The City Council promotes healthy habits among the elderly (15/11/2017)

"It is expected that more than 350 people participate in these conferences that include healthy initiatives related to physical exercise and preventive medical controls."

The Department of Health has organized a conference to promote healthy living habits, especially among the elderly.

The days, which take place throughout the week, include the practice of outdoor exercise in the various parks of the municipality and districts.

In particular, the elderly, guided by a specialized monitor, learn to use the different elements of the gerontojardines and biosaludables zones installed in the numerous parks of the town.

The activity of gerontogimnasia begins with exercises of warming with elements like the steering wheel or the wheel to improve the musculature, the flexibility and the agility of the articulations.

Next, they perform coordination and stretching exercises with other devices such as scales or cross-country skiing.

The Councilor for Health, Andrés López, explained that "from the City Council is committed to improving the quality of life of the Lumbrerenses, in this case encouraging the use of outdoor gerontogimnasia devices installed, which are available to all citizens at any time. "

López added that "we want our parks to be places where families, the elderly, children and young people live together, creating places adapted to the needs of each of the groups".

On the other hand, healthy days include free listening and lung checks for citizens.

Those interested in knowing their hearing capacity should go to the Puerto Lumbreras Clinic on Monday, November 20 from 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and on Wednesday, November 22, at the same time, to check lung function.

In addition, on November 24 all those people who want to know their blood group may also do so at Clínica Puerto Lumbreras.

To conclude, Andrés López pointed out that "it is expected that more than 350 people participate in these conferences that include healthy initiatives related to physical exercise and preventive medical controls."

Finally, it should be noted that the program of activities has been implemented by the City of Puerto Lumbreras in collaboration with Clínica Puerto Lumbreras.
