Welcome to the Harley Street Clinic.

Private Healthcare Solutions in the UK

Some national issues are so sensitive that it is almost impossible to discuss them without people taking strong stances and separating into partisan groups. The issue that we will discuss in this brief article is just such an issue. Therefore, we will do our best to simply state the facts and avoid tendentious opinions.

While the Nation Health Service (NHS) does cover more than ninety per cent of UK residents, in recent years more and more people are opting for private healthcare. Why are they doing this? Honestly, who would pay for something that they can get for free? Well, according to a recent report, many citizens are concerned about falling staff levels at hospitals all over the UK. For obvious reasons, they believe that this might negatively impact the level of care.

For years, private cliniques vendant des comprimés amincissants en ligne pour perdre du poids were dismissed and the small industry was frequently said to be in decline. However, recent numbers tell us that that trend has done a sudden and unexpected about-face. Does this mean that the National Health Service is in a state of decline? Of course not! But it does mean that there are a growing number of residents who feel dissatisfied with the system. (more...)

Cosmetic Treatments are Becoming More Affordable

Our world demands perfection. When we see people on television and newspapers they become our idols, and we will do anything to emulate them. Women in particular are always unhappy with a certain part of their body which is why cosmetic surgery is so popular for them.

Cosmetic treatment comes in many different forms such as eye lifts, liposuction and lip injections. For men, rezeptpflichtige Arzneimittel gegen Haarausfall are recommended to prevent hair loss and is far less invasive than a hair transplant. Those all pale in comparison to the most popular form of cosmetic treatment which is breast augmentation.

The female breasts are by far the most objectified part of the female body, therefore it is always criticised and analysed. Thankfully, we have procedures that can help remove the stress that any women may feel in regards to their breast size or shape. (more...)

Dangers in buying prescription treatments online

Current UK NHS guidelines on prescribing Viagra, Cialis and Levitra the three main oral impotence treatments mean that men in need of these treatments are never able to obtain them.

Exercise for weight loss

Reducing your body fat can be done through diet, exercise or by taking slimming pills. Often the easiest choice for many people is using Alli or Xenical Orlistat UK commercially approved diet pills , and whilst these medications can be used safely to lose weight and encourage the user to adopt a low fat diet, this kind of regime is not intended for use in the long term.

Slimmers who find it difficult initially to lose weight can try slimming pills to kick-start their weightloss programme, and should gradually introduce other means for losing weight such as exercise.

Exercising for weight loss is one of the most effective ways of losing extra pounds and improving overall health, and in the long run is far more sustainable and enjoyable than reducing your food intake or calorie counting. Modern society’s obesity problem is more often than not attributable to a lack of daily physical activity caused by changes in the types of roles men and women have in the workplace and at home. Jobs are far more sedentary these days and the internet means we do not need to leave the house to do physical tasks like food and clothes shopping. Not surprisingly sedentary men and women are more prone to weight gain and increased body fat percentage compared to those with more active jobs. (more...)

The desk-bike to counter sedentarism

Portable, cheap and effective: those who have tried it are satisfied and have burnt up to 500 calories a day. It is a serious problem: the vast majority of people spend all day sitting still at their desks and no time at all doing any exercise. But what would happen if there were a mini-bicycle under each desk allowing us to pedal away whilst reading our emails, working on excel or having a tea break? Lucas Carr, a researcher from the Department of Exercise and Sport Science at the University of East Carolina, tested the theory on volunteer overweight patients undergoing weight loss treatment .

The results, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine seem to be very positive. The bike is easy to use: it consists of a set of near-silent pedals placed underneath a desk, these can be comfortably used whilst seated and are suitable for any office desk. Carr’s study involved 18 office workers who had previously tried other means of weight loss, their mean age was 40, and most of them where overweight and female; nearly all of those involved spent 75% of their day in front of a computer, tied to their desk. Each volunteer was able to monitor the distance covered by bike, the time spent pedalling, and the number of calories burnt. Volunteers were at liberty to choose how much time to dedicate to cycling per day, and the study lasted a total of 4 weeks.

Participants used the bikes for an average of 12 out a maximum 20 working days; the average time spent pedalling per day was 23 minutes. Some participants did take full advantage of their new cycling machine clocking up several miles every day, some cycled for up to 73 minutes a day. The range of distances covered was from 500 meters a day to over 20km for the real enthusiasts. A lot of calories were burnt on average by the volunteers as well, the downright lazy only burnt 9 calories on average a day, but some people managed to consistently burn 500 calories every single day thanks to the mini-desk-bike. Burning 500 extra calories a day is equivalent to losing a pound a week, all without even having to grace a gym class. Participants were asked to fill out a detailed questionnaire to find out what they thought about the introduction of exercise equipment in the office, and most agreed the new accessory was beneficial for their health. The workers also confirmed that having the exercise bikes di not hamper the quality of their work or their productivity. (more...)

Don’t leave home without Malarone

Booking a holiday to an exotic location is always exciting, but travelling to far away destinations generally requires a little more planning than your average staycation or holiday to mainland Europe, and this is particularly true for health care. Travel to non-EU destinations, in particular areas of Asia, Africa and Central and Latin America, brings added risks to health, which are compounded by limited access to safe and reliable health care services. On this basis it is extremely important travellers are well prepared and well informed on potential travel related health issues, in particular the risk of malaria and need for Malarone or similar treatments.

Common health care problems encountered abroad, such as those associated with traveller’s diarrhoea and jet lag, are rarely, if at all fatal. In fact the single most dangerous health risk for travellers to countries outside Europe is Malaria. Malaria, is a highly infectious an often fatal disease, which is transmitted from person to person through the bite of a female Anopheles mosquito. There is currently no effective vaccination against the disease, and the only way to protect yourself from infection is by using a suitable malaria chemoprophylaxis tailored to your journey.

Malarone is an antimalarial medication which contains two active ingredients, atovaquone and proguanil hydrochloride. This medicine can be used both in preventing infection from malaria and treating a traveller who has been exposed and infected by the disease. Malarone works by killing the malaria parasite and is proven to be a highly effective treatment option even against the most dangerous and fatal strain, the Plasmodium falciparum parasite. (more...)
