Employee Benefits
Relieves Stress
Stress relief is a key to achieving a healthier lifestyle. Even a single massage session can significantly lower heart rate, cortisol, and insulin levels – all of which help reduce daily stress.
Encourages Relaxation
Relax, Reset, Repeat. Massage has been shown to help the body enter a relaxing rest-and-recovery mode: an effect that lingers long after the massage is over. The lasting effects of massage can range from promoting relaxed states of mental alertness to enhancing our capacity for calm and creative thinking.
Relieves Headaches
Say good-bye to headaches. Massage has been shown to be effective against a number of types of headaches. Tension headaches are a no-brainer, but it also helps with TMJ, migraines, and increases people’s ability to function despite a headache even if it did not alleviate it completely.
Overcome Insomnia
People who get regular messages have been shown to sleep better. Part of overcoming insomnia and other sleep disorders is breaking the cycle or habit of the body. Massage for insomnia can help to do this by relaxing the tight muscles and re-establishing circulation to these areas allowing the body’s systems to return to normal. Massage is a natural, healthy, and substance-free choice way to help people that have insomnia.
Improves Posture
Whether we are driving, working at a desk, or even just standing still, poor posture can contribute to a number of physical aches and pains. Unlike other bad habits, poor posture can be relaxing to correct. Massage helps reinforce healthy and natural movements, which can get your posture back on track.
Company Benefits
Increase Accuracy, Problem Solving And Creative Thinking
In everyday work, employees must feel healthy and supported in order to employ critical thinking to better serve customers, develop better products, and continuously improve themselves within an ever-changing global economy.
Saves Your Company Money By Increase Productivity And Motivation Through Energised And Happy Staff
Corporate perks such as therapeutic massage are shown to empower workers and positively affect the success of the business. And we know that employee attitudes correlate strongly with higher profits.
Reduce Employee Turnover
This saves your company money by attracting and retaining key talent whilst boosting morale. It costs between USD12,000 and USD100,000 to replace a member of staff, making regular on-site massage a very attractive alternative for minimal investment.
Reduce Sick Time And Absenteeism
This saves your company money by reducing sick leave and absenteeism as well as reducing the costs associated with stress-related illness and repetitive strain claims. So even if you feel that your workforce is functioning perfectly well at the moment with little absenteeism, you may want to consider workplace massage as a preventative measure in order to help keep your workers fit and healthy and employee moral buoyant.
Creates An Atmosphere Of Camaraderie, Trust, And Loyalty
This will reinforce the message to your employees that you value their health and wellbeing. Loyalty is earned helping your employees to be successful. Also, when trust prevails, team members are more willing to go through a difficult process and feel supported through ups and downs.
