June 21 marks the summer solstice, the day with the longest daylight hours of the year and a turning point toward the height of summer. During this season, managing health becomes crucial due to increased exposure to sunlight, sweating, skin concerns, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. 'Pon' envisions this day as an opportunity for women around 50 to re-evaluate their bodies.
The name 'Pon' reflects the commitment of multi-disciplinary licensed medical professionals—PTs (physical therapists), OTs (occupational therapists), and NSs (nurses)—to support community health. They aim to be an accessible presence in daily life, not just within hospitals.
Women around 50, often busy with work and housework, tend to postpone self-care despite experiencing simultaneous changes in skin, posture, and physical condition. The future demands a perspective of knowing, adjusting, and preventing health issues in daily life. 'Pon' proposes a new form of health creation where medical professionals step outside hospitals to connect directly with community members.
Event experiences include:
- Skin/Scalp Check: Nurses and public health nurses will assess the skin and scalp environment typical for summer.
- Posture Check & Stretch: Physical therapists will analyze posture habits and teach sustainable corrective exercises.
- Hip Make: An approach based on posture and muscle mechanics to address changes in silhouette and body shape.
- Lymph/Body Care: Treatments provided by occupational therapists.
