIND THE PROTOCOL
Built from experience. Backed by professionals.
Every modality at Vultun is something I tested on myself first. Breathwork, cold exposure, calisthenics, meditation, fasting. These practices rebuilt my health from the ground up. But building this for other people requires more than personal experience. It requires professionals who can screen, customize, and monitor. That is why we assembled a medical team: two licensed physicians and a nursing lead who ensure that every protocol is safe, sequenced correctly, and adapted to the person in front of them.
What the Team Provides
Intake screening before your first session: cardiovascular history, medications, contraindications
Protocol customization based on your goals and health history
Physician presence during IV therapy and advanced treatments
Treatments ordered in the right sequence, not random stacking

Who Should Talk to Us Before Booking
The following conditions are reviewed by our medical team before an infusion is scheduled:
- Known or suspected cardiovascular disease or arrhythmia
- Uncontrolled hypertension
- Kidney or liver conditions
- Active acute injury or open wounds
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Regular medication, including beta blockers and diuretics
At Vultun, our intake process screens for all of these. We do not turn people away. We design the right protocol for where you are.
BREATHWORK & MENTAL CLARITY
IN DEVELOPMENT
The breath is where the physical meets the metaphysical.
After ten days of silent meditation, I learned what the breath can actually do. Not the soft breathing you do in a yoga class. The kind that rewires your nervous system in real time. Controlled breathwork activates the sympathetic nervous system on command, and a 2014 PNAS study documented the mechanism. Turn it the other way and it flips the switch: parasympathetic activation, cortisol drops, deep recovery begins. The breath is the bridge between the work and the rest.
- Guided Breathwork: Structured sessions to prepare your system before effort and settle it afterwards.
- Meditation: Breath-anchored sessions for deep parasympathetic activation.
- Mindfulness: Presence-based practices that compound the clarity the rest of the stack produces.
DOCTOR-LED PROGRAMS
NEXT DATES SOON
Some work belongs to a doctor. Consultation first, always.
Our physicians fly in from Davao for a window of days and perform the work that a nurse cannot: aesthetics, the regenerative line, and physician-supervised weight management. Every one of them starts with the same twenty minutes. The consultation is 1,000 and it is credited to whatever you book, because the doctor should be examining you before anyone quotes you a price.
The first window ran September 5 to 8. Between visits the page stays live and the list stays open.
- Aesthetics: Facial and body treatments performed by the doctor, priced in the room where the dose is decided. See the Doctor Days menu.
- SOS Slimming Program: Physician-supervised weight management with labs, weekly visits, and body-composition tracking. See the program.
- Regenerative line: Tissue repair, stem cell and exosome protocols, screening before scheduling. Doctor-performed only.
Every doctor-led treatment requires a consultation and individual assessment. Nothing on this list is available over the counter.
Personalized Supplementation
Targeted micronutrient protocols designed to complement your biohacking stack. Every protocol is tailored to the individual. No one-size supplements.

Biohacking in Siargao: everything you need to know.
What is open at the clinic?
The Wellness and Longevity Clinic at SOS Gym Malinao is open: six everyday IV drips from PHP 3,500, the NAD+ line, the NMN drip, and red light therapy. Our physicians fly in for Doctor Days windows; the next dates go to the list first. See the full menu.
How much is red light therapy in Siargao?
PHP 800 for a single session, PHP 3,500 for five, PHP 6,000 for ten. Added to any IV drip it is PHP 600. Sessions run ten to fifteen minutes under the panel at SOS Gym Malinao, and three to five times a week is the rhythm most people settle into.
What is biohacking?
The short version: using your biology on purpose. Light, breath, targeted nutrition, and what goes into your bloodstream. Not supplements from Instagram. Not a trend. The tools are old. The science is catching up. At Vultun, every protocol is something Jay tested on himself before offering it to anyone else. The seed is spiritual. The container is science.
What is red light therapy?
Standing in front of a panel of red and near-infrared light for ten to fifteen minutes. The wavelengths (660nm red, 850nm near-infrared) penetrate 5-7cm into tissue and activate your mitochondria to produce more energy. Published research links it to measurably lower muscle damage markers after exercise. Professional sports teams use the same technology between competitions.
What helps recovery after surfing?
Your shoulders, hips, and lower back just spent hours in repetitive load. Wait 30-60 minutes after the session, then red light for the joints, an IV drip to replace what you sweated out, bodywork for the paddle, and breathwork before sleep. The order matters more than any single piece of it. See the recovery stack.
Is IV therapy safe?
For healthy adults, yes, when a licensed nurse administers it under physician oversight. The risk sits with people who do not know they have a problem: undiagnosed cardiovascular conditions, kidney or liver conditions, certain medications, pregnancy. That is why we screen before your first session. Not to gatekeep. To design the right protocol for where you are.
What does Vultun offer right now?
Live now: therapeutic massage and energetic healing at Jacking Horse Beach, Reformer Pilates at Feral, yoga, barre, mat pilates, and dance at Holding Space, sound healing and meditation at Holding Space, and guided surf at Jacking Horse. IV therapy and red light are open. The rest of the stack is in development.
What is IV therapy?
IV therapy delivers vitamins and nutrients directly into your bloodstream. 100% bioavailability versus 30-80% for oral supplements. Our clinic at SOS Gym Malinao runs six everyday drips: hydration, travel and hangover recovery, immunity, athletic recovery, glutathione glow, and the NAD+ Longevity IV, plus the NAD+ Boost Shot and the NMN Vitality Drip. See the full IV therapy menu.
What do the visiting doctors perform?
Facial and body aesthetics, the regenerative line, and the SOS Slimming Program, all doctor-performed during a Doctor Days window. Everything starts with a PHP 1,000 consultation that is credited to any treatment you book, and the doctor quotes your exact price in the room rather than off a list.
Who is on the medical team?
Dr. Luisa De Borja (Medical Director, MD/DPBO/RN, 20+ years clinical), Dr. Pangga Somera Avenido (Founding Medical Consultant, PAAMI/AMI Fellow in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine), and Elvira Mercado RN (Nursing Lead, IV administration specialist). The same team runs our IV therapy clinic.
What makes Vultun different from other biohacking options in Siargao?
Most places offer one modality. We’re building an integrated system: red light, IV therapy, the NAD+ line, breathwork, and visiting physicians for the doctor-led work. All designed to work together, all with intake screening and medical oversight. Pair that with surf, pilates, massage, sound healing, and yoga already running across two locations. The recovery is as intentional as the effort.
Can I combine biohacking with surfing?
That’s the whole idea. Surf Cloud 9 or Jacking Horse in the morning. Come to Malinao for recovery in the afternoon: red light, an IV drip, pilates, yoga, massage, or sound healing. The Siargao lifestyle is the training. The biohacking is the recovery.
Where is the biohacking space located?
SOS Gym, Ground Floor, Malinao, General Luna, Surigao del Norte. Same building as Feral Pilates and Feral Movement. Our beachfront spa and surf are at Jacking Horse Beach, Catangnan. View on Google Maps.
How do I book?
Message us on WhatsApp. We respond within 30 minutes during business hours. For Reformer Pilates and movement classes, you can also book directly through the scheduling system on each service page. Walk-ins welcome for massage at Jacking Horse.
