31-03-2023

It has been a week full of new activities to celebrate Physical Activity Week, promote Health and fight against the sedentary epidemic: Physical Activity, Movement and Sport for people's well-being.

Thanks to the powerful Physical Activity program that users receive and that they already have as a habit, it has led us to organize this healthy week with the aim of consolidating a message that has been with us since they started the Physical Activity program :

"More movement less disease. Exercise is the best medicine"

The seventh edition of this active week is made up of many activities that have been programmed for the users of the Montilivi i Llagostera Occupational Therapy Service and Llars - Residences in Fontajau i Sarrià to enjoy this day and, an important aspect to stand out, receive different learning methodologies from other professionals in the adapted wellness sector.

Monday:
