Stretch for Success

- Proactive Prevention with Corporate  Wellness Programs -

A healthy workforce and a safe work environment are key to the success of an organization’s mission. Along with clearly communicated workplace safety policies and procedures, properly training employees about self-care can greatly prevent unnecessary costs related to workers’ compensation. This one-hour interactive program will focus on prevention of injury and improving employees’ postural awareness and correction.  

The program will demonstrate why a stretching program is beneficial to office staff when properly utilized throughout the workday. Rhea O’Connor, a physical therapist, will introduce a time-efficient stretching program that can be incorporated into the typical day of more sedentary employees.  These sustainable stretching and warm-up exercises combine theory with practical application.  They help reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders by reducing fatigue and stiffness; and improving posture, muscular balance, and flexibility. Attendees will receive handouts as reference that can be used to educate and train employees in the work place.
