Men’s Health Takes Center Stage in Porto Venere
Portovenere is gearing up to host a day dedicated to men’s health on Saturday, November 30th, as part of the national “LILT for Men – Nastro Blue” campaign. This initiative, organized by LILT La Spezia with support from the Municipality of Porto Venere, Public Assistance, and CAI La Spezia, aims to raise awareness about male-specific health issues and empower men to take proactive steps towards better well-being.
Free Health Checkups and Outdoor Wellness
The day will feature two key events: free medical visits and a combined urban trekking and yoga session.
Starting at 10:00 am in the Public Assistance clinic located in Piazza Bastreri, Dr. Francesco Tani, a urologist and dedicated LILT volunteer, will offer free consultations. Reservations are recommended and can be made by sending a WhatsApp message to 340 4041046 (while appointments last). This is a valuable opportunity for men to address any concerns and receive professional advice.
At 11:00 am, the focus shifts outdoors. Participants are invited to meet at the car park on Via Olivo Seconda Traversa, known as the “Ultima Spiaggia” area, for an invigorating 5-kilometer trek through the picturesque pathways and alleys of Portovenere.
Exploring the “A Mountain of Prevention” Project
This urban trekking journey is part of the “A Mountain of Prevention” project, a collaborative effort by LILT and CAI La Spezia. Throughout the trek, experts will discuss the importance of healthy lifestyles, emphasizing the connection between physical activity, nutrition, and stress management. The trek culminates in a rejuvenating yoga session led by instructor Romina Carne, held in the serene setting of the Byron Cave.
A Symbol of Prevention Illuminates the Night Sky
As part of the Blue Ribbon campaign, the municipality of Portovenere will illuminate the church of San Pietro in a beautiful shade of blue.
This symbolic gesture serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preventative measures and encourages open conversations about men’s health.
Promoting Early Detection and Proactive Care
“Adopting correct lifestyles and undergoing regular check-ups,” emphasizes Laura Lombardi, president of LILT, “are fundamental elements for men’s health. Porto Venere’s ‘Nastro Blu’ initiative aims to encourage men to take better care of their health, to talk about it openly, and to participate in prevention visits.”
