The founder · Sun Valley
Her practice begins where “your labs are normal” stops.
Christine Hansen, MSN, FNP-BC leads BioPeak, a functional medicine and longevity practice in Sun Valley, Idaho.
Why Christine built BioPeak
I was born and raised in the Wood River Valley, where I learned to ski at Rotarun and developed a deep appreciation for the lifestyle that makes this place special. Around here, life is measured in ski days, mountain bike rides, backcountry adventures, hikes, and summers at Redfish Lake. We don’t just want to live longer. We want to keep doing what we love for decades to come.
My philosophy on health began with my mom. She believed in caring for our bodies long before it became a trend. From naturopathic visits to daily bike rides, walks, and homemade split pea soup, she taught me that health is something we actively invest in.
After nursing school, I worked in hospital medicine, where I witnessed the consequences of waiting until health deteriorates. I knew I wanted to practice differently. I wanted to help people take ownership of their health before illness defined their lives.
That vision became BioPeak Human Optimization.
Today, I practice personalized, proactive medicine that looks beyond conventional lab ranges and challenges the idea that feeling poorly is simply part of aging. Through comprehensive diagnostics, hormone optimization, metabolic health, longevity medicine, and advanced aesthetics, I help patients better understand their bodies and create meaningful, sustainable change.
My approach is collaborative. I bring the clinical expertise, but lasting results require commitment from both of us.
For me, BioPeak is more than a business. It’s an opportunity to help the community that raised me stay healthy, strong, and capable of living the life they love.
“When someone says that something has changed in their body, my job is to find out what.”
How Christine reads your body
She starts with your whole history.
The first appointment is an extensive interview of your health across your whole life: how you were as a child, what you have been exposed to, what the health of your parents and grandparents looks like. The cause of a present symptom often sits years upstream — an old exposure, an injury, or a habit that has been running for decades.
She does not treat without data.
Alongside the interview, she takes a complete baseline: fasting lab work across more than forty markers, an InBody body composition scan, and a PNOĒ breath analysis that reads how efficiently your body turns oxygen into energy.
She reads your labs for function.
A normal lab is the floor for disease. It says little about your body at its best. Christine reads each value against the level where you function well, which is why she treats patients whose labs come back in range.
She stays.
Labs are rechecked every three to four months, and your plan adjusts as your body responds. Protecting healthspan is work that plays out over years, and she is the practitioner you call when anything changes.
What Christine asks of her patients
- The first appointment takes time. It goes deeper than most medical visits you have had, and the depth is the point: The plan is only as good as the picture it is built on.
- The treatment is half of the result. In her words: “Hormone therapy can often get you 50% to your goal, and you come the other 50%.” Your sleep, your training, your nutrition, and your consistency carry the rest.
- Give a protocol a full twelve weeks before you judge it. Some patients feel a change in the first week. Your body still needs the full twelve to show what a protocol is doing.
- She will tell you the truth, including when a service is not worth your money. Every recommendation follows your interest.
