A 12-lead ECG captures a detailed snapshot of your heart’s electrical activity. Reviewed by a consultant cardiologist, it helps detect early signs of heart disease with expert accuracy and peace of mind.
Our body composition analysis goes far beyond basic BMI. It offers precise measurements of:
- Muscle Mass
- Body Fat Percentage
- Visceral (Toxic) Fat
High levels of visceral fat can increase your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and more. This test supports better health and performance, whether your goal is to improve your fitness or manage your weight.
Body Composition Analysis is included in the HealthCheck Vitality plan, available only at our Cherrywood Day Hospital in South Dublin.
VO₂ Max measures how efficiently your body uses oxygen during activity — one of the strongest indicators of long‑term health, resilience and overall longevity. You don’t need to be an athlete to benefit from this insight.

- Detect early warning signs of reduced heart or metabolic resilience
- Identify simple lifestyle changes that can meaningfully improve long-term health
- Strengthen your long-term “healthspan”, not just your fitness
Testing is supervised by a qualified exercise physiologist.
