PHA, PHRS lead month-long campaign to raise awareness on cardiac arrhythmias

Make pulse checking a practical way to detect heart beat irregularities early: locate the radial pulse at the wrist, just below the base of the thumb, using the index and middle fingers. Count the beats for one full minute to determine both rate and rhythm. A normal resting pulse typically ranges from 60 to less than 100 beats per minute.  In celebration of Global Pulse Day every March 1, the Philippine Heart Association (PHA) and the Philippine Heart Rhythm Society (PHRS) joined the international campaign to raise awareness on cardiac arrhythmias.

  The beautiful reception area of the resort Green Nature Resort and Leisure Park recently hosted Manila media across all media platforms for an exclusive Familiarization Tour to introduce GNRLP as one of Laguna's emerging destinations offering as privileged to be part of the group which had the opportunity to experience both the resort and the surrounding destinations and witnessed the beauty and tourism potential of Nagcarlan as a unique destination in Southern Luzon showcasing some of the town's notable tourist stops and natural attractions.

With the help of the locals and their genuine hospitality, I successfully made i...
