Romatem Health Group organized a healthy life seminar at İnci and Taner Altınmakas Nursing Home of Nilüfer Municipality in order to improve the quality of life of elderly individuals and to encourage active aging.
Romatem Sports Physician Assoc. Prof. Dr. Melda Pelin Yargıç Çelen, who attended the event as a speaker, explained the effects of an active lifestyle on physical health in old age. The seminar emphasized the critical role of regular exercise in preventing rheumatic diseases, protecting the musculoskeletal system and maintaining independence in daily life activities.
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Çelen said, "Daily movements such as bending, getting up, climbing stairs should not be avoided. Especially after-dinner walks should become a habit" and offered practical suggestions for a healthy life to the participants. He also drew attention to the importance of doing aerobic exercises for 20-30 minutes a few days a week for individuals over the age of 65 in terms of both physical and mental health.
After the seminar, practical exercises were practiced with the residents of the nursing home. With simple strength and balance exercises, participants had the opportunity to experience movements that can be easily practiced in daily life.
As Romatem, we continue to organize events that will raise awareness in order to improve the quality of life of elderly individuals and support their active participation in society.
