Aster Pharmacy becomes Official Happiness Partner of Arab Health

Aster Pharmacy has announced a series of events as Official Happiness Partner of Arab Health, being held in Dubai.
Dr. Azad Moopen, Founder Chairman & Managing Director, Aster DM Healthcare commented, "Supporting the visionary ideas of the benevolent rulers of UAE, happiness remains at the core of everything we do. With a commitment to creating a healthier and happier society, we are proud to be the Happiness Partner at Arab Health. As one of the region's largest private healthcare providers, we will continue supporting the UAE's growth as the leading destination for quality healthcare by making the highest standards of care easily available and accessible, whilst continuing to strengthen our efforts in enhancing patient and customer experience."
A variety of healthcare awareness activities including those based on Virtual Reality (VR) will be hosted at the Aster Pharmacy pavilion that is located at the main concourse stall no. CC 70. Visitors who participate in these the happiness-focused activities will get stamps on the Aster Passport along with a specially curated 'box of happiness'.
Highlighting the growing role of technology to help manage phobias and irrational fears, visitors will be encouraged to select themes such as stress and nicotine addiction to appear as competitors in a VR gaming environment. Users are then encouraged by the Aster mascot to 'punch' their addictions away. 
Among other experiences, the participant chooses a happiness goal and starts pedaling towards it in a setting that utilizes terrain options on stationary exercise bike, imposed against a health mirror showing the user's health indicators.
The pavilion will also host a BATAK reaction test machine that pushes users to put out as many lights as possible, the lights appearing randomly on the grid. This technique is often used by athletes to help develop hand-eye coordination and reflexes.
