Blood Pressure Screening

Your heart health matters—and at Teddington Pharmacy, we’re here to help you take control of it. Our blood pressure screening service is available for all adults who want to monitor and manage their blood pressure effectively.  
 
Whether you have a history of high blood pressure or simply want peace of mind, our friendly, experienced team is here to support you with fast, accurate testing using the latest blood pressure monitor screen technology.

High blood pressure (also known as hypertension) is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and other serious health conditions. Often called the “silent killer,” it typically has no symptoms until significant damage has been done.  

The only way to know if your blood pressure is in a healthy range is through regular blood pressure screening. By identifying issues early, you can make lifestyle changes or begin treatment to protect your heart health before complications arise. 

Anyone over the age of 40 is recommended to have regular high blood pressure screening, but even younger adults with risk factors should get checked. You may be at higher risk if you:

• Are overweight or obese.
• Smoke or drink alcohol frequently.
• Have a family history of heart disease.
• Lead a sedentary lifestyle.
• Eat a diet high in sodium and low in nutrients.
• Experience frequent stress or anxiety.

At Teddington Pharmacy, we believe prevention is better than cure. Alongside blood pressure monitoring, we can help you make meaningful changes to reduce your cardiovascular risk. Simple steps such as:

• Eating a balanced, heart-healthy diet
• Exercising regularly
• Reducing stress levels
• Cutting down on salt and processed foods
• Stopping smoking and moderating alcohol consumption

These changes along with regular blood pressure screening can make a significant difference to your overall health.
