Kokoromil and Hijikata Pharmacy Join Forces for Health Check Event

Kokoromil and Hijikata Pharmacy Collaboration

In a noteworthy initiative aimed at enhancing community health, Kokoromil, a company based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, known for pioneering home ECG testing through its service "Home Heart Dock®", is partnering with Hijikata Pharmacy to conduct a health check experience event. Scheduled for May 18, 2025, from 2 PM to 5 PM, this event will be held at the Hijikata Pharmacy located in Tokyo's Shinjuku district.

The mission of Kokoromil is to create a society free from regret over health issues. Heart disease ranks as the second leading cause of death in Japan according to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's reports for 2023, coming just after cancer. This alarming statistic signifies the critical importance of early detection and prevention in combating heart diseases. The number of affected individuals continues to rise annually, underscoring the necessity for proactive health measures.

Last September, Kokoromil and Hijikata Pharmacy organized a seminar focused on heart disease and arrhythmias, aiming to elevate public health awareness and provide accurate knowledge about these serious conditions. An impressive satisfaction rate of 100% was reported in post-event surveys, which encouraged the organizations to take a further step by offering tangible health assessments through the upcoming health check experience.

During the event, participants will have access to two significant kinds of simple tests. The first is a blood flow assessment, which provides valuable insights into vascular health and overall blood circulation. It is critical to understand cardiovascular status, especially since arrhythmias can increase the likelihood of blood clots, raising risks for strokes and other severe conditions. The second test involves a user-friendly ECG evaluation through Kokoromil's "Home Heart Dock®", allowing participants to visualize their heart health.

In addition, attendees can purchase the normally online-exclusive "Home Heart Dock® Pro" at a special 25% discount, priced at ¥14,850 instead of the standard ¥19,800. This service stands out by detecting arrhythmias with a remarkable accuracy rate of 37%, compared to the 10.3% found in traditional health screenings—the potential for early identification of hidden health risks is thus greatly enhanced.

This event is seen as an excellent opportunity for community members to reassess their health status and take proactive steps towards better cardiovascular health. Kokoromil remains committed to helping individuals visualize their own and their families’ health, aspiring to improve quality of life and extend healthy lifespan.
