Our Popular Corporate Chair
Many of the benefits of chair massage for your employees are similar to the benefits of getting a full body massage at a spa but in the comfort and convenience of your workplace. Onsite massage eliminates the need to travel to a massage clinic or spa and is a fraction of the cost. Plus chair massage makes massage therapy accessible to those within your organization who are uncomfortable getting undressed and would otherwise never experience massage without it.

Benefits of Corporate Chair Massage for the Employees.

1. Reduces stress:
A whopping 85% stress reduction! Stress levels measured before and after each massage found one of the biggest benefits of seated massage therapy to be a seriously effective office stress reliever.
2. Decreases anxiety and depression:
One of the big benefits of office massages is that massage reduces anxiety by 26% and depression scores also improve by 28% after the massage.

Back pain is literally cut in half with regular corporate chair massages. A decrease of 48% decrease was seen in the studies on back pain and tension.

Over multiple studies, the average improvement in sleep quality was 28%. That includes increased duration as well as fewer sleep disturbances.
5. Relieves headaches:
Headaches are decreased by an average of 48% in duration and intensity with regular onsite massages.
6. Lowers blood pressure:
Across multiple studies, there was an average of a 6% drop in blood pressure, which may not sound like a lot. But that’s literally the difference between hypertensive blood pressure and a normal one, and that’s without any medication at all! Plus these studies showed that there was a lasting effect and the benefits of corporate massage programs showed very clearly as the massage group continued to have a lower blood pressure than the control groups for weeks after treatment stopped.
7. Prevents repetitive strain injuries:
On employees doing repetitive movements, weekly chair massage reduces the occurrence of repetitive stress injuries by 37%.
8. Increases immune function:

9. Treats carpal tunnel and tendonitis:
One of the benefits of chair massage programs is that people with carpal tunnel and tendonitis issues see a decrease in pain and discomfort by 14%.
10. Increases focus, energy, and mental clarity:
After chair massages, employees in two studies show increased alertness, speed, and accuracy on math computations following treatment.
These numbers are all from 15-20 minute chair massages at work!
1. Increase employee productivity:
Employees simply give more to organizations that take good care of them. And that extra alertness, focus, and mental clarity doesn’t hurt either. Corporate massage therapy contributes to alleviating employee headaches, back pain, and anxiety. This allows them to give all their focus to their jobs.
2. Attract top talent:
In our competitive marketplace, it pays to have an ace up your sleeve. There are lots of fun and creative perks to help draw top talent into your organization, and massage is at the top of the list.
3. Increase employee retention:
In addition to attracting top talent, that talent will stick around when they feel appreciated. After you’ve worked hard to hire and train some new talent in your organization, keep them. One of the benefits of seated massage programs is that you won’t see that investment walking over to your competitor’s office.
4. Decrease Worker’s Compensation claims:
This goes back to the employee benefits of treating carpal tunnel and tendonitis and preventing repetitive stress injuries. Since those issues are being effectively addressed, the number of Worker’ compensation claims goes down.
5. Reduce Health Care Costs:
In a recent study on the effects of corporate massage on health care costs, employees experiencing low back pain that received chair massage spent 31% less on doctor’s visits, and prescription medication. Plus, as shown in the employee benefits section, some of the most expensive health care conditions dramatically improve with regular onsite chair massage, thereby reducing costs as an employer as well.
