Who wouldn’t like the idea of a massage at work?

Workplace massage is a highly popular employee perk that also has benefits for businesses in terms of employee engagement, health and wellbeing, and generally making your employees feel cared for.

Who Is It For?

Workplace massage is ideal for employees of all ages and mobilities. Here are some specific groups that can benefit:

Office Workers

Sat at a computer all day, employees often experience restrictive movement or lack of exercise during the day, resulting in muscle tension and stiffness in the back, neck, shoulders, arms, and hands. The massage provides welcome relief, helping to alleviate these common issues.

Retail Workers and Educators

Those on their feet all day, such as retail workers and teachers/lecturers, can suffer from tiredness and aching, painful muscles. The chance to take the weight off their feet and just switch off and relax is hugely beneficial.

Construction and Manufacturing Workers

Heavy lifting, driving machinery, or repetitive actions take their toll on the body. Having a regular massage at work helps keep those problems under control, providing much-needed relief and maintenance.

Healthcare and Other High-Stress Professions

NHS staff and other professionals in stressful roles, which are draining on both physical and mental health, can greatly benefit from workplace massage. The connection between emotions and how they affect our bodies is well documented. Massage permits you to stop, close your eyes, and succumb to 15 minutes of pure relaxation.

Personalised to Your Needs

The workplace massage is adapted to suit each individual. It can be firm and relaxing, invigorating, deeper and stronger, or a calming Indian head massage. It is tailored to what you need and incorporates stretching to encourage you to get your body moving.

Convenience and Accessibility

The massage is carried out over clothing, and no oils are used, making it ideal for workplaces in all sectors. All therapists are qualified in the treatments they deliver and provide after-care advice so the benefits of the massage continue between appointments.

In summary, workplace massage is a versatile and effective way to enhance employee wellbeing, reduce stress, and improve overall work satisfaction. It is a thoughtful and practical perk that demonstrates a company’s commitment to the health and happiness of its workforce.

What are the benefits of workplace massage?

In today’s fast-paced and demanding work environment, the wellbeing of employees is paramount to maintaining a productive and positive atmosphere. One effective way to promote employee health and satisfaction is through the provision of workplace massages. This practice has gained popularity due to its numerous physical and mental benefits, which contribute to a harmonious and efficient workplace.

Creating a Positive Atmosphere

First and foremost, workplace massage creates a great atmosphere. There is a palpable ‘buzz’ in the room, filled with anticipation of having a wonderful massage. This anticipation alone can uplift the mood and create a sense of excitement and camaraderie among employees. It is difficult to feel down and stressed when those endorphins, or ‘happy hormones’, are released. The infusion of positivity is infectious, spreading a sense of wellbeing throughout the office.

Physical Benefits

Preventing Muscular Problems

One of the primary physical benefits of workplace massage is its ability to keep on top of muscular problems such as tightness and pain before they develop into more serious issues. Regular massages can prevent musculoskeletal problems that may lead to days off work, ensuring employees remain healthy and capable of performing their duties effectively.

Increasing Blood Flow

Another significant physical advantage is the increased flow of oxygenated blood, which relieves the agony of aches and pains often aggravated by repetitive strain and posture-related issues. This enhanced circulation can alleviate discomfort and reduce the risk of chronic pain conditions, contributing to overall better physical health.

The Power of Touch

The power of touch in promoting relaxation and calm is immense. A massage can help employees switch off from work-related stress, providing them with a much-needed respite that rejuvenates both body and mind. This relaxation can lead to improved focus and productivity when employees return to their tasks.

Reasons to Offer Workplace Massage

Alleviating Burden

Offering workplace massage is beneficial for several reasons. In particular, if an employee is off sick with musculoskeletal problems, this creates an increased burden on others to cover sickness absence. This added pressure can lead to further repercussions, including stress and anxiety for those carrying extra workloads. Workplace massage can mitigate these issues by preventing the initial occurrence of musculoskeletal problems.

Employee Engagement and Appreciation

Happy, engaged employees who appreciate the organisation of massages, and the support of their physical and mental health, are more likely to be motivated and loyal. Recognising and rewarding hard work through such initiatives can significantly enhance employee morale.

Rewards and Recognition Schemes

Workplace massage is an excellent way to incorporate rewards and recognition schemes. By showing employees their hard work is recognised and rewarded, employers can increase motivation and promote positive mental health. These schemes can foster a culture of appreciation and dedication within the workplace.

Health and Wellbeing Policy

Integrating workplace massage as an integral part of a company’s health and wellbeing policy can yield long term benefits. Employees who know their hard work and efforts are recognised by their employer are more likely to go the extra mile, feel part of a team, and maintain a positive mental attitude towards their work. This leads to engaged and cohesive teams, reduced sickness related absence, and excellent customer service, keeping both staff and clients happy and loyal.

Employees who know their hard work and efforts are recognised by their employer will go that extra mile, feel part of a team, and be more inclined to have a positive mental attitude towards their work. This leads to engaged and cohesive teams, and less sickness-related absence, which in turn creates excellent customer service, keeping both staff and clients happy and loyal to you.
