Affinity's ‘20/20’ Health Consults for Women
They say hindsight is ‘20/20’.
And that no one can predict the future.
But increasingly today, medical evidence points to prevention as the first step to good health.
That’s why at Affinity, we have introduced ‘20/20’ Health Consults for women.
So that together, we can begin the process of developing your own personal health goals, focusing on preventative and lifestyle strategies.
For $20, you can now book a 20-minute consult with Carole Beveridge, Pharmacist, Nutritional Consultant & Menopause Practitioner. First time appointments can be booked up to a maximum of 1.5 hours session.
For more information or to book, email cbeveridge@affinityforhealth.ca

Below is a recent testimonal from a very! satisfied Wellness Belt customer..
Hi, my name is Colleen. I purchased my belt on the May 24th weekend and have been a believer since. As a bedside health care provider, I have suffered from low back pain, bad knees and poor posture. I would find myself using plenty of tylenol or ibuprofen to keep my back pain under control, especially when getting patients bathed, dressed and up in the morning. I would walk like a duck with my buttocks stuck out as I tried to compensate for the pain. Did I mention that I am overweight? Once I got my belt I was able to start wearing it right away and was able to build up to wearing it throughout an eight hour shift within a week it was so comfortable. Now two months later, I am using less anlagesics, my lower back pain is almost completely gone, my knees feel better and with better meal planning I have lost 20 lbs. The belt is the easiest piece of exercise/ physio equipment I have ever used. I miss it, since I had to send it back to be resized, FOUR inches smaller. I look foreward to continuing good posture, being pain free and losing weight thanks to my very comfortable wellness belt. Thanks Colleen
