UP & Moving has partnered with Upper Great Lakes Houghton Family Health Center (UGLFHC) to provide a FREE physical activity resource for patients that are referred through participating primary care providers.

To get started, please click the following link: Physical Activity Referral Form

Here is what you should expect your consult to look like:

After our team has received and reviewed your referral form, we will arrange a time to meet 1-on-1 (via in person, phone, Zoom). From here, we will work together to develop a personalized plan to meet your own physical activity and lifestyle goals.

We will discuss topics such as:

  1. Why do you want to change your behavior?

  2. What is your willingness to change your behavior? 

  3. What are personal barriers to changing your behavior? How can we work to help overcome them?

  • How much time do you have to dedicate towards physical activity?

  • How much experience do you have with fitness?

  • What are your hobbies? What are activities that you love to do that involve movement?

We will work together to set short-term and long-term goals for yourself, as well as daily objectives that help you stay on track.

After our initial consult, we will establish how often you would like to check in with us, whether that is weekly, biweekly, monthly etc.
