Office Chair Massage

    Reducing stress and increasing energy levels among employees is one reason companies large and small are implementing chair massage programs.  It is also helpful in relieving back, neck, shoulder, arm, and hand tension that contribute to repetitive stress injuries.
    
     According to the Occupational Health and Safety News and the National Council on Compensation Insurance:

• Stress accounts for $26 billion in medical and disability payments and $95 billion in productivity loss

• Over 50% of lost work days are stress related which keeps about 1 million people per day from attending work

• Stress causes one third of American workers to seriously consider quitting

• 85% of employee accidents are stress related

     Although those numbers are hard to ignore, making time to relieve stress in the workplace may be difficult.  Chair massage can help!

• Research indicates that a 15-minute chair massage results in decreased job stress, increased alertness, and increased speed and accuracy on math computations

• Office workers massaged regularly were more alert, performed better and were less stressed than those who weren't massaged
