Check your health Do you find yourself falling sick often? Or that you’re generally not in the best state of health? You might be experiencing what is known as sub-health issues – conditions that have not developed into diseases yet. These issues can manifest as a nagging pain at the neck, shoulder or back area due to prolonged hours in front of the computer, or stressrelated ailments. Sub-health issues can occur when your body is out of balance. From the TCM perspective, the body constitution can be broadly categorised into 10 types. Get to know your body better with the Eu Yan Sang Health Report. The service consists of a personal consultation with a physician who will determine your dominant body constitution and give advice on preventive health treatments to manage sub-health conditions as well as lifestyle tips and simple recipes that can benefit your body constitution.
