Lee Health will hold complimentary body composition screenings on Feb. 22 from 9 a.m. to noon. Body composition testing is a method of describing what the body is made of, including fat, protein, minerals and body water. It also describes weight more accurately for an individual than BMI. Body composition analysis can show changes in fat mass, muscle mass, and body fat percentage over time and can provide a benchmark for improving health.
The Sanibel Fire and Rescue District will offer complimentary blood pressure screenings on Feb. 26 from 9 and 11 a.m. in the lobby. High blood pressure increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease and even blindness in some cases. The screenings are offered as a first step in determining if further examination by a health care professional is necessary.
OnSpot Dermatology will offer complimentary screenings on Feb. 28 from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Appointments are recommended but not required. To make an appointment, visit https://onspotdermatology.com/cityofsanibel or call 941-444-0011.
