Massage Therapy & Chair Massage
Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy helps to reduce stress, relieve pain and increase the
body's own natural ability to heal. Massage is the manipulation of soft
tissue to increase circulation and lymph flow, decrease stress and
muscle tension, and produce an overall feeling of well-being in the
body. Massage can be used for different purposes. Some people choose to
use massage to decrease stress and relax; others are rehabilitating from
injury or illness, or are in chronic pain. No matter the reason the
effect is the same.

Chair Massage
What is chair massage?
A chair massage is a massage routine given to a fully clothed
employee in a specially designed chair with comfortable support for the
face, arms, legs, and torso. The chair allows the professional massage
practitioner to easily give a relaxing, yet energizing routine to the
neck, head, shoulders, back, arms, and hands. In only 10-20 minutes, a
chair massage can break the cycle of tension and increase a feeling of
physical relaxation and mental renewal.
How chair massage can help
Chair massage helps employees cope better with everything from
deadline pressures to environmental factors such as background noise.
Massage has been shown to help reduce accumulated muscle tension, muscle
stiffness, mental fatigue, back and neck pain, anxiety, depression and
fatigue. Massage quiets the nervous system, improves energy levels and
mental clarity, and helps prevent overuse syndromes such as tendonitis,
carpal tunnel syndrome and headaches.
Because chair massage guarantees the immediate result of decreased
mental and physical tension, it is always a popular program. And if the
stress relief and increased body awareness from regular chair massage
helps a single employee avoid a job related injury, a massage program
could pay for itself in future medical costs avoided.
Beat workplace stress
Employers are increasingly taking steps to prevent stress overload
and promote morale and productivity. Chair massage is one step that can
lower health care costs while it increases job satisfaction. In a
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine report (1998), the
authors stated, "Health care expenditures are nearly 50% greater for
workers who report high levels of stress." Equally as telling, the St.
Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Co. reported in 1992 that "problems at
work are more strongly associated with health complaints than any other
life stressor-more so than even financial problems or family problems."
Many stress-induced symptoms and conditions are preventable. Chair
massage is very effective in helping people cope with both physical and
emotional stress.
