Being a mom has made me want to be the healthiest version of myself. I want to make sure I can show up energized, strong, and for as long as possible in the future. I want to enjoy my grand kids, and who knows, maybe my great-grand kids too.
This is why I decided to go to Prenuvo and take a step forward into proactive health.
They use advanced MRI to perform a scan free of radiation or contrast (making it a safe screening tool, unlike others) that is able to detect solid cancerous tumors at stage 1 and around 500 other conditions (including aneurysms, spine herniations, musculoskeletal conditions, fatty liver disease & more).
Because the vast majority of cancers and medical conditions found are at a very early stage, which typically occur in mostly asymptomatic patients. And early detection is key for successful health outcomes. 1/20 people actually find potentially life-saving insights!
The experience was so seamless, I booked an appointment at my closest location, and did all my paperwork online before I showed up to save time in-person (especially because I had to bring Valentina so I wanted it to be as smooth and quick as possible). Nathan came with us so he could hold her, and I went in, changed into the Prenuvo's PJs and slippers and went straight to the MRI machine, they explained how things worked super easily and I was able to choose my favorite Netflix show to watch during the scan.
Once I layed down I was comfortable and honestly it was the perfect temperature too, although they warned me I would maybe get cold, but I didn't. I started watching the show and at some points through the scan, they notified me to breath in, out, and hold my breath so it was easy to follow instructions (without stopping the show, which was a great distraction). I only had to repeat two breaths to get better imaging, because I had moved a little, but overall it was so easy to stay still. I was honestly pleasantly surprised.
When I got out, Valentina was sleeping with Nathan and I took advantage of snacking with their amazing healthy selection of snacks, and drinks, since I hadnt eaten in 5h (they make you fast 4h before the scan) while I also allowed her to get a bit of a nap in before hitting the road back.
They’re rapidly expanding all over Canada and the US, and internationally soon too. So save this for later and share with your friends, because the more awareness, the sooner they can bring costs down and make this screening affordable at a larger scale. But check out this link for a $300 off directly applied and choose between their scan options and locations to get great peace of mind for yourself or any of your family members too!
