Corporate Wellness is the practice of coordinating with a massage therapist to offer massage services to employees. Companies can arrange for a massage therapist to come to the office weekly, monthly or quarterly. Often these events are held in dim, quiet rooms where employees can relax.

Corporate Wellness therapy gives employees so much more than a relaxing 15-minute pause during their lunch break (even though that is nice). Bringing professional massage therapy into the workplace has many benefits, from physical perks to increased productivity. In fact, corporate massage participants report significant stress relief, better sleep, reduced muscle tension, and decreased migraines. Offering employees massages in the office shows your commitment to their well-being and ultimately improves the organization as a whole.
Top 3 Benefits of Corporate Wellness
Here are some specific corporate wellness benefits:
1.) Stress Management
Stress isn’t entirely avoidable, but there are simple ways to keep it in check. Left unmanaged, stress can easily become employees’ dominant emotion, overpowering any positivity inside and outside of the workplace. Stress has a hugely negative effect on the workplace, too. In a study by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), 29% of people said they felt quite a bit or extremely stressed at work. And with numbers rising, employers have a responsibility to help their teams manage that stress.
That’s where corporate massage comes in.
Many forward-thinking companies have set up programs for workers to receive quick massages during the workday. Chair massages help reduce stress by physically removing built-up tension. In just a few minutes, a chair massage promotes better circulation and muscle stimulation, undoing the results of sitting at a desk or standing for hours at a time. These effects can counteract fatigue, promote positivity, and leave employees feeling refreshed and inspired. Regular massages help manage stress in the long-term, and employees are the first to tell you how welcome that help is.
2.) Increase Productivity
Happy employees, happy business! Introducing a corporate wellness program makes can increase positivity and have a huge impact on work performance. When you set up a wellness program, you’re building a structured outlet for stress and tension that gives employees a chance to take their productivity into their own hands.
Productivity can be limited by quite a few stress-related factors:
• Feeling overwhelmed or anxious
• Inability to stay focused
• Stressful environment
Massage therapy, yoga, mindfulness meditation, and fitness classes can help with all of the above. Corporate Wellness therapy in particular has been proven to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation even after the session ends. When employees feel less overwhelmed and more focused, you’ll see a boost in productivity from the bottom up. That type of physical activity can also unite team members, boost their mood, and help them focus on the positive aspects of their job and the people around them. After all, a happy business means a happy culture, too.
3.) Easier Hiring & Retention
Corporate Wellness also has perks at the organizational level. When speaking to a potential new hire, imagine the spark in their eye when a recruiter brings up a corporate wellness or fitness program! It’s a major amenity that modern companies are adding to their workplaces every day, changing the corporate culture game.
Offering a wellness program helps position a company as one that invests in employee well-being and morale. Our clients have noted greater employee retention too, as it helps reduce stress and boost efficiency and overall job satisfaction.
What Is It And Why Is It Good for Your Company
No one can deny the fact that people these days are spending more and more time in their offices/workplaces, working longer hours and not doing enough physical activity. Because of this, employees are constantly under a lot of stress, which is now believed to be one of the major causes of back pain, headaches, eye strain, high blood pressure, neck pain, lower back pain, ulcers, and even diabetes. Emotionally, work-related stress is linked with depression, anxiety, irritability, anger, and lack of concentration. From the employers’ point of view, work-related stress is a recipe for poor work environment, lack of focus/concentration, high turnover rates, and more sick leave ultimately leading to low productivity and more burden on employee healthcare costs.
Introducing corporate wellness into the workplace is one way of keeping your employees/workforce stress-free, happy and relaxed during working hours. Employees who participate in regular corporate wellness sessions are likely to be more productive, demonstrate higher engagement with their work and co-workers, and contribute positively to the workplace. It is a win-win situation for both the employees as well as employers.
