Timo Hänninen is a specialist in sports and exercise medicine and a Doctor of Medical Science, with over 15 years of experience in lifestyle counseling and integrating physical activity into weight management.

Ensuring appropriate treatments and medications and minimizing overload risks associated with changes in training load are the foundation for using exercise safely in weight management.

During your appointment, Timo will help you identify your current habits; together, you will find the most suitable targets for change and decide on the most feasible path toward your goal.

Whether you are starting exercise to support your well-being, unsure of the optimal way to increase physical activity due to health issues, or facing weight management challenges after an athletic career, you can count on Timo as a knowledgeable specialist to help you.
