Relieve Stress:
We all know the down side of stress shown by frequent sick days and low productivity. Massage has proved to lower blood pressure and increase circulation and it releases endorphins, the feel good hormones. Your staff will be happy.
Improve Employee Morale:
Employees receiving a 15 minute massage paid for by you will only feel appreciated and you'll get their loyalty in return. If you have your doubts visit our "Raving Fans" page.
Increased Productivity:
University of Miami School of Medicine's Touch Research Institute studied job stress and mental functioning (Health, Oct. 1995, Katherine Griffin). One group was given 20 minute seated massages twice a week; the control group was instructed to do isometric exercises for relaxation. The massage group showed less anxiety and lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol. "What's more, the massaged group, despite being physically relaxed, was more alert after the massage than before. Those who got massages were able to do math problems in half the time and with half as many errors as the control group."
Massage also improves creative thinking and relieves fatigue. It's better than a cup of coffee!
In addition, by lowering stress, massage helps eliminate absenteeism, making your team more competitive. Employees look forward to their weekly massage some say they may have called in sick due to heavy workloads but instead show up on "Massage Fridays". "It helps me perform better." Says one employee at Regent Entertainment.
