[Wooridul News] 2nd International Disc Talk

 

 

 International patient center in Gangnam Wooridul Hospital had 2nd international disc talk on 3rd of August. Disc talk is for sharing about disc and spine with patients and people whoever interested in disc and spinal joint disease for free. This had held usually for Korean but this was the international one, especially for Arab, so most of programs were going in Arabic and also English. What we prepared are lecture about disc, self-exercises, consultation, and in-body check. Those were all free.

 

 

 

 International Disc Talk was held at Fraserplace hotel in Seoul from 16:00 – 18:00. We were so looking forward to see many Arab people to come and join this useful event!

 

 

 

 

 

People who came earlier tried to do In-Body check. This simple check is going to show you BMI, muscle mass to name a few and give you recommended meal for your diet and balanced body. It takes within 1 minute. How impressive!

 

 

 

As people came along, we started 2nd International Disc Talk. First of all, Dr. Han-Joong Keum from Wooridul Hospital gave us a lecture about spine and disc. Do you know 80% of people have experienced spinal diseases in their lives? It’s quite common disease but if it is not cured, it will be a serious problem and surgery will be needed, so it has to be aware of.

 

 

 

 

 

After lecture from doctor, we learnt some of self-exercises to do themselves at home to prevent diseases and stretch muscles whenever and wherever.
People are interested in this so they started trying standing and lying down on the floor. It is easy and useful for healthy spine. Some of people were taking pictures and video to do in their home.

 


We also had a time for lucky draw. The paper they got has a number each, they could get a free gift. They were happy with that.

 

 

 

After all programs, we made a time for free consultation with doctor and In-body check. They could ask doctor their symptoms or anything they had wanted to ask and wondered, he gave them good answers and recommendations to keep their spine healthy.
For In-body check, they had a body scan within 1 minute and got a results paper, and they also could got explanation from doctor or physical therapist in English or Arabic. The paper showed you how to keep your health and how to go on a proper diet.

 

 

Entire programs we prepared were done so well and everyone satisfied with those. One of them came to the front saying that he wanted to say something for these great events. He said he appreciated and it made us appreciated for that too!
There will be another international disc talk someday. Whoever didn’t join this event, I hope you feel free to come to get useful knowledge for your healthy spine and disc!!
