Brief Answer:
You can do it yourself

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

You can yourself check your heart rate by measuring your pulse.
You put 3 fingers over the hand bone (radial bone) above your thumb and feel for the pulsation. Measure it for 60seconds and this is your pulse rate and heart rate.

Thanks and take care.
