Exercise counseling

The municipality of Kihniö has a sports counselor who helps residents with matters related to overall well-being. Sports counseling is a free service aimed at all residents.

You can contact a physical activity counselor yourself, whose contact information you can find below. A suitable course of action will be agreed with the physical activity counselor for each client. You can also be referred to physical activity counseling from well-being and health services, such as healthcare or local associations and companies. 

If necessary, the meeting will be arranged in a barrier-free space. 

A physical activity counselor helps with issues related to exercise, nutrition, sleep and recovery. Physical activity counseling is aimed at anyone who needs help with the above-mentioned issues or who is not moving enough for their health. You can also talk to a physical activity counselor if you need help, for example, finding a form of exercise you enjoy.

You can also participate in the counseling as a family, in which case family exercise counseling is provided both to the family as a whole and to each person individually. Together with the exercise counselor, you will consider how, for example, you can add exercise to your family's everyday life in ways that are meaningful to you or how you can change your eating habits in a direction that serves you better with little effort. 

The physical education counselor also guides free exercise groups. You can find more information about the groups below.
