Healthcare Shouldn't Only Begin When Something Feels Wrong
Just like a car benefits from a regular MOT, your health benefits from small checks and preventative care that can help identify issues early, improve your wellbeing, and give you peace of mind.
At DMB Chemist & Tower Pharmacy, we believe healthcare shouldn't only begin when something feels wrong. Our approach is built around prevention, education, and helping you stay well for longer.

Check Your Blood Pressure
High blood pressure often has no obvious symptoms, which is why it's sometimes called the "silent killer". A quick (and free) blood pressure check can help identify potential concerns early.
-

Survive the Summer Heat
Hot weather can place extra strain on the body, particularly for older adults, young children, and people living with existing health conditions. Staying hydrated, monitoring medications, and recognising the signs of heat exhaustion can make a big difference during warmer months.
-

Travel Heath Checks
Whether you're heading abroad for a family holiday or travelling further afield, preparing your health is just as important as packing your suitcase. Travel vaccinations, malaria prevention, and destination-specific advice can help keep you protected throughout your trip.
-

Protection From UV
Long summer days often mean increased sun exposure. Choosing the right sunscreen and using it correctly can help protect against sunburn, premature ageing, and long-term skin damage.
-

Healthy Lifestyle Advice
Many health conditions develop gradually and without obvious symptoms. Regular exercise, good sleep, hydration, healthy eating, and routine health checks all contribute to long-term wellbeing.
-

Blood Testing
Blood testing can provide valuable insights into your health, helping identify potential issues before they become bigger problems. Whether you're experiencing symptoms, monitoring a condition, or simply seeking reassurance, testing can be an important part of preventative healthcare.
-

Update Your Vaccinations
Vaccinations remain one of the most effective ways to protect yourself and those around you. Whether you're preparing for travel or checking your eligibility for seasonal vaccines, staying protected starts with staying informed.

Hay Fever Relief
Sneezing, itchy eyes, insect bites, heat rash, and minor summer illnesses can quickly take the fun out of summer. Our pharmacy team can recommend effective treatments and advice to help you stay comfortable all season long.
