6 million people in the UK are not aware they have high blood pressure. 350 people everyday in the UK have a stroke or heart attack that could have been prevented. However, when you Know Your Numbers you can take the necessary steps to look after your blood pressure and lead a long and healthy life.
National Know Your Numbers Week (7th – 12th September 2021) is an opportunity for employers to provide staff with a variety of short health checks, that can be carried out in their place of work and can identify early signs of any possible Health issues.
Many people will often only visit their GP when something is wrong and not for any general check ups. However, Relaxa UK Ltd can help companies and organizations to encourage staff to check their general health and know their numbers with a variety of different levels of Health screenings in the workplace. Relaxa can arrange online appointment scheduling and a report of the Health screening data giving companies a better idea of what wellbeing issues need to be addressed possibly as part of a wider wellbeing program. Although we know looking after your health is important, many don’t schedule time for this and even though we would like full day health checks, in reality that is not practical for most businesses. Therefore, Relaxa’s Health checks are designed to fit into the working day and designed to be cost effective so that all staff in a company or organization can benefit from this essential and potentially life saving service.
