Protect your health by finding out your risk of having a stroke by participating in the Life Line Screening that will be at Troutville Church Of The Brethren on Thursday, Jan. 17, 2013.

Through ultrasound, the carotid arteries can be evaluated for the buildup of fatty plaque, which is the leading cause of stroke. Register today for the Stroke, Vascular & Heart Rhythm package by either calling the special Helping Hands registration number or by signing up through the provided registration sheet (available on the flyers).

By signing up for this health event, not only will you be able to receive $10 off any package of $139 or more, but Troutville Church Of The Brethren will also receive a $10 donation for every member who signs up and attends this Life Line Screening event. The Stroke, Vascular & Heart Rhythm Package includes four screenings: carotid artery, abdominal aortic aneurysm, peripheral arterial disease and atrial fibrillation.

To schedule your appointment and to receive this special offer, please sign up on the flyers provided by Troutville Church Of The Brethren or by calling the designated Helping Hands number at: 1-800-324-9458. You may also sign up online by visiting www.helpinghandsforhealth.com. Join in the fight against vascular disease!
