Today (April 7) is World Health Day, and the National Health Commission has set the theme of China's propaganda campaign as "Health for All, Promoting Health Together".
The common hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia are commonly known as the "three highs". If not properly managed, it will cause six major complications, including coronary heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, fundus lesions, peripheral neuropathy, and peripheral vascular disease, referred to as the "six diseases". "Three highs" co-management, enjoy health. Early exercise intervention can effectively alleviate or reverse the course of the "three highs" disease, and nowadays, many community hospitals at the doorstep have established rehabilitation centers that can prescribe "exercise".
Mr. Cui, who is 183 cm tall and 42 years old, is doing squat and stretching exercises at the Dapuqiao Street Community Health Service Center. He looked like a strong man, but he suffered from a chronic "three highs" disease, but the general practitioner asked him to go to the rehabilitation center to get an "exercise prescription".
Mr. Cui said: "Exercise rehabilitation can be carried out here, which can achieve the purpose of losing weight and regulating various body functions. I have a high blood sugar and want to lower my blood sugar through exercise. ”
Under the guidance of therapists from the community rehabilitation center, Mr. Cui exercised for a period of time to regulate blood sugar levels, relax blood vessels, and reduce body fat.
"The effect is quite good, about a month, the weight has dropped by about 10 pounds, and the blood sugar has dropped from the original 16 to about 8, which is still far from the normal level, and I have to continue to adjust. ”
The rehabilitation center is equipped with a rhythm relaxation area, a strength training area, an aerobic training area, a flexible stretching area and other exercise areas. According to the characteristics of Mr. Cui's chronic disease, the therapist instructed him to exercise several times a week, how long to exercise every day, and how to exercise safely, and formulated the "321" exercise principle.
Zhang Yang, head therapist of the rehabilitation department of the Dapuqiao Street Community Health Service Center, said: "Our '321' means, 3 refers to exercise three times a week, 2 refers to two types of exercise, including aerobic and anaerobic, aerobic refers to aerobic exercises such as running, jogging and swimming, anaerobic refers to some strength training, including barbells, dumbbells, etc., and 1 refers to one hour of exercise at a time. ”
In the community rehabilitation center, it not only provides rehabilitation treatment for stroke sequelae, spinal injury diseases, soft tissue injuries, osteoarthropathy and other common diseases, but also provides early on-site intervention, which is more suitable for patients with low exercise risk, but low motivation for exercise, and need to be supervised by others.
It is understood that the coverage of community rehabilitation in Shanghai continues to expand, and 119 demonstration community rehabilitation centers have been built in the city last year, and by 2025, more than 50% of the city's community health service centers will be built into demonstration community rehabilitation centers.
