On Tuesdays and Thursdays, her daughter takes her to the Din Daeng Health Centre for the Elderly on Mit Maitri Road in Din Daeng district for the aquatic therapy exercise programme. The programme is part of a physical therapy course offered by the centre situated next to the Thai-Japan Bangkok Youth Centre. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, Ms Salee enjoys recreational activities the health centre has to offer. Social worker Uakamol Rugsrithong, who heads the Din Daeng Health Centre for the Elderly, said the aquatic therapy treatment services were launched in February last year. Therapist Ruangrith Rattanalapoo said aquatic therapy exercise is a good form of physical activity for older people, with no risk of injuries from falling down.
