How does on-site chair massage work?

On-site chair massage does not require a private room. It can be done in any small space like the corner of a conference room or an office. The therapist uses a special chair designed specifically for on-site massage. No oils or creams are used. The recipient is seated and fully clothed. Massage techniques which can be given through clothing are used, and the session focuses on the upper body, head, neck, shoulders, back and arms. All techniques have been adapted to address conditions specific to the modern workplace, helping to reduce the effects of stress and relief of muscle aches and pain. Sessions usually last 10-20 minutes (the length of a typical work break).

It's cost effective!

On-site chair massage is very affordable. It is shorter than a regular massage and costs less.

• There is no up front investment in equipment and facilities.
• You pay only for employees who use it.
• Employees can pay part or all of the cost.
• Massages can take place on break time so no work time is lost.
• The program runs itself.

On-site massage can help

Some of the most costly health problems in the workplace include the high level of stress experienced by employees, physical problems associated with sitting at workstations for a long period of time and repetitive use syndrome. The cost of these health problems to employers is lower productivity, lost work days, worker's compensation claims and other healthcare expenses. On-site massage works because it:

• Reduces muscle tension and the pain it causes.
• Calms the nervous system and increases circulation, which boosts energy and alertness.
• Helps employees identify and release tension on their own before it becomes a problem.
• Provides a complete change of pace so the body and mind can relax and rejuvenate.
