How On-Site
Chair Massage
Works
Typically, chair massage is set up on a regular weekly or bi-weekly basis
as an ongoing benefit to employees.
You may also offer on-site
massage therapy monthly or at special times of the year as an
incentive or
reward for project completion or outstanding work performance.
Human Resources/Wellness Department announces in their newsletter or an
insert with the employees' paycheck that chair massage will be available
on the specified day(s).
HR/Wellness has a sign-up sheet that is available to the employees
designating the day and location of the on-site massage.
Employees pick a time slot and provide their names, departments and phone
number extension.
The massage therapist is present on the specified day(s),
given a copy of the sign-up sheet and the employees show up for their
massages.

Case Study
'Mr Smith' is a 34-year-old man, suffering from stress. His company
provides On-Site Massage as a benefit to all employees. The company has
never implemented it as part of their stress management program but has
decided to test it for this case.
Smith has been with the company for 6 years and his productivity within
the company within the last four months has dwindled. This has been shown
in both his standards of work and the time it takes to complete tasks. The
last four projects were not completed until after the official deadline.
Smith has also been irritable and snappy towards other employees,
creating hostility within the workplace. The Company Doctor has prescribed
anti-depressants, which only appear to have slowed him down further, and
made him withdraw.
Smith has been a valuable asset to the company over the years, helping
to secure numerous multi-million pound contracts for the company. The
managing directors, thus, have chosen to try and rectify the situation, if
possible, rather than opting for dismissal of Mr Smith.
They have given a one-month deadline to see substantial changes,
otherwise extreme measures will have to be made.
Consultation
Smith begins with being reluctant to give too many details about his
general health and lifestyle. He sees being sent for treatment as a
threat, rather than a lifeline.
Smith is in denial that his problems are threatening his job and
security. Through completing the Indemnity Form provided it is revealed
that he is having frequent headaches and sleeping problems. It also
recognizes that he is not only on anti-depressants but also sleeping
pills, both in relatively high dosages.
No other recent illnesses, operations, fractures or general medical
details are noted. Discussion is turned to other factors that may affect
his general well-being, this uncovers that he has been having problems
with his wife recently, due to working long hours and not giving an
appropriate amount of time to both her and their children.
This is clearly a factor contributing to the hostility he is presenting,
especially as he feels he is working hard so that he can gain a good
salary to give his family a good standard of living, that he did not have
as a child.
Dietary factors are also included, where he describes drinking between
ten and fifteen cups of coffee per day! Again this high level of caffeine
will be contributing to his irritability. He also tends to eat
fast/convenience foods that he eats while he works, without taking any
proper breaks during the day.
His main meal is taken late at night, sometimes well after 10pm. This
not only will contribute to his sleeping problem but the lack of
nutrition, through a poor diet, will not help his general health.
As the consultation progresses he begins to relax and recognize that he
has problems that need to be addressed.
Additional information provided by the Occupational Health Department
are the results on his stress levels and blood pressure that are both
substantially higher than they should be. The tests will be repeated at
the end of the treatment program to help measure progress.
Treatment Plan
The company has put a timescale on rectifying the situation of only one
month. This is not a great deal of time considering that the initial
problems began over one year ago, with severe productivity and
irritability over the last four months.
Discussion is made with Smith into the course of action, this is done to
make sure he feels involved in 'taking charge' of his life, rather than
someone doing it for him, that is never as effective as people can become
dependant on the treatment.
The treatment plan chosen is to have two On-Site Massages per week, one
on Monday, the other on Thursday, for the duration of the month. Smith is
also going to try and drink more water, and if he needs to drink coffee he
is going to try a de-caffeinated blend.
He is also going to try and eat a more nutritious diet, possibly
bringing in fresh soup or salads from home for lunch. Proper breaks for
mealtimes and structure, same time each day, to them are also to be
implemented.
On-Site Massage Treatment
The first 20-minute On-Site Massage uncovers that Smith is holding a lot
of tension in his neck and shoulders. He also found it very difficult to
relax during the massage, talking constantly. During the stretches, where
breathing exercises are incorporated, he was reluctant to 'let go' and
take proper deep breaths.
Smith did feel slightly easier and less tense after the initial session,
especially in his shoulder area. Advice on posture was given as he has a
tendency to slouch, particularly while working on his PC. The company was
also providing assistance in looking at the ergonomics of his workstation.
On the day of the second session Smith arrived looking less pale and
withdrawn. He commented on his sleeping pattern improving slightly and
awaking more refreshed, rather than waking up feeling like he had been
'run over by a bus' as previously described.
During the massage he talked less and began to relax. His response to
the treatment improved, allowing the stretches to be done more
effectively, concentrating on breathing more. At the end of the session he
felt 'refreshed'.
Time management was discussed at the end of the session briefly, as
planning his time more efficiently will not only improve his job
productivity but also may help reduce his working hours which will help
his home life.
The following four treatments, over two weeks, changes were noticeably
seen. Smith appeared more cheerful and less like he was carrying the
weight of the world on his shoulders.
He stopped his medication by the end of the second week, as agreed by
his GP. His sleeping pattern is almost completely back to normal, and he
does not feel as 'down'.
He has taken control of his workload, and the planning of his day has
allowed him to finish the day between 6 and 7pm, instead of 9 or 10pm as
done previously. He also feels himself that his standard of work has begun
to improve.
Through reducing his caffeine and relaxing more through the On-Site
Massage, he not only feels, but is also noticeably, less irritable. He
also mentions plans to go out for a drink at the end of the week with
colleagues, something he has not done for over nine months. This shows his
communication skills returning, and the ability to socialize.
The seventh, penultimate, session shows Smith is no longer the pale,
highly-strung, withdrawn person initially met. He is friendly, outgoing
and relaxed. His determination to strive in his work has returned. He has
taken control of his life.
Smith acknowledges the changes he feels and how he had not noticed how
difficult a situation he had got himself into. He also recognized how
close he got to not only losing his job, and his security, but feels he
was on the brink of a breakdown.
Discussion is made into maintaining these changes - how to relax on a
regular basis - relaxing hot baths, regular massage or even reading a
book, not work-related. Also ensuring proper time off, it has been
mentioned he has not taken a day off in over six months.
Assessments are made by the Company's Occupational Health Department
prior to the final session. The tests show that his blood pressure and
stress levels are back to normal, if not slightly low.
The Managing Directors and Occupational Health Department are
overwhelmed by the dramatic change that has occurred with Smith,
especially to his work.
The final session is done as an extra, rather than being essential. It
is decided that Smith will continue to have an On-Site Massage once per
month, as offered by the company to the employees already. This will be to
assist in maintenance to the changes Smith has made.
Conclusion
Smith made dramatic progress over the month of treatment. Stress levels
were reduced, as was blood pressure, by helping Smith relax . He
regained control and took charge of his life. The On-Site Massage helped
him to feel more alert and re-vitalized which enabled him to be more
effective in his workplace.
The company was pleased to have a valuable member of their team back.
His immediate superior was astonished at the improvement of the standard
of his work. He was receiving completed work early rather than late.
Smith was also back to being involved with other colleagues, relaxing
with them rather than trying to do everything on his own. His aggressive,
confrontational manner was also a thing of the past.
The Managing Directors and Occupational Health Department also decided
to implement On-Site Massage as part of their Stress Management program,
rather than just being an added bonus for staff to enjoy, as it had been
seen previously.
