Our work focuses on preventive healthcare, occupational physical therapy and promoting exercise
At Break Pro Finland, we specialize in improving workplace ergonomics and increasing physical activity in everyday life. As sedentary lifestyles are becoming increasingly common and physical activity is decreasing, reminding, motivating and guiding people to exercise is key to promoting wellbeing.
The story of Break Pro Finland began with the instruction of workplace exercise groups, the planning of individual training programs for employees and the development of workplace ergonomics and breaks. Today, our exercise-promoting Break Pro break exercise app is used by hundreds of companies around the world.
“During my over 20-year career as an occupational physical therapist, I have instructed and trained both office workers and physical labourers on proper ergonomics, better work techniques and physical activity. My work has shown me that the best way to promote clients’ health is to motivate them to exercise, rather than passively treating them. The Break Pro break exercise app motivates people to incorporate exercise and the right working methods into their daily routines, while increasing wellbeing and preventing musculoskeletal problems”, says Janne Rajakallio, the founder and CEO of Break Pro Finland.

Break Pro break exercise app was developed in response to our customers’ wishes for a user-friendly tool that would break the sedentary cycle and remind them to exercise during the day. The idea was also inspired by the personal experience of our Customer Manager Sini Rajakallio with a musculoskeletal condition and the advice that her orthopedist gave her.
“After surgery and a long recovery due to a herniated disc my orthopedist adviced me: ‘Never sit for more than an hour at a time and remember to do muscle strength exercises twice a week, and we'll not meet again.’ Shortly after that, we launched the first version of the Break Pro break exercise app”, says Sini.

We developed Break Pro, a high-quality, user-friendly break exercise app to prevent the health problems caused by sitting and inactivity. The app is trusted by both consumers and numerous businesses and organizations around the world.
Our mission is to create a society where people are healthy, have more energy and prioritize their health by also staying active while at work. We actively cooperate with the Finnish occupational health care system and are constantly developing the Break Pro app to better serve our customers’ needs. We offer Break Pro at a cost-effective price so that everyone has the opportunity to feel better.
