When did you last have your blood pressure checked?

Most of us don't know our numbers, and that's a problem, because high blood pressure has no symptoms. You can feel completely fine and still be at risk.

This September, GPS Healthcare is offering free blood pressure checks at Tanworth Lane Surgery. Just drop in on Wednesday 9 September between 10:00am–12:30pm or 2:00pm–4:00pm. No appointment, no waiting, no cost.

A quick check could flag something important early, and early is always better.

Not yet registered with a GP? Come along and do both on the day. Go to www.gpshealthcare.co.uk

Do you know your blood pressure numbers? ❤️

For Know Your Numbers Week, we’re encouraging everyone to understand the importance of knowing their blood pressure.

High blood pressure often doesn’t cause noticeable symptoms, so having it checked is one of the best ways to know where you stand.

If you’ve been asked by your GP practice to provide a blood pressure reading, please don’t put it off. Blood pressure checks may also be available through your local community pharmacy.

High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can increase your risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease and other serious health conditions. The good news is that it's easy to check and, if needed, it can often be managed with lifestyle changes or treatment.

During Know Your Numbers! Week, everyone is encouraged to find out their blood pressure reading. Whether you're 20 or 80, knowing your numbers is one of the best ways to take control of your health. This year's theme is "You know your age, do you know your numbers?"

You can have your blood pressure checked:
💙 At your GP practice
💙 At many local pharmacies
💙 At home using a validated blood pressure monitor

If your blood pressure is high, don't panic. Your healthcare team can support you with advice, lifestyle changes and treatment if needed. Small changes, such as eating less salt, being more active and maintaining a healthy weight, can make a big difference. 🌿🚶

Don't wait for symptoms – because there often aren't any. Know your numbers and take control of your heart health today. ❤️

Regular physical activity can help you adapt to the changes happening to your body, support your overall wellbeing and prepare your body for labour. 🏃‍♀️

If your pregnancy is uncomplicated, you can usually continue with your normal daily physical activity or exercise for as long as you feel comfortable. Activities such as walking, swimming and pregnancy-friendly exercise can all be great ways to keep moving. 🚶‍♀️🏊‍♀️

𝗔 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿:
• Always warm up before exercising and cool down afterwards.
• Keep well hydrated, particularly during warmer weather. 💧
• Avoid exercising in very hot conditions.
• Don't exhaust yourself – you should still be able to hold a conversation while exercising.
• Avoid activities where there's a risk of falling or being hit.
• After 16 weeks, avoid exercising while lying flat on your back for long periods.

If you weren't active before pregnancy, don't suddenly begin strenuous exercise. Start gently and build up gradually. 👍

Every pregnancy is different, so speak to your midwife or healthcare professional if you're unsure which activities are suitable for you. 💙
