A bio-information measuring includes a detector including a light source emitting light to a hand of an examinee and an optical receiver receiving the light emitted from the light source; and a supporter bent to clamp a paddle between fingers of the examinee. The clamping portion of the supporter is provided with the detector. The bio-information measuring apparatus also includes a measurer worn on the examinee, measuring bio-information based on pulse wave data obtained from the optical receiver; and a puller pulling the support member toward the measurer.

A health management apparatus includes a first pulse wave measuring unit that measures a first pulse wave of a subject during sleep; and a second pulse wave measuring unit that measures a second pulse wave of the subject during sleep. The second pulse wave is different from the first pulse wave in propagation time from the heart of the subject. The apparatus also includes a pulse transmission time calculating unit that calculates a pulse transmission time indicating a time difference between the first and second pulse waves; a pulse interval calculating unit that calculates a pulse interval based on at least one of the first and second pulse waves; an autonomic nerve index calculating unit that calculates an autonomic nerve index based on the pulse transmission time and the pulse interval; and a health determining unit that determines the condition of health of the subject based on the autonomic nerve index.
