ABOUT
A Health Expo is a positive way to respond to human suffering in this age of increased knowledge and technology. Every day we are witnesses to an increase in the number of deaths directly related to unhealthy lifestyles. Most of these premature deaths could have been prevented and quality of life increased if simple lifestyle changes had been implemented.
There are eight main factors related to disease prevention and physical, emotional and spiritual health. These are: nutrition, exercise, water, sun, temperance, air, rest and trust in divine power. All the services provided at the health expo will address all of these factors. The services provided include:
• Chair Massage • Doctor's Consultation • Diabetes Screening • Blood Pressure Screening • Body Fat Analysis • Harvard Exercise Step Test • Peak Flow Breathing Test • Calculated Health Age |
We will offer both an in-person health expo and a virtual option. The Virtual Expo will be a questionnaire to complete and then a follow up doctor's consultation after analysis of the questionnaire. The In-Person Expo will have a station for each of the eight health factors:

STATION 01: NUTRITION
Proper nutrition is the foundation of good health and recovery. The foods we eat have a tremendous impact on our health. At this station, we will provide diabetes and cholesterol screening.

STATION 02: WATER
Because the body is 70% water, keeping well hydrated and knowing what and when to drink are essential to health. At this station we will provide everyone with water and education on hydrotherapy.

STATION 03: EXCERCISE
Action is a law of life. Muscle tone and strength are lost without exertion, but exercise improves the health of body, mind, and spirit multiplying vitality and health. At this station we will provide the Harvard Step Test which helps to analyze your cardiovascular system.

STATION 04: SUNLIGHT
The sun is the established energy source ordained by God to sustain the cycle of life for plants and animals. At this station, we will check your blood pressure.

STATION 05: AIR
The body’s most essential resource is air. More important than food or water, proper breathing and pure air are fundamental to good health. At this station, we will provide the Peak Flow Meter which measures the flow of air coming out of your lungs.

STATION 06: REST
Restoration requires rest because sleep allows the body to renew itself. Many types of rest are important for health, but the sweetest rest follows labor. At this station, we will provide a massage by a licensed massage therapist.

STATION 07: TEMPERANCE
Using good things moderately and avoiding the bad is obviously wise, yet often hard to practice. At this station, we will input the information received through the previous stations and a questionnaire to the HER program and determine a "Health Age".
