The HeartAware™ Online Evaluation

Thanks to Nikole, a Clinical Education Specialist at Mercy & Chandler Hospital and 100 Club Client, for telling us about this online evaluation for a "heart evaluation". from Chandler Reg. Hospital. Please read below to learn more, and click on the link to take the online evaluation! Pass this on to those you love!

PS: The first question asks you who you work for and gives you a drop down menu. I just selected one, and it worked fine.

Knowing your risk profile will enable you to take control of your health and provide you with the best defense against cardiovascular disease. At the end of the online evaluation, you will receive a personalized report and strictly confidential information that will help you:

Assess your cardiovascular health status;
Identify medical or lifestyle conditions that may lead to development of disease;
Take action to reduce your level of risk; and
Receive, at your option, free continuing education via e-mail about your specific cardiovascular health and risk factors.

Click here to access the HeartAware™ risk assessment, or call 480.728.3639 to schedule a free, in-person consultation with the program’s cardiac clinician.

We are also conducting a research study that will continue to investigate the relationship between the traditional risk factors for developing cardiovascular disease and newly defined genetic markers of disease. To learn more about the research study or to find out if you are eligible to enroll, please click here or call 480.728.7086.

GOOD LUCK!!

What is Pilates?

Pilates is a method of exercise and physical movement designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. With systematic practice of specific exercises coupled with focused breathing patterns, Pilates has proven itself invaluable not only as a fitness endeavor itself, but also as an important adjunct to professional sports training and physical rehabilitation of all kinds. Widely embraced among dancers for years, the exercises--"elephant," "swan", the language--"pull navel to spine, and breeaaaathe," and the look--bright-eyed, refreshed, buoyant-without-necessarily-sweating, is popping up in fitness classes, physical therapy offices, corporate retreats, luxury spas and wellness centers across the country. Another fad? A cult for the over-privileged? Think again. With the aging of our population and the increasing trend toward mindful, moderate health practices, Pilates is more likely to find itself with a wait list at the YMCA, and in your local public schools--shaping the fitness ideals of our next generation. Benefits of Pilates:-Increased lung capacity and circulation through deep, healthy breathing -Increased strength and flexibility, particularly of the abdomen and back muscles-Increased posture, balance, and core strength -Bone density and joint health improve -Positive body awareness for the first time. -Balance and control of the body improve -Safe exercise for pre-natal and post-natal women"I must be right. Never an aspirin. Never injured a day in my life. The whole country, the whole world, should be doing my exercises. They'd be happier."- Joseph Hubertus Pilates, in 1965, age 86
