AI healthcare startup VivaLabs is partnering with Pangyo Community Welfare Center to launch a customized health management program for middle-aged and older adults. The program will begin with an entrance ceremony on August 21st and run for approximately three months until November 27th.
This collaboration will be operated in the form of a 'Middle-aged and Elderly Health Academy' that comprehensively manages cognitive function and physical health for residents aged 45 to 70 within the local community, and is characterized by combining VivaLabs' AI-based exercise prescription solution with the welfare center's existing wellness program.
VivaLabs offers "Easytenics," an AI strength measurement and exercise prescription solution, and "Easyflex," a professional-led exercise management system. The welfare center operates its own cognitive and physical integration program, "Early School," and this program organically integrates these services.
Designed to ensure that even those with underlying medical conditions can safely participate, this program quantitatively measures key health indicators such as blood sugar, body composition, and muscle strength, and implements an integrated health management model that encourages personalized exercise and lifestyle improvement based on these measurements.
An official from Pangyo Integrated Social Welfare Center stated, “Through this collaboration, we have added customized exercise prescriptions based on quantitative health data to the cognitive and physical integration program,” adding, “We expect that this will enable more precise and sustainable management based on the individual health status of middle-aged and older adults.”
'Early School' is an integrated wellness program that combines cognitive training, brain activity programs, color psychology activities, and various physical activities such as Nordic walking, group PT, and stretching. Participants are seeing benefits such as improved memory, concentration, and emotional stability.
VivaLabs stated that the program was designed to enable middle-aged and older people with various health issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, and post-surgical rehabilitation to exercise safely, and that it focused on applicability and sustainable operation in actual welfare settings.
“This program is a case study of how technology-driven solutions are connected to the welfare field to produce tangible health care effects,” said Ha-young Lim, CEO of VivaLabs. “We will continue to expand our collaboration with various welfare organizations to spread our customized senior healthcare model nationwide.”
