In celebration of the 35th International Day of Older Persons, American Chiropractic Clinics (ACC) – a member of FV Group was honoured to support the Tan Dinh Ward Community Day for Older Adults in Ho Chi Minh City as a medical sponsor. The event brought together older residents for a meaningful day focused on community connection, health and well-being.
Supporting Musculoskeletal Health for Older Adults
As part of the event, Dr. Rob Sleiman, Medical Director of ACC, and Dr. Hoisang Gong, a Doctor of Chiropractic with more than 10 years of experience, were on site to provide health consultations and assessments, as well as practical advice on concerns related to the spine, musculoskeletal system and mobility.
The consultations also provided an opportunity for participants to discuss common challenges they may experience in their daily lives and learn more about maintaining mobility as they age.
Staying Active at Every Stage of Life
For older adults, the ability to move comfortably during everyday activities from walking and standing to sitting, bending and spending time with family can play an important role in maintaining independence and quality of life.
Understanding the body, taking a proactive approach to musculoskeletal health and maintaining appropriate physical activity can be an important part of staying active and engaged in daily life.
Rather than focusing solely on existing discomfort or limitations, a proactive approach to health encourages individuals to better understand their bodies and develop habits that support movement and overall well-being as they age.
ACC – Expert in Motion
For 20 years, ACC has been part of the Vietnamese community, providing care for patients with musculoskeletal and spinal conditions while also working to bring practical health knowledge closer to the wider community.
As Expert in Motion, ACC believes that supporting better movement goes beyond clinical care. Through community activities, educational workshops and health-focused initiatives, ACC aims to help people better understand their musculoskeletal health and make informed choices about movement and well-being.
The Tan Dinh Ward Community Day for Older Adults is part of this ongoing journey – one that reflects ACC’s commitment to supporting the Vietnamese community through every stage of life.
On International Day of Older Persons, we wish all older adults continued health, confidence in movement and many meaningful moments with family, friends and the community.
