Corporate Training

Research shows that workplace health programs result in a 25% decrease in sick leave absenteeism and a 41% decrease in workers compensation costs.

Companies who invest in employee well-being programs also experience a $5.81 of savings for every $1 invested. Further research indicates that employees who spend 2.5 hours per week exercising during work hours attain the same or higher productivity levels than their less physically active colleagues.

There is increasing recognition that sedentary time in office-based workplaces also needs to be considered as a potential adverse health risk and is a separate consideration to the lack of physical activity outside work hours.

The workplace is recognised as a priority setting for health promotion by the World Health Organization and the Australian Government.

In line with this research I offer simple and effective solutions to workplace sedentarism, and posture and stress related complaints through series of interventions, including:

  1. Lunch and Learn - short 30-45 minutes presentation on selected topic. Suggested initial topics are basics of healthy sitting, standing and standing.
  2. Workplace workshops - 45-60 minutes in detailed presentation and corrective exercise on specific topics (such as hands and wrist pain, neck alignment or better digestion at the workplace).
  3. Longer 2-3 hours workshops.
  4. Newsletter covering posture, alignment and movement topics (eg. What you need to know before getting a standing desk; How to make office time more dynamic and how that helps us focus; Better digestion using a chair; Breathing efficiency for better core function, focus and digestion; Hands and wrists care at work and elsewhere; etc).

Please contact Reclaim Your Body Guide for a quote and discussion on how I can best help your employees be healthier and more productive.

Testimonials

I went to Elena's workshop called "movement teachbox" back in 2018, which provided instruction on how to work in an office. I thought I knew how to work in an office environment but I was so wrong. I realised that both myself and my team are working at desks and computers 60 hours a week without the correct sitting posture.

By adopting Elena's approach to working in the office, I have adopted some simple structural change to our office setup, to prevent my team from damaging their bodies while sitting in the office. These include better sitting and bolstering and posture alignment stretches.

I was very impressed with Elena's understanding of the human body and how simple but effective techniques can reduce or eliminate back pain from office setting.
