It’s easy to lose site of the fact that, as a business, people are your greatest investment. In these days of staff cutbacks, limited budgets and reduced profitability, it is worth acknowledging that you need your team to keep the business going. You also need your team to be positive, de-stressed and motivated. But how do you do that when money is tight and time is even tighter?

Consider investing in a mobile massage therapy session. It does not cost a fortune, takes up very little time as treatments can be done while staff are at their desks, and there is no traveling involved as the massage therapists come to your premises.

Hands On Treatment can send 4 therapists to your offices for 2 hours to treat your staff at their desks to a seated neck and shoulder massage, using no oils. The treatment is excellent for staff motivation and stress management, and definitely makes your team feel valued. Treatments can range from 5 to 30 minutes each and depend on the amount of team members and your budget.

Corporate Massages, designed to fit into the business activities of the company, should be an integral part of this approach.

“Some of our clients have a standing arrangement whereby we go to their facilities twice and four times a month” says Martina Laurie, CEO of Hands On Treatment, an innovative wellness company. “An example is a multi-national company where we go to both their corporate offices and the factory every month.  The benefits of Corporate Massages are equally real for white and blue collar workers. Ultimately, companies use Corporate Massages to enhance staff motivation and increase staff productivity.”

“The best way to deploy Corporate Massages,” Laurie went on “is to have the therapists move from workstation to workstation.  They are trained to move unobtrusively in the background and we do not use oils or creams.  That way, there’s no disruption to the running of the office or the factory and all employees get an opportunity.  Some employees sit back for the Neck & Shoulder massage while others just keep on working – no-one refuses a massage!”

Corporate Massages are also used for events, such as wellness days, golf days and even baby and bridal showers.  Again the best way is to have the therapists move between the people, but sometimes it is better to set up a massage station where people can go for their massages.  Hands On Treatment also provide one, two and three hour mobile pamper services.

Corporate massages are also an ideal addition to your company conference or team-building event. Have a break, have a massage! Your team will thank you for it.
