Working Through Massage Therapy
A tired, stressed, sick, absent and unhappy employee is present at work, but the results are not.
Replacing him is a reactive solution because if you don’t change something in your management, won’t the person who replaces him become like that same employee?
Massage therapy helps improve productivity, performance and mental functions in the workplace.
Regular on-site treatment helps reduce back, neck and shoulder pain, sick leave, and difficult days.
Furthermore, it reduces staff turnover, improves your company’s reputation, and helps attract new, more competent employees.
Chair massages can be used to benefit both your company and the well-being of your employees.
Here are seven benefits of massage therapy in the workplace
1. Improves performance and productivity by up to 50
Over 20% of North Americans suffer from fatigue, and one in four suffers from work-related stress. When workers suffer, the quality and performance of their jobs suffer. Employees work long hours and are less and less productive.
A fifteen-minute chair massage session has been shown to increase the speed and accuracy of mathematical calculations by up to 50%. Massage has improved mental function, concentration, creativity and working relationships.
2. Reduces sick leave and absenteeism
Stress at work accounts for over 75% of sick leave. Work days are lost due to stress, costing companies billions of dollars.
Massage therapy helps to improve well-being, reduce stress and lower staff absenteeism.
The second most common cause of absenteeism is muscular and skeletal problems. They also add up to millions of lost working days every year.
A regular 15-minute relaxing massage can relieve these pains, mainly concentrated in the back, head, neck and shoulders.
Massage improves blood flow, relieves muscle tension and eye strain, and improves musculoskeletal structure and function.
3. Reduces staff turnover
High staff turnover is partly the result of work-related stress, illness and injury.
It costs a company between $15,000 and $125,000 to replace a productive employee. A regular 15-minute on-site massage is a beautiful alternative for a minimal investment.
Many of our customers have noticed the significant benefits of such an investment, which is one reason they continue to trust us.
4. Enhances your reputation and attracts excellent potential employees
When you offer massages to your employees, it helps you attract high-calibre potential employees.
Employees see a clear link between responsible companies that understand the positive impact on their well-being. This responsible practice can help attract a talented and diverse workforce.
Professional massage in the workplace is a responsible business practice.
5. Provides incentives, improved staff morale and motivation
When employees are asked about receiving on-site massages, they generally respond positively.
The greatest proof of an employer’s words about how valuable they are to employees is the well-being of employees through concrete actions.
Massage therapy in the workplace demonstrates this appreciation and appreciation. Employees are grateful and motivated to perform more without asking for anything.
6. Prevents work-related injuries and accidents
Illnesses, injuries and accidents linked to stress and postures at work are now a significant concern for health and safety organizations in Canada.
In an increasingly responsible and regulated culture, companies that provide their employees with services that can help them combat the effects of stress, ill health and accidents are much more valued in society than those who fail to meet their health and safety obligations in the workplace.
By complying with the rules and laws and being proactive in providing massages and preventive exercises for their employees, these companies are already ahead of the competition.
7. Save money by investing
With an employee wellness approach, companies save millions of dollars through sickness absence, costly and questionable quality of work, and profit-wiping employee turnover.
What’s more, an employee in an unhappy frame of mind isn’t as motivated to do their job and is more likely to be indifferent, not to mention conflictual working relationships.
A tired, stressed, sick, absent and unhappy employee is present at work, but the results are not.
Replacing him is a reactive solution, but won’t the person who replaces him become like him if you don’t change something in your management?
What can I offer my employees to avoid this and thus contribute to significant results for the company?
Choose massage therapists who are attentive to your situation.
If you want a unique massage to relax or free yourself from pain, discomfort, or suffering, isn’t it wise and sensible to turn to massage therapists who know what they are doing? Live?
