🎯HPV (Human Papillomavirus) is extremely common, affecting 4 in 5 people at some point. It spreads easily through close contact, so many individuals encounter it without being vaccinated.

💙With HPV Awareness Day upon us, it’s a timely moment to check in on your health and the steps you can take to protect it. The HPV vaccine protects against strains linked to several cancers, and in New Zealand, it’s fully funded for ages 9–27. People with a cervix should also keep up with regular cervical screening.

📋You can schedule your cervical screening or HPV vaccination with us at any time. Find out more about HPV at https://www.hpv.org.nz/about-hpv/about-hpv

✅February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, a reminder to stay informed, learn the signs and look after ourselves.

🎯Around 16 in every 1,000 women will develop ovarian cancer in their lifetime, and while factors like genetics, BRCA mutations, or age can play a part, many people are diagnosed without a clear cause.
This is why symptom awareness is so important. If something feels out of the ordinary, checking in with your healthcare provider is a good place to start.

🚰We usually turn on the tap for a glass of water without thinking twice. But, occasionally, bacteria like E. coli or coliforms can show up in drinking water, especially after heavy rain.

🎯Most drinking water in New Zealand is treated to remove harmful bacteria, viruses, and other organisms, but if you’re unsure about your area, you can check here: https://healthify.nz/hauora-wellbeing/d/drinking-water-safety

🩺If you’re ever uncertain about the quality of your water, or if an issue has been reported, boiling it for at least one minute is a simple way to keep it safe. And if you start feeling unwell, touching base with your healthcare provider is always a good idea.

💟February is Heart Health Awareness Month, and it’s a gentle reminder for all of us to pause and think about how we’re caring for our hearts.

❗Heart attacks continue to be one of the leading causes of death in New Zealand, and the small choices we make each day, like moving our bodies, eating well, quitting smoking, and keeping an eye on our health risks, can genuinely help protect our hearts.

🎯It also helps to know what early warning signs can look like. Pain or discomfort, dizziness, unusual tiredness, shortness of breath, sweating, or nausea can all be signs that something isn’t quite right. If you’re ever worried about yourself or someone close, don’t wait. Call 111 straight away.

🩺If you’d like to understand your heart health better, we encourage a check‑in with your practitioner. You can also get an early sense of your risk through the Heart Foundation’s My Heart Check tool: https://www.heartfoundation.org.nz/your-heart/my-heart-check

☀️ Summer holidays keep us busy with longer days outdoors, and its easy to forget something simple but essential: staying hydrated.

When your water levels drop, the first sign is thirst. Water supports many of your body’s daily functions, so not drinking enough can affect your health quickly.

🎯Early dehydration can show up as discomfort, low energy, flushed skin, and nausea. As it worsens, you may experience dizziness, headaches, difficulty breathing, or trouble swallowing. Long‑term mild dehydration also carries risks, with the likelihood of kidney stones, urinary tract cancers, some colon cancers, heart valve issues, and reduced physical and mental performance.

💧 This summer, keep water close, sip often, and listen to your body’s early signals. Staying hydrated helps you enjoy the season safely and comfortably.

☀️ As we head into the festive season and summer holidays, the perfect way to recharge will be spending more time outdoors. Sunburn doesn’t just sting in the moment; it damages your skin, and too much exposure can cause real harm.

❗Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer, with more than 2,000 cases reported in New Zealand each year. Sunburn not only damages your skin in the short term but also increases your risk of developing these cancers later in life. No matter your skin tone, UV radiation can cause lasting damage.

This summer, be sun smart:
✨ SLIP into a long-sleeved shirt or find shade
✨ SLOP on sunscreen of at least SPF30+
✨ SLAP on a wide-brimmed hat
✨ WRAP on sunglasses to protect your eyes

🌴Enjoy the festive season safely and protect your skin while you soak up the summer. Learn more about staying sun smart: https://healthify.nz/health-a-z/s/sunburn?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email%20marketing&utm_campaign=Healthify%20Tips%20-%20December

☀️ With summer in full swing, it’s a good time to keep an eye out for school sores (impetigo)—a common skin infection in children.

🩹 It often starts as small blisters and quickly turns into crusty, itchy patches. Scratching can spread it fast. A warm bath can help soothe the skin, followed by antiseptic cream from your local pharmacy. Keep the area covered, and if things aren’t improving after a couple of days, check in with your doctor.
