 In communities of the 21st century, health professionals must approach people as social beings in order to promote health and well-being. Although Japanese occupational therapists have striven to help the elderly to enjoy an independent life, they do not have the appropriate theoretical framework to approach them as socio-cultural beings. This paper is a case study investigating the significance of positive aging for an elderly woman with a history of stroke, as well as the people around her, including her occupational therapist, and the influence of occupational therapy in promoting positive aging. I came to understand that for this elderly woman and the people around her, good aging consisted of overcoming the life crisis caused by a significant event (her stroke), and that the occupational therapist promoted good aging and social reintegration by creating a culturally-accepted place, nchi. Uchi refers to a place, such as the home, school, church or social club in which a person experiences a feeling of security, intimacy, sharing, engagement and collaboration.
