As I have been practicing more yoga in 2020, I am reminded that my body speaks to me every single day–especially during an hour class of taking yoga. Each movement indicates whether or “knot” it is a preferred stance, pose, and activity.
Daily movement tells the story!
Not only that, my body speaks to me whether I am sitting at my desk, walking outside, or doing common household chores. We move constantly through the day and our body is expected to cooperate 24/7 with each activity regardless of routine or comfort.
The daily “pain” when working at a desk
As many of us work at a desk (at home now) or within a cubicle if called back to work are stationary and sedentary for sometimes hours on end with long projects and/or conference calls. Often clients tell me that a “bad habit” of office workers is that they often tuck one leg under their seat to nestle into the long days of office work. This particular “bad habit” allows for a shift in body weight and posture which has lasting effects on our already strained muscles. All these habits have a cumulative effect on our bodies, minds, and comfort levels.
Often while at the desk, our back muscles tend to be over-stretched while our chest tends to be shortened to accommodate odd positions (for sometimes hours!) at our workstations.
So, I ask – what are you doing to combat less movement each day? Chair yoga is an option along with other activities to decrease stress and increase productivity and mental clarity.
Walking during lunch is another tried and true option to clear the mind and bring on movement and a fresh perspective.
Why chair massage can offer benefit!
Of course, chair massage is (our) preferred option for all the reasons you know and have been stated time and time again within my blogs! A quick session to settle into on-site chair massage will bring pain-relief, stress relief along with some “kneaded” relaxation. Wellness services that include mobile chair massage can bring many benefits!
Corporate Massage Kneads’ client testimonial
One client just sent this review pre-COVID after I worked on her muscles.
A great testimonial for Corporate Massage Kneads’ client about chair massage in Maryland
Worth It! “Janet is very knowledgeable and is not afraid to dig in if you like it! I did 15 minutes this time, and will be doing a 30-minute session every month from now on! I highly recommend it every time as I want to take advantage of this benefit. It was extremely enjoyable and a fantastic way to take a break during the workday!”
Imagine how your body language would change at the end of the day with a little downtime in the office to refresh and rejuvenate vs. singing the same old song!
On-site chair massage works to relieve back and neck pain as well as is stress-relieving and productivity-increasing.
