This 20 minute appointment could save your life
Cardiovascular disease and stroke is the number 1 cause of death in NZ with 1 in 20 adults diagnosed. However, cardiovascular disease is predominantly a ‘lifestyle disease’. Recent data from the World Health Organisation has shown that approximately 75% of premature cardiovascular disease is preventable and that is why Health Screening NZ wants to help YOU.
After your Pulse Wave Analysis test, our friendly screener will explain your results and assess your potential risk of cardiovascular disease as well as showing you how to use Cardiaction to improve your heart and artery health—all with personalised recommendations. If your results are serious Health Screening NZ will refer you to your GP or a cardiologist and you will be able to share your PWA results with them.
The entire appointment runs for 30 minutes and costs $59.
Clinics are running next week;
Tuesday at Unichem Brighton Village Pharmacy
Wednesday at Healthworks Pharmacy Ilam
Thursday at Unichem Rolleston Central Pharmacy
