MEN’S HEALTH CHECK

The ABC’s of a men’s health check:

A = Anthropometrics

We will take some anthropometrical measurements such as height and weight from which to work out BMI. We will also measure body fat levels and measure waist circumference and waist to hip ratio if clinically indicated. We will also measure resting pulse and blood pressure.

B = Biomarkers

This involves a blood test which we will take and send off to a lab for analysis. This is the test we recommend you purchase prior to the appointment and bring it with you so we can take the blood for you. https://www.youth-revisited.co.uk/product/competitive-athlete/ This test establishes many things including a full blood count, lipid profile, inflammatory markers, thyroid, liver and kidney function, diabetes markers and hormones and nutritional markers.

C = Clinical indicators

This is a quick screen of things such as the hair, eyes, mouth, nails and skin – your body provides clues as to your health:

CONJUNCTIVAL PALLOR – PALE CONJUNCTIVA IN THE EYES IS A SIGN OF ANAEMIA
ACANTHOSIS NIGRICANS – DARKENED SKIN SOMETIMES WITH SKIN TAGS ON THE NECK OR ARMPITS MAY POINT TOWARDS TYPE 2 DIABETES
ANGULAR CHEILITIS – CRACKS AND SORES IN THE COMERS OF THE MOUTH SUGGEST B VITAMIN DEFICIENCY
FOLLICULAR KERATOSIS – RED PIMPLES ON THE BACKS OF THE ARMS MIGHT SUGGEST NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY
LEUKONYCHIA – WHITE SPOTS IN THE NAILS SUGGESTS ZINC, IRON OR SELENIUM DEFICIENCY

Although this is not a dermatology appointment we can also pick up and moles and other skin signs or things that we think you need to see your GP about.

Brilliant all round experience. After sustaining a marathon injury during training Wandsworth Physiotherapy managed to fit me in the next day and was back up and running within 2 weeks after three 30 minute sessions. Gave me exercises to go away and do in my own time too so felt like I was making the most of their and my time too.

These guys are fantastic! Really quick to reply and they found me an appointment on the same day. I've since had regular treatments with Alessio who is excellent, and my torn IT band, shoulder and other ailments are much improved. Brilliant for both sports injuries and wellness.

Gerry Sweetland

Booked an appointment for the same day on a Saturday. Adele has been very welcoming and helpful, providing useful advice as well as efficient treatment. Great local clinic, will definitely come back and recommend.

Jean Reverdy

Steve was excellent. Long term/complex shoulder injury treated over a number of sessions - patient, curious and methodical. Great treatments and programme of exercises and I'm back to pain free swimming.

~ Nick Outlaw

I've been several times for several different problems and Steve has always been excellent. He listens really carefully and asks good questions to find out exactly what's wrong, and is very clear with follow-up exercises to continue the therapy at home. Highly recommend him!

 Khushboo gave excellent treatment for my IT band issue as well as neck pain due to posture long hours on a computer. She also gave very helpful advice on stretches and exercises. I would use again.

 Shreya worked magic on my hip and gave me clear guidance on how to strengthen what needed to be strengthened. She also followed up to check how I was doing. I have already recommended her to several other yoga teachers.

 After many years of suffering from a persistent shoulder injury and spending a considerable amount on physiotherapy, I finally found relief in one appointment with Steve Hines. He quickly identified the source of my pain and provided effective exercises to strengthen the area. Shreeya Gupta also helped with very good sports injuries. Definitely recommend

 I had one appointment with Andreas to deal with my lower back issue that surfaced after an uncomfortable 12 hour flight, a couple of weeks ago. It’s my first time in London, and I was doing lots of sightseeing, but I couldn’t walk longer than 10 minutes without my back hurting. I had to sit down and stretch my back or squat in the middle of the street 😅

The treatment itself was quite quick - only 20 min. But it really helped! Andreas also sent me an exercise program which I only did once the following morning, but ever since then I no longer have had issues walking for long periods of time. It’s a miracle!

Thank you, Andreas!
