Heart Health: The Importance of Knowing Your Numbers with Laura Fishlock Osteopathy

Maintaining heart health is crucial for overall wellbeing, and understanding key health indicators—often referred to as "knowing your numbers"—is an essential part of this process. These numbers typically include blood pressure, cholesterol levels, blood sugar, and body mass index (BMI). The osteopathic team at Laura Fishlock Osteopathy is trained to assess blood pressure and provide guidance on when to seek further medical support, making them a valuable resource in managing your heart health.

Blood pressure is a critical measure of heart health. High blood pressure, or hypertension, can lead to serious conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems. Regular monitoring of blood pressure helps identify potential issues early, allowing for timely intervention. The osteopathic team at Laura Fishlock Osteopathy is equipped to measure your blood pressure accurately and assess your cardiovascular health. This proactive approach can help you understand your risk factors and take necessary steps to manage them.

In addition to blood pressure assessment, osteopaths provide holistic care that supports overall cardiovascular health. This includes advising on lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and stress management, all of which play a vital role in maintaining a healthy heart. Exercise, in particular, is emphasised, as regular physical activity strengthens the heart, improves circulation, and helps maintain a healthy weight.

Knowing your numbers empowers you to take control of your heart health. If the osteopathic team detects any abnormalities, they will advise you to seek further medical support. Early detection and management of heart related issues can prevent complications and improve long-term outcomes.

At Laura Fishlock Osteopathy, the focus is on comprehensive care. By integrating osteopathic principles with regular health assessments, the team ensures that patients receive well rounded support. This approach not only addresses immediate concerns but also promotes long term heart health, helping you lead a healthier, more active life. By knowing your numbers and working with the osteopathic team, you can take significant steps toward safeguarding your heart health and overall well-being.
