Checks and measurements

We offer a range of services related to your health. We can help you by regularly checking your health indicators. The earlier a disease is detected, the better it can be treated.

We carry out the checks and measurements discreetly in our separate treatment rooms.

AllergyCheck®

 

Do you suffer from allergy symptoms or intolerances?

One in four Swiss people suffer from allergic symptoms such as frequent sneezing, itching, a blocked or runny nose, burning eyes, breathing difficulties, or skin rashes. The AllergyCheck takes between 20 and 30 minutes. A small amount of blood from your finger is used to test for ten common inhalant allergens. The blood test looks for antibodies against possible allergy triggers in the blood.

Please register in advance so that we can prepare the test.

AllergyCheck incl. consultation: $69

Measure blood sugar

 

Do you know your blood sugar level?

Measuring your blood sugar is easy and only takes a few minutes. All we need for the test is a small drop of blood from your fingertip. To ensure that the result is accurate, we recommend that you take the test in the morning on an empty stomach or at least 2 hours after a meal.

No appointment is necessary.

Blood sugar measurement: $7.50

Measure blood pressure

 

Do you know your blood pressure?

High blood pressure is widespread in today's society. Stress, unhealthy eating habits, and smoking are among the risk factors. Initial symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and malaise are often not taken seriously and associated with high blood pressure.

Ideally, you should not smoke, eat, or drink coffee 30 minutes before the measurement. In addition, prior physical activity leads to a natural increase in blood pressure, so we ask you to wait in our separate treatment room for 5 minutes before the measurement.

No advance registration is necessary.

Blood pressure measurement: CHF 5
 

 

 

Early detection of colon cancer

 

Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer in Valais and Switzerland. Every year, it affects more than 150 Valais residents and causes around
70 deaths. The aim of early detection is to diagnose the cancer at an early stage, before symptoms appear. At this stage, colorectal cancer requires less intensive and stressful treatment and has good prospects of recovery.

The cantonal colorectal cancer screening program is aimed at women and men aged 50 to 69 who live in the canton of Valais and have no history of colon or rectal cancer. You will receive an invitation if you are in this population group.
After receiving the invitation, you can obtain a colorectal cancer screening test from us.
