Health Promotion Seminar at Nagaokakyo Hospital

Nagaokakyo Hospital, located in Kyoto, Japan, will be hosting an engaging seminar on exercise and health promotion on March 26. This event, organized in collaboration with Central Medience, is specifically designed to offer valuable insights to the local community regarding health and wellness.

The seminar is part of a series that began in June 2023, which has gained popularity among participants. In the context of the pandemic, people's awareness of health issues has significantly risen, prompting the hospital to provide accurate and beneficial information through expert-led seminars. This upcoming session marks the 19th event and will feature Megumi Maeda, the Deputy Head of the Rehabilitation Department and an occupational therapist, discussing the theme of "dementia prevention".

Following her presentation, attendees will engage in practical activities, including the "Okuki Bamboo Shoot Digging Exercise" and fitness assessments aimed at supporting their health journeys. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and join in on this fulfilling experience.

In addition to the exercise-based activities, a nutrition consultation session led by a registered dietitian will also take place on the same day. Nutrition is just as crucial as physical activity in maintaining a healthy body, so attendees wishing to consult are advised to make a reservation in advance.
