Welcome to the Wellbeing Days by Uniarts Helsinki 17-18 September
The Uniarts Helsinki Wellbeing Days will be organised in the Agora Hall on 17 September and at the Tori courtyard in Kookos on 18 September, at 11–14 on both days.
Students and staff alike have the opportunity to learn more about health, exercise and other wellbeing services offered by the university and its partners. Everyone is welcome to come and chat, ask questions and at some stands, also try out services, play games and get tested on their health.
Earplug fittings at the Helsinki Music Centre and Kookos
If you are exposed to loud noises in your music-related studies or work, you can sign up for an earplug fitting taking place in Agora to get custom-made hearing protectors for yourself.

A representative from Orelo Oy, Joni Backman, will arrange the earplug fitting in

Costs
New Uniarts Helsinki students can get custom-moulded earplugs from the partner selected by the university, and in connection with a joint order, the university sponsors each purchase with 20 euros, making the student’s share of the costs 130 euros. Alternatively, first-year students can order standard earplugs (HiFi/”musician’s” earplugs) free of charge. After the first year of studies, students can purchase custom-moulded earplugs for the price of €150.
Employees whose exposure to noise from music is estimated to exceed the lower action value of 80 dB (A) laid down for daily noise exposure and who are covered by the occupational health care scheme can acquire personal custom-moulded hearing protection at the expense of the employer.
Gym consultation at Kookos
In connection with the event at Tori, we are also offering gym consultation and guidance in the basement gym in Kookos. Personal Trainer Stelios Katsaras from UniSport will be at the gym to answer your questions, whether they are about tips for training and reaching your gym goals, how to start gym training safely, what the correct and safe techniques are and of course about what training with a PT could be like.
