Hello!!

This is Igarashi from Life Force Chiropractic.

This blog post is about when all our staff went to play at the beach.

This time we rented a boat and went snorkeling off the coasts of Urasoe and Ginowan.

Since I’ve been in Okinawa for over 10 years as a dive boat captain, handling the boat is a piece of cake.

Our first spot was off Parco, mainly focusing on the shallow reef around 3 meters deep.

The next spot was Coral Garden, a shallow reef called Janabishi right near Ginowan Marina.

Both spots have abundant coral, but perhaps due to no typhoons last summer or this summer and high water temperatures, many branch corals had died off. The corals that should have been colorful had turned brown.

(I’ll include some underwater photos I took years ago of the vibrant coral for comparison.)

Still, the fish were as plentiful as ever, making for an amazing snorkeling experience.

After getting out of the water, we moved a bit and had a barbecue at Pool Sado.

After everyone enjoyed the lively barbecue, we swam hard in the pool too, continuing the fun from the ocean.

All the staff had a truly enjoyable day off and felt refreshed.

At Life Force Chiropractic, we give our all to both work and play.

Our entire staff looks forward to welcoming you.

Maybe because I enjoyed myself too much or hadn’t swum in a while, I suffered from some serious leg cramps that night.
