From Tampere retiree Jukka Liimolan his back started to annoy over the weekend. When the ailment only seemed to get worse, he walked in through the door of Tipotie Health Center on Wednesday to make an appointment. On Thursday morning, Liimola was already sitting as a physiotherapist Jaana Hietanen at the reception. Liimola received time for physiotherapy directly without a doctor’s referral.
