This trend shows no signs of slowing down, as employees continue to voice their concerns about the necessity for corporate wellness, but organisations can reap the benefits of doing so.
Encouraging wellness helps prevent work-related injuries, burnout, illnesses, and promote a positive work culture. Companies shouldn’t wait until their employees quit, but take action beforehand, as it could be costly to hire and retrain staff, impact the bottom line, as well as taking a devastating toll on company morale.
At Target Therapies, we understand that a happy and relaxed workforce is a productive workforce. That’s why we offer on-site chair massages 10-15 minute sessions delivered directly to the office or at an event (such as a wellness day). Incorporating a workplace wellness program is a way to surprise, motive and support your employees with health and wellness. Your staff will feel appreciated and valued.
Empower people so they can give their best at work
Your employees lead busy lives—juggling work and personal commitments. They often struggle to find time to improve their well-being outside of work. Having chair massages at work makes it convenient for your staff to get the self-care they need and deserve.
The massages are delivered to them at the office. It’s placed into your work culture and they would be delighted with your company for it. You would be surprised at what a difference a 10-15 minutes massage can make to your employees. It’s a thoughtful gesture and your team will appreciate this gift of wellness.
Chair massages give employees a mental boost, so your employees can stay refreshed throughout the day. Many research studies have also shown the benefits of massages in having a positive impact on employee health. Sitting at a desk for extended periods can lead to poor posture and chronic pain. Our chair massages can help alleviate these issues, leading to improved health and reduced sick days.
