EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photo captured by Toru Hanai, participants engage in a unique therapy called Otonamaki, or "adult wrapping" at a session in Asaka, Saitama prefecture, Japan. The image showcases a group of individuals covered from head to toe in large swaddling cloth as they perform the therapeutic exercise. Otonamaki is an innovative form of therapy aimed at alleviating posture problems and stiffness. It involves being tightly wrapped in cloth to create a cocoon-like environment that promotes relaxation and flexibility. The silhouette of the participants against the interior backdrop creates an almost ritualistic ambiance. The photograph highlights the creative use of this Japanese therapy as physiotherapists explore unconventional methods to address body-related issues. While their identities remain unrecognizable due to the covering cloth, their commitment to improving their well-being is evident. There is something both humorous and unusual about seeing adults swaddled like infants during this exercise. However, it serves as a reminder that sometimes we need to step outside our comfort zones and embrace alternative approaches for self-care. Toru Hanai's skillful capture allows us to witness this fascinating practice firsthand while leaving room for interpretation on its effectiveness. Overall, this thought-provoking image invites us to consider different perspectives on wellness and challenges traditional notions of therapy.
