Are You Fully Vaccinated for Your Trip? Read more…

A lot goes into planning a trip abroad. From buying tickets, to requesting time off work, to getting everything squeezed into your suitcase, you have to make sure you’re prepared so that everything goes smoothly. The last thing you want whilst travelling are any unwelcome surprises. 

However, many travellers forget to do one of the most important things when it comes to preparing for a trip: getting travel vaccines. Depending on where you will be travelling, you may be at risk of contracting serious illnesses that aren’t usually a worry here in the UK. 

Travel Vaccinations

Travel Vaccinations

Travel vaccinations aren’t generally offered on the NHS so if you want to protect yourself, you’ll need to get vaccinated privately. Touchwood Pharmacy’s comprehensive travel clinics can help protect you from several diseases such as:

  • Malaria
  • Typhoid fever
  • Yellow fever
  • Rabies
  • Cholera
  • Japanese Encephalitis
  • Hepatitis 

If you’re unsure which vaccinations you may need, we can help. Our experts can go over your itinerary with you and make recommendations on vaccinations and any other precautions you should take. We can also provide you with suggested medications and toiletries you may need where you are going. 

Covid Travel Clinic 

Even though covid-19 isn’t as big of a risk as it was even just a year ago, the virus is still a concern, especially if you’ll be travelling. To limit the spread of the virus at home and abroad, many countries require proof of a negative covid test before you will be allowed past the border. 

Touchwood Pharmacy has covid-19 travel tests available for both departures and arrivals. We can give you peace of mind with our Fit-to-Fly PCR and Rapid Antigen tests and our approved Arrival testing kits. Whether you’re travelling for business or pleasure, or coming or going, book an appointment with us today so that you can travel with confidence.

Are you searching for a lasting solution to your facial wrinkles? then you're on the right article. Research has it that there are processes that facilitate wrinkle formation, thereby contributing to making us have a much older appearance and they include:  our everyday facial expression and loss of skin elasticity. Loss of skin elasticity happens alongside the loss of volume and it gives the long-term effect of sagging; it gives the feel of loose muscles, making them lack the firmness they normally should have.  Also, our everyday facial expressions refer to how we use our facial muscles.
