AOK-Gesundheitstag im Universum Bremen

In the organizer's words:

Back pain and heart disease are the focus of the AOK Health Day on April 4, 2024 from 3.30 p.m. at Universum Bremen. AOK Bremen/Bremerhaven wants to do something about the widespread disease of back pain with this offer for interested parties and patients, but also to promote heart health and offer concrete help and tips for more exercise in everyday life. After all, regular daily exercise not only strengthens the back, but also has a positive effect on the cardiovascular system.

The "movement doctor" Dr. Helge Riepenhof, known from NDR television, will be live on site. Under the motto "Exercise is the best medicine", Dr. Helge Riepenhof will report on his experience in sports and rehabilitation medicine.
