Empowering Women's Health: Osteoporosis Care Seminar

Hamada Hospital, part of the medical foundation Obatakai, is hosting an informative seminar on osteoporosis on October 8, 2025, aimed at promoting women's health. This initiative underlines the hospital's commitment to addressing the unique healthcare challenges faced by women, particularly regarding osteoporosis, which significantly affects women's quality of life post-menopause.

A Legacy of Care

Founded over 130 years ago, Hamada Hospital has a rich history of providing exceptional healthcare while integrating modern medical technologies to offer the best possible services to its patients. The hospital is dedicated to ensuring that its female patients receive specialized attention through the establishment of a dedicated orthopedics department catering exclusively to women, set to commence operations in June 2025.

To promote awareness about women's health issues, the hospital has initiated regular monthly seminars led by qualified professionals. These sessions aim to educate women on critical health matters, focusing on strategies to maintain strong bones and prevent osteoporosis.

Seminar Details

On the upcoming seminar day, Dr. Shunsuke Katsumi, a specialist in spinal disorders, will be presenting. With his extensive experience and expertise, Dr. Katsumi will explain the mechanism of bone density and quality reduction, emphasizing the need for early prevention, especially as women face increased risk of osteoporosis around the age of 50 due to menopause. His presentation will cover various aspects, from understanding the disease's symptoms—which often appear subtly at first—to practical lifestyle changes and effective treatment methods.

Previous Seminar Success

The previous seminar, conducted in September, attracted participants from diverse age groups, ranging from 30 to 80 years old. Attendees expressed their satisfaction with the session, with many acknowledging its effectiveness in raising awareness about osteoporosis. Feedback included remarks about the clarity of the information presented and an eagerness to actively pursue preventive measures.

Open to All

The upcoming seminar invites not just women concerned about their bone health, but also family members and anyone interested in learning more about osteoporosis. Attendees can ask questions directly during the seminar, ensuring an engaging and informative experience.
