:: Massage Therapy
Massage is the use of natural touch and involves structured physical manipulations of soft body tissue and muscles for therapeutic purposes. In its various forms, massage can be used to stimulate or relax and has been used throughout history for both its physical and psychological benefits. Seated or Workplace Massage
Why have a seated massage treatment? Each individual session takes only 20 minutes and is carried out through clothing. No worries about being sensitive to massage oil or cream and no need to undress. Seated massage is a really quick and satisfying way to unwind after a stressful day. This massage method is available for individuals. There is however, an increasing obligation to the health of employees and their well being. By insuring access to health and fitness opportunities, an employer can reap the benefits of staff that then feel respected and well cared for. Spending lots of time standing, seated, in a car, at a desk or using a PC can cause the body to be under a lot of physical stress, even if the seating is to the recommended guidelines and regular breaks are achieved. Our bodies are not designed to stand or be seated all the time and we rarely maintain an ideal posture.
Individuals can feel relief from stress and postural stiffness through seated massage and tension release in a pleasant environment. Less headaches and backache could be the longer-term results. Employers - By decreasing physical stress levels, through regular relaxation of muscles in the back and shoulders especially, along with breaks from the workplace/station, it is felt that productivity can improve, concentration levels can increase, psychological stress and overall, sickness rates can reduce. Why not contact me to discuss the possibilities of workplace, seated massage? I would visit you and give you a demonstration of the type of massage available. I would bring all the equipment I need with me but a suitable, quiet place/room for the treatments would need to be available for the duration of each treatment session on-site. Once you have sampled the experience of seated massage, we could discuss the options available for enabling your staff to have treatments. Each individual session takes 20 minutes and is carried out through clothing. They can usually be done during lunch breaks. Some companies are able to book a regular afternoon/morning session of 2-3 hours, each month, with the therapist and this enables a lot of treatments to be carried out more economically. Treatments could be paid for wholly by the staff members or by the employer or are often made available to staff, at a discounted rate (i.e. some paid for by employer) to encourage participation. The workplace is not the only way to enjoy seated massage. Exhibitions, shops and show grounds are amongst other possible locations. In fact, seated massage can take place anywhere that a quiet zone can be created. Please note that there is a minimum charge for seated massage sessions.
