Dr. Selam delivered insightful remarks on the importance of spine health, highlighting simple yet effective steps to protect the spine and improve overall wellness. Coach Daniel Afework then took the stage, bringing energy and excitement as he led a practical exercise session called "10 Minutes for Health" (አስር ለጤና).

A big thank you to everyone who attended and participated in making this event a success. Together, we continue to prioritize our health, well-being, and a strong, pain-free future! 💡 Did you know?
