The numbers that really make a difference to life. But why are they so crucial and what's the best way to monitor and manage them?
Taking vital measurements such as blood pressure can be the difference between spotting a health problem early on and fixing it easily, or someone facing a major health crisis somewhere down the line. Stress in offices can be a major contributor to high numbers that need addressing but if a man doesn't visit his GP or work doesn't offer a screening programme, chances are that this will go unchecked until it's too late. We've screened clients who haven't had their numbers checked in 20 years!
3 reasons to get your numbers checked sooner rather than later:
1. You can't tell from the outside what the state of your health is
2. Any problems that are spotted can be addressed quickly and changes can be made to your lifestyle to remedy them
3. Age doesn't count when it comes to this aspect of your life. A 21 year old could have seriously high blood pressure - not just a 50 year old
We'd advise getting checks done every 6 months and if needed, you'll be asked to come back in between.
