Across the nation, companies are experiencing the benefits of massage in the workplace!
Corporate chair massage has quickly become one of the most popular and requested benefits in the workplace today. The physical demands of long hours at the computer and the high stress of the new marketplace have made work stress reduction necessary. This service reduces fatigue and tension for greater productivity and safety. Whether your company uses it through a regular employee wellness or benefits package, or as part of an incentive program, this type of program can be an asset to your human resource department and your company.

If you have heard that massage therapy can help you with your aches and pains, then you are correct. But when it comes to selecting a massage therapist in your local area, how do you go about it, and which one do you choose?

Before selecting a therapist you really have to know exactly what you want. Do you want relief from an ache or pain? Do you want to go and be pampered and relax? Do you want a muscle expert who can help with a chronic problem? Do you want to see a specialist who can focus on a specific concern? Or do you want a generalist who can give you a whole body massage and loosen you up from head to toe?

This is a very important first point because if you are looking for someone who specializes in fixing chronic pain, then you will not select a therapist that works in a spa. Why? Because usually these types of therapists only do relaxation massage and therefore they will not be able to help fix your pain.

Without a doubt one great way to find a therapist in your local area is to consult with your friends, family and colleagues. Sure they may not know a therapist in your area, but it doesn't hurt to ask. And quite often people are surprised because their friends have heard of someone really good in the local area. Word of mouth recommendation is a powerful indicator that your local therapist has a good reputation and can deliver the results you are after.

If you follow these few words of advice, then I am sure you will be one step closer to selecting exactly the right massage therapist to look after you and your needs.
