Regular exercise offers benefits to everyone, even elderly and people with limited mobility, who are more essential to enjoy the mind and health-boosting benefits of being active. If injury, disability, illness and weight problems have limited your mobility, try seated chair exercise! This set of stretches helps you experience and reap the physical, mental and emotional rewards of staying active at your own capacity. If needed, please take to your doctor, physical therapist or other health care provider about the activities suitable for your medical conditions.

適度運動對任何人都有益身心,包括更需要舒緩身心的老人和行動不便人士。如果受傷、身障、疾病和體重問題令你難以走動,請嘗試坐式伸展!你會有新的體會去享受運動可帶給你在身心情緒上的好處。當然,量力而為很重要;如有疑問,請先請教醫護人員。
