Get the health to match the lifestyle with HealthCheQ


Living a fast-paced lifestyle has its fair share of success and challenges. While the benefits of success might be fulfilling, other equally important facets of living get compromised along the way.

While we tend to overlook what’s really important on the way to the top. Not getting enough rest, skipping meals, and acquiring vices might be the reflexes to help one cope with stress, these actions actually contribute to the steady deterioration of one’s health. Left unchecked, these may lead to more serious complications.

While habit and routine might make it difficult to make lifestyle changes for health’s interest, it always helps to know what you are up against. Visiting the doctor and getting regular checkups are the measurements to monitor and prevent any possible ailments that may arise.

Healthway Medical the most preferred mall-based clinic, makes health care accessible, easy, and convenient. It actively promotes a healthy and preventive lifestyle through offering personal and efficient health care, while making trips to the clinic more exciting and interesting through their different services.
At a recent event at the Nurture Spa Village in Tagaytay City, Healthway responded the need for a more holistic approach to healthcare by launching its premium brand of executive checkup package called HealthCheQ.

Lab tests such as Blood and Urine Examination, imaging studies such as X-rays and Ultrasound, along with special exams like Treadmill Stress Tests can all be done within half a day in any of Healthway’s facilities. Using some of the most advanced technologies in healthcare, the exclusive package guarantees results turnover within 24 hours upon completion of tests, this also includes Specialist Consult for evaluation.

What’s great about the HealthCheQ package is that it covers the whole spectrum of caring for health and general wellbeing. Each HealthCheQ holder is also entitled to an overnight pampering experience from Healthway Medical’s partner hotels, resorts, and spas.

“This is another service of ‘Alagang Healthway’ that promotes a preventive lifestyle through an executive checkup and total relaxation from our partner resorts, hotels, and spas,” says Carmie de Leon, Healthway Medical Vice President for Sales and Marketing.

“This package is also ideal for corporate people who need to relax and revitalize. It is packaged at  PHP15,000 with a complete set of tests and consultation.” De Leon adds that HealthCheQ allows you to take charge of your health, as a CEO would his or her company.  

“Take charge of your health. We want you to be the CEO of your own health.” 

Patients can enjoy a leisurely overnight experience from any of Healthway’s prime partners. They can choose from exclusive hotels including the historic Manila Hotel and the Midas Hotel & Casino located at the heart of Metro Manila. Luxurious accommodations south of the city are also available at the Acacia Hotel, the Bellevue Hotel, and the B Hotel situated among the sophisticated suburbs of Ayala Alabang.

Kim Chiu, Ate Vi’s personal Choice in “The Healing”



Primetime princess Kim Chiu celebrates a major milestone in her showbiz career as she work for the first time with Star for All Seasons Vilma Santos in a one-of-a-kind suspense-horror Star Cinema film titled, “The Healing.”

“Working with Governor Vi is such a wonderful experience. I learned a lot from her as an actress and as a person. I felt like because of her, my acting skills were developed,” said Kim, who was Vilma’s personal choice in her first-ever suspense-horror movie that is ABS-CBN and Star Cinema’s tribute to her 50 illustrious years in showbiz.
The first “Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition” big winner also revealed how kind and generous Vilma was as a co-actor. "Ate Vi is so approachable and down-to-earth. She doesn’t have 'walls' so everyone feels free to talk her," shared Kim.

The young actress was also thankful of how the Star for All Seasons herself helped her in delivering her mysterious character in “The Healing” which is a story about the Filipino tradition of going to faith healers for guidance and treatment of ailments. Kim imparted, “Ate Vi told me, ‘Huwag mong sasayangin ang eksena. Ibigay mo na, minsan lang ito mangyari. Huwag mong isipin na ako si Ate Vi.”

With the inspiration given by Vilma, Kim gave her all in every challenging scene of the movie that is set to prove that the former teen sensation is now full-fledged actress. “The cast and staff are all professional. So each time that I arrive in the set, I’ve already memorized all my lines and I’m already prepared since I’m working with no less than Direk Chito Roño and the whole team, plus Governor Vilma, of course,” she said.

In honor of Vilma's 50th anniversary, Star Cinema gathered an all-star highly acclaimed powerhouse cast composed of Kim, Janice de Belen, Mark Gil, Martin del Rosario, Jhong Hilario, Allan Paule, Cris Villanueva, Daria Ramirez, Ces Quesada, Ynez Veneracion, Simon Ibarra, Abi Bautista, Joel Torre, Chinggoy Alonso, Mon Confiado, Carmi Martin and Pokwang!
“The Healing” is showing in cinemas nationwide.
