Chair massage enhances workspaces
2023 is bringing change to the office environment! Let Corporate Massage Kneads bring mobile chair massage to Maryland companies.
Ergonomic and productive workspaces are very “in” right now. As many large corporations draw their office staff back into the office, it is important to have functional workspaces to help transition workers.
Here are some tips that I have learned from different journals, websites, and daily newspapers.
Productivity is key here so one way to maximize your tasks is to clear the clutter on the desktop, files, and walls. As time-consuming as that sounds, the payoff is big to keep a fresh clear desktop to allow our minds to focus on the tasks at hand.
Here are some ideas for small investments which pay off BIG!
Digital scanner
A scanner is a beneficial investment as it saves paper, time in finding important documents, and space in the office.
Proper lighting
Natural light is ideal from windows and when not feasible, recessed lighting will also work. Avoiding desk lamps and floor lamps is key as it takes up valuable floor space and adds to the overall clutter.
Double monitors
Working from two monitors side by side allows for more flexibility with incoming emails, important reference documents, and productivity.
Comfortable common spaces to collaborate
Working collectively on large projects seems to be the trend now. Comfortable and inviting common spaces allow for dialogue and comfort during long work weeks.
Updated kitchen spaces including hot beverages!
An online survey (www.buildings.com) indicated that “73% of office workers said a well-stocked kitchen would make them happier at work, with 57% indicating that it could lead to increased productivity.” What other items would bring some happiness? Coffee, upscale teas, and possibly hot chocolate bring warmth and comfort while boosting productivity.
Clean and efficient offices
Having a regular cleaning to take away debris and trash from each office space goes a long way to boost and make the office more pleasant. An extra seating area in a larger office invites others to bring their ideas for bigger projects.
What else brings productivity, stress relief, and refreshment to your workday? A wellness program providing chair massage from Massage Kneads can enhance the workday experience with many benefits such as:
- Increased morale and productivity.
- Relief of stress and fatigue.
- Relaxation to muscles and soothes the spirit.
- Opens the mind and increases alertness.
- Clears thinking and releases the individual’s innate creativity.
- Increases brain power and sharpens the senses.
Is your business environment in need of some stress relief, wellness, AND productivity? Optimize health in your office and bring Corporate Massage Kneads to offer mobile chair massage in your office for some “kneaded” stress relief.

Coffee talk + chair massage = PERFECT
When it comes to the working world, many of us run on coffee. Whether you enjoy the taste of this beverage or not, coffee is a quick and easy pick-me-up for times of need. Thankfully, there are a wide variety of options when picking your cup of joe in the morning. If you like more milk in your coffee you could opt for a latte and if it’s a hot and muggy morning, try an iced version. The possibilities are endless when it comes to this form of caffeine. Due to the different variants, these energy beans have to offer, you can begin to make changes in the way you drink your coffee. Just like coffee, chair massage requests vary by corporate clients.
Take One!
When you’re reaching over for some sugar packets, take a second to realize how much sugar you actually need. The truth is, many of us add too much sugar to our drinks. It’s certainly noticeable when you get to the bottom of the cup and there are sugar crystals forming. Try to cut back, if you normally use 4 packets, maybe try 3 or even 2. It doesn’t have to be drastic, any change is a step in the right direction. By cutting back, you may begin to enjoy some of the flavors your coffee already contains within. Low sugar amounts will help reduce any form of sugar crash that you may get from too much.
Alternate Creamer
When it comes to adding cream to your coffee, there are an insane amount of options you have. Whole, 2%, Nonfat, and Heavy Cream are some of the generic options you may opt for in your beverage. We all know that heavy cream and whole milk are not good for you. It’s easy to bring your way down to 2% or even nonfat milk. But there are more alternate options out there. Plant-based milk such as soy, almond, and coconut has a unique flavor and creamer value. Personally, I recommend almond milk. The calories are lower, the taste is creamy and it is generally deemed healthier than soy milk.
Coffee is very helpful in the working world and many of us take advantage of its ability to wake us up and keep us focused. However, it’s important to be smart and manage the way you take your coffee. Too much sugar or unhealthy creamer options can lead to crashes at the end of the day or even more severe problems down the line.
Add on-site chair massage for the PERFECT day!

Chair massage eases exam nerves!
Fall is a very important season for businesses and local colleges. NOW that I have a junior in college, it’s all the more real.
This is around the time when students, as well as their professors, can become very stressed out and tired. Many seek stress relief during this time of year. Exam season usually starts in December, which means students and their educators are now realizing there are only 2 months away until the testing begins. These tests are very important and can make or break your grade for the courses you are taking. Teachers also want you to do well because the district will be looking at how well they prepared their class for the material contained in the final. I have a few tips for educators as well as students during this cram session that many of them will undergo within the upcoming weeks.
Don’t wait till the last moment
While it is nearly impossible to prevent all studying right before final exams, there are a few small things you can do to make it a bit smoother. Study guides are sometimes given by teachers to their students to help them get a good grades on a test. Those study guides are actually also very helpful for the final. Getting a binder is a good step in the right direction for helping keep all of your study materials together when the time comes for the finals. Keep tabs for each class and keep all your study guides as well as your tests and quizzes for the class in the sections. Being able to see what you didn’t do so well on is good so that you can study those specific aspects more in-depth, preventing you from missing them again.
Educators also help out with this one a little bit. Many of today’s programs used for testing will be electronic and online. They show you the questions you missed and you are able to see them. If you have any questions about how to get the answer or why yours was not right, your professor will more than likely help you out with those. Just remember, as a student, your professors may want you to be able to find the answers on your own rather than asking them.
Wellness
Once you have found a good organizational method that helps you keep your materials in one place, it’s time to focus on your personal wellness and relaxation. Many colleges offer programs that are there for you to use including mobile chair massage. These are known as wellness programs and they are a wide variety of different activities for you to do. Fitness centers, pools, and trails may be available on campus to help out with physical stress. Activity generally decreases the stress in your body and can help keep your energy levels more stable. It is also important to sit back and relax sometimes too. Libraries and quiet places to clear your mind might be on campus to help you get some time to yourself.
Chair massage companies specialize in these types of offerings. Corporate Massage Kneads can offer a turn-key program that is easy to schedule and allows for great results. We will come and work with students and educators to help eliminate that exam stress. Schedule your wellness programs NOW.
Mobile chair massage, chair yoga, and other wellness programs enhance productivity throughout the day and week. The benefits of mobile chair massage are many including increased productivity, improved mental acuity, decreased stress, decreased absenteeism due to stress-related illnesses along with fewer aches and pains from prolonged sitting.
My local client was thrilled with his experience last week. Wouldn’t you to enjoy the same results? See other testimonials here!

Chair massage and NEW techniques!
Enjoy mobile chair massage!
Fall is here which means a change to me! The dropping of the leaves is like shedding old habits and brings forth new energy and interest. Autumn also means it is time for the renewal of my continuing education credits as a seasoned licensed massage therapist! Go on and schedule your mobile chair massage event NOW!
Thus, I signed up in May for a well-known visiting instructor to come to my area. As I thought, the wait was so worth it as I enjoyed some fellowship while learning new skills on Sunday.
The topic of the Indian Head, Foot, and Neck massage class was intriguing and allowed for new techniques to be enjoyed by mobile chair massage clients and table clients alike. After sixteen years of offering on-site chair massage, it is time to refresh and bring new skills to new and familiar clients. The class was excellent and well worth the effort!
As mentioned, on Sunday, I spent all day with other local therapists which energized and confirmed my passion for massage. We chatted like old friends, enjoyed free massages, giggled, and laughed while practicing new techniques with new and different scented oils! What a great way to spend a Sunday!
I ask you this dear reader! When was the last time you had the opportunity to relax while enjoying a new hobby, treatment, or skill? The time is now to shed old ideas, habits, and outcomes and start anew as Mother Earth tells and shows us how! Mobile chair massage is my passion. What is yours?
When organizing my thoughts for this blog, I realized that I have been working through projects from mid-summer to now in order to bring new exciting changes to my company, Corporate Massage Kneads. I find it interesting that we work towards goals and projects in detail sometimes without noticing the momentum and timing of such efforts. An example that comes to mind was hiring new mobile to meet the requests for chair massages in Maryland.
So many loyal clients communicate with us to update us that massage is an important part of their week. Massage Kneads is thrilled to provide such a well-received and requested program. Mobile chair massage is easy to set up, reasonable in price, and efficient as massage therapists are on-site ready to work on those aches and pains.

Chair massage fixs “tech neck!”
What is “tech neck,” you ask? Tech neck is classified as a condition that is caused by a strain on the neck, back, and shoulder muscles. It develops from tilting 
your head in a downward posture for long periods of time. As a result, it will cause strain to your neck, shoulder, and back muscles to strain thus resulting in tech neck. This blog will address how to aid in avoiding “tech neck” through proper posture, strengthening, and onsite chair massage.
Technology has become an important life for many of us on a daily basis. If you work in the office, however, technology is everything to you. Each day you enter that office building, you use a variety of tech to help you complete your job efficiently. Without all the help that these electronics provide us, we would be struggling to meet deadlines. It’s insane to think about all the gadgets that we use in the office. Swipe cards to log into shifts/ open doors, computers to get our major work done, tablets, phones, projectors, speakers, the list goes on. These things are made to make our days a little bit easier, but they don’t only provide us with benefits.
When you’re sitting in your office chair at your desk, you may notice that you aren’t exactly sitting up straight. This is something commonly known as “tech neck” which is a form of bad posture that consists of our heads drooping and our shoulders positioned forward. This posture has become prominent due to phone and computer usage. Since we need to get a better view of the screen, we adapt our bodies to see better and type easier. While this may seem harmless, it can actually affect many different things. It has been shown that slouching and bad posture promotes decreased energy and can affect your mood.
THREE Solutions for you
Proper Posture
After learning about how bad posture can affect your mood and your energy, you might want to try a few changes in your lifestyle. The first one is relatively easy and can help show you results over a period of time. Changing your desk setup to promote proper posture is a small change that can help you in incredible ways. There are a wide variety of ways you could go about this, whether you buy chair pads to help you sit up straight or re-positioning your computer for easier access to the screen and keyboard.
Core Strength
There are a few recommended exercises you can begin daily that can improve your posture. Holding your body in rough positions emphasizes stability in your body. Some examples include Push-ups, deadlifts, or planks. By emphasizing stability in your workouts, you can expect to see a change in how you stabilize yourself while sitting down in a chair. You will have more control over the way you’re positioned and your body as a whole.
Onsite Chair Massage
Spending years using bad posture is a difficult habit to break and many of us have yet to do so. This can cause pain in your back that is very hard to get rid of. To take a step in the right direction, we have loyal clients trusting us with offering Chair Massage in Maryland for 16+ years! Corporate Massage Kneads is owned and operated by a licensed massage therapist for 21 years!
Our experts will make sure to relieve pain from the common problem areas you have from bad posture. With this pain gone, expect to have a happier mood overall and increased energy levels! Request your free quote today and experience pain relief.

Any office style can suit chair massage!

When creating wellness programs for a company, there seems to be a trend of “one size fits all” or generic copy-paste wellness plans for companies. Corporations are going for a more modern, technology-based workspace with an open area building structure. There is definitely a reason for this trend, however, as many specialists have noticed that this style of work can be very beneficial to productivity and energy throughout the day. Companies aim to have high productivity for their company, so why not go with the best option? The reason this can be an issue is that you need flexibility for office space so that nobody is left out. Many clients inquire about the space required when scheduling an onsite chair massage event.
Take into account different needs that workers in your office building may have. Not every person is at the same level socially, emotionally, or even physically, especially following COVID. There are many people who would rather work by themselves in a small four-corner cubicle than in an open area collaborative workspace. It all depends on the individual, and when considering the layout of the building and what to include, get a feel for what everyone wants. It may be beneficial to send out a short mandatory survey to see the interests of everyone before deciding.
Emotional Relief
While being social and discussing plans with your coworkers is a very important aspect of many of our jobs, we also need time to ourselves. The best way to accommodate this is to create a safe quiet zone. A relaxation room with calm, lowlights, and maybe even an area to grab some hot tea or coffee. This style of room allows for a place to go if you need some time alone or away from the loud crowd at work. You can sit down in a comfortable chair, grab a cup of tea, and read a book.
Social Hour
There are also people who experience quite the opposite of a social work environment. Many places have a standard of quiet, calm workplaces. This can be beneficial in allowing for focus and keeping productivity high, but it’s not for everyone. If your workplace is like this, you may want to have social gathering events daily. This can be achieved by having picnics once a week on Fridays and cookies and tea on Mondays. Once you have mapped out a schedule to help employees engage with each other socially for a little bit on a daily basis, you can really improve the overall mood of those who are social butterflies.
Depending on the way your office is set up, it’s important to accommodate areas in the workspace so everyone can do their best. It can be a damper on your overall mood if you’re a social butterfly and your office is constantly so quiet you can hear a pin drop. The other way around as well, it can really be hard to find alone time in an office that’s constantly busy and loud. By accommodating both of these styles of work, you are improving productivity, because employees now have the options and resources to help them get the energy they need.
