What is corporate massage? Let’s start with the basics.  Here is the medical definition:
Massage: The manipulation of muscle and connective tissue to enhance the function of those tissues and promote relaxation and well-being. Therapeutic massage can ease tension and reduce pain. Massage can be a part of physical therapy or practiced on its own. It can also be highly effective for reducing the symptoms of arthritis, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other disorders of the muscles and/or nervous system.
So corporate massage just brings massage into the workplace! As you can see massage has many proven benefits.
What is different about corporate massage?

1. Massages are usually shorter in duration. Generally they are 15 or 30 minutes in duration but the amount of time can be set to accommodate the specific company. You can read more in the article How Effective is a 15 Minute Massage to get an idea of how even in that short amount of time so many health benefits can be achieved.
2. Clients don’t have to travel. The massage therapist will come to your place of work and set up for the day. This saves a lot of travel time going to and from your massage appointment. This convenience is a huge time saver for the employee. People don’t always take the time to take care of their health. This opens up massage to more people who otherwise would not take the time to schedule an appointment and then go to their appointment.
3. Corporate massage is done right through your clothing. Employees can come for their massage and get right back to work feeling refreshed and energized. There is no down time other than the actual appointment. Its also a great introduction for employees not familiar with massage.
4. The boss usually pays! Corporate massage is a great way to say thank you to the employees.
