We surveyed within the city of Turku (Åbo) located in southwest part of the Scandinavian nation Finland, to reveal how the motivation levels & thirty three (33) other criterion encompassing technology awareness, adoption and usage attitudes are promoting healthcare. We found tracking devices like Pedometer provide an impeccable value in tracking fitness routines, sustained encouragement to reap the long term benefits of exercising and a healthy lifestyle. Our research aim is to determine key factors responsible for achieving consistency & growth towards the recommended PA levels within focus groups & individuals and to record the user experiences about healthcare technology products & services.
