Midjourney launches Midjourney Medical, a planned wellness center in San Francisco’s Union Square that combines spa amenities with full-body ultrasound scans. The company has leased 23,000 square feet at 300 Grant Avenue for a facility with about ten scanners, saunas, hot tubs, and cold plunges; it plans to open in late 2027 and operate around the clock. The scans are not FDA-approved, and pricing is undisclosed. Midjourney’s expansion target is 5,000 locations, 50,000 machines, and one billion scans per year.
