Hamada Hospital's Upcoming Seminar on Women's Low Back Pain
Hamada Hospital, a long-established medical institution with a history of over 130 years, will hold a seminar focused on women's low back pain on August 2, 2025. This event aims to educate and empower women regarding prevention techniques and treatment options available for back pain—a common issue many women face.
As a part of its commitment to provide top-notch medical care using the latest technologies, Hamada Hospital integrates traditional values with advanced medical practices. With a specialized orthopedic department starting as of June 2025, the hospital welcomes a greater focus on women's health issues. The hospital creates an environment where female patients can receive empathetic and knowledgeable care tailored to their unique needs.
To facilitate this initiative, the hospital plans to host regular monthly seminars starting May 2025, which will cover various health concerns specific to women, including taboo topics traditionally overlooked in many discussions about health.
The upcoming seminar will feature Dr. Akira Shinohara, a leading orthopedic specialist who specializes in spinal disorders in women. His reputation for utilizing minimally invasive spine treatment techniques is well established. During the seminar, he will address the underlying conditions that commonly affect women's health, including osteoporosis, which can be a cause of low back pain. Participants will benefit from Dr. Shinohara’s insights into risk factors unique to women's health as well as practical advice on preventive measures.
The hospital has received numerous requests to hold Dr. Shinohara's seminar on-site, leading to the decision to make this event accessible to the public. Both men and women are encouraged to attend, especially those who may have family members dealing with low back pain. This interactive session will provide attendees with the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers directly from Dr. Shinohara, enhancing their understanding of how to manage back pain effectively.
