'I don't know what to give for Father's Day this year,' or 'I'm concerned about my parent's walking style every time I visit.' These comments from the 40s-50s generation have spread, leading to support for this book as a way to 'give a healthy habit instead of a physical object.' Released on April 30, 2026, 'Walk for Life Without Stress! 5mm Wall Exercises' (Sanctuary Publishing) is a compilation of fall prevention methods by Takeru Fukushima, a chiropractor and researcher on preventing bedridden states who has achieved a near-zero re-admission rate due to injuries. You can start 'fall prevention' with just one towel in 30 seconds a day. In Japan, there is a significant gap between average life expectancy and healthy life expectancy, and one of the major factors is 'falls.' This book focuses on the fact that about 80% of falls among the elderly occur due to a gap of just 5mm, and covers exercises that parents and children can do together, as well as tips for improving daily life.
