A typical chair massage session
Picture by : Annik Mata Hari
The chair massage was created based on the need for intervention in the workplace to relieve employee muscle tension. It is portable and requires very little space. The ergonomic and highly comfortable chair was designed to give easy access to the tense areas in the neck, shoulders and back.
The massage is performed without oil, over clothing. It lasts from 15 to 45 minutes, as per a previous agreement, and is preceded by a brief health questionnaire intended to help the therapist identify the specific needs of the person being massaged and tailor each session accordingly. Relaxation, release of toxins and a sense of renewed vitality are the main effects of a chair massage. The last step helps recipients feel ready and able to pursue their workday.

How we can help
The issue in today’s workplace is serious. We certainly cannot claim to eliminate the problems at the source. However, we can definitely help you establish a program that will reduce many symptoms related to the issue at hand. Through massage, yoga and other prevention methods, Firme en Forme can raise awareness among employees about the importance of taking control of their health.
Once this occurs, employees generally begin to use the prevention methods outside the workplace, integrating them into their everyday lives. So thanks to their employer’s initiative, employees will discover a discipline that will launch the start of a change towards greater wellness. In short, the company will obtain an interesting return on its investments in the short, medium and long term.
