CORPORATE WELLNESS
As an employer you know your employees are your greatest asset, as well as your most solid investment. In today’s dog-eat-dog environment, businesses are working harder than ever to stay competitive. This hard work often leads to stability and prosperity for the company - but this is not all it can lead to! Work-related stress, illness and injury are major concerns for companies that are serious about maintaining productivity and profitability to create the best bottom line possible.
Studies show that companies lose millions of dollars in health care costs because their employees are stressed out - creating an environment for injury and illness. With the rising cost of health care, these numbers are consistently getting higher. Furthermore, companies lose valuable productivity when employees are off for health-related reasons. According to the National Health Institute, pain-related health problems rank consistently near the top of the list as reasons for worker absence. What most employers don’t always realize is an affordable solution exists to help relieve stress and prevent work-related injury and illness - therapeutic massage. Whether you have 10 employees, or 10,000 employees, adding therapeutic massage that includes on-site chair massage to your existing wellness program can help ensure sustained workplace productivity while maintaining the competitive edge of your workforce.
The fact is therapeutic massage reduces muscle tension, stress and pain caused by job duties such as: sitting at a desk performing tedious computer work, craning a neck to balance a phone handset while multi-tasking or simply standing for excessive periods while doing any job. Other benefits of therapeutic massage include increasing the range of motion in your employees by increasing circulation and endorphins that fight pain and muscle tension. This directly assists in reducing workplace illness and injury related absences while giving your employees a renewed sense of energy.
Finally, therapeutic massage helps increase morale and loyalty. With ever-increasing cost of living standards, your employees are often struggling just to maintain their current lifestyle. Knowing their employer is committed to assisting them with reducing the stress and tension associated with their professional and personal lives is sure to create increased morale and loyalty to your company.
BodyWork works with small and large companies to design a massage program to best meet their needs. Whether you want to put together a consistent program to boost morale and productivity, show appreciation to a team or create a special bonus, massage therapy is a great reward!
