Where can I find a chiropractor?

You may ask your travel insurance which chiropractors they recommend.

 

Where can I rent medical aids (e.g. wheelchair, crutches, walker)

Please find below some selection we made for you:

Many pharmacies (“farmacia”) and medical equipment providers on the Canary Islands offer wheelchairs, walkers, crutches for sale or rental. Destination & Services+1
If you cannot find one near Tijarafe, try a larger town on La Palma and ask if they deliver to your location.
 Another option: a specialist Spanish-company offers walking aids and wheelchairs for hire with hotel delivery.

 

Where can I test my blood (e.g. thrombosis, diabetes) ?

You need to go to an analytical laboratory.
