It is widely believed that exercise causes injuries, yet a sedentary lifestyle also brings severe health risks. Joint degeneration troubles the elderly, while long hours of sitting leave office workers with chronic neck, shoulder and waist strain. Sports medicine serves the general public and aging populations just as much as athletes. Jiang Chunyan, vice president of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, explained in an interview with CGTN how sports medicine adapts to ordinary people's needs, eases physical ailments and enhances overall quality of life. Beyond relieving pain and repairing injuries, it motivates people to embrace daily movement. Besides physical treatment, regular exercise is still the most accessible way to sustain long-term health. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922
