| Healthaware Ltd was formed in 2004 with the aim
of promoting the prevention of chronic diseases such as diabetes and
heart disease. We believe that enabling individuals to take more
responsibility for their own health is key to disease prevention.
It is estimated that about 1 in 5 of us already
have early signs of the chronic diseases diabetes and heart disease.
Healthaware provides a health screen service which tests for key health
factors including HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, blood
pressure and waist circumference. When the results for these tests are
combined we can give an indication of whether or not your body is
showing early signs of these chronic diseases (a condition know as
metabolic syndrome). These diseases are both progressive in nature, but
if the early signs are detected soon enough, lifestyle changes have
been demonstrated to slow down, prevent or even reverse progression
towards the full disease state.
We combine our health screen with a behaviour
change program for those who would like help in changing to a healthier
lifestyle.

Healthaware provides an extremely convenient means
of determining these key health parameters and offers help in lifestyle
changes for those who wish to try to reduce their individual risk. We
currently offer services in the Inverness and surrounding area.
