On Site Chair Massage

On Site Chair Massage was developed specifically for the office.  It is a safe, effective and relaxing way to relieve muscular aches and pains associated with workplace activities like sitting, typing and texting.   Participants sit fully clothed in a specially designed chair that allows the Massage Therapist to focus on the areas of the body most at risk for overuse injuries: neck, shoulders, arms, wrists and hands.  Sessions range in length from 15 to 30 minutes.

The benefits of Chair Massage are numerous and meant to be experienced!  If you are of the mind that massage therapy is a luxury, especially while working, I ask you to think again.  In addition to just simply feeling good, receiving regular Chair Massage can:

​

  • Aid in the prevention and recovery of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)

  • Increase the circulation of blood and the Lymphatic system

  • Ease muscular aches and pains associated with sitting

  • Relieve physical and emotional tension

  • Reduce muscular and mental fatigue 

  • Boost one’s immune system and resistance to illness

  • Lower blood pressure

  • Improve thinking and awareness

  • Increase energy and stamina

  • Improve mood

I have been providing On Site Chair Massage for over twenty-five years.  During this time, I have helped many people find relief from the unique physical and emotional demands of working in today’s fast-paced technological world. 

 

Why Chair Massage?

In today’s ever shifting financial climate, it may seem strange to commit your resources to regular Chair Massage for your staff.  At a time when cutting back expenses is the common practice, I am asking you to consider offering regular On Site Chair Massage as an investment into your employees well-being, and by extension, into the health of your company. 

 

On Site Chair Massage does much more than just relieve physical and mental tension.  It can actually have a positive effect on your whole team.  Whether you provide Chair Massage regularly, during “crunch” times or as an annual Employee Appreciation Gift, On Site Chair Massage makes a positive difference in productivity and team building.

 

In addition to boosting office morale, On Site Chair Massage helps prevent workplace injuries like Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Double Crush Syndrome and other upper body Repetitive Strain Injuries.  Many studies have shown that reducing work place injury lowers absenteeism, improves team moral and helps to create a more cohesive workplace culture. 

 

Even a brief Chair Massage visit can significantly improve one’s problem solving abilities.  A recent study in American Psychologist gave one group of workers a 15 minute rest, and another, a 15 minute massage. The group that received the massage performed significantly better on complicated tasks like math problems.  The study also found that massage improves creative thinking and relieves fatigue.  The group found that the benefits of massage are much better and longer lasting than a cup of coffee!
