Corporate Wellness has been my focus for the Massage Professionals of Illinois, Inc. I have worked on many patients lately all of which have the same complaint. They are experiencing pain in their low back, fore arms, neck and migraines. I would like to implement a solid program in corporate america.
Today in most corporations executives are worried about revenue, productivity and not the employees. Massage, stress relief, and stress management are all apart of improving the work enviroment for the many employees. Massage isn't a luxury it's apart of a life style choice. Many people receive massages on vacations on luxurious islands but never consider having that relaxing feeling more often.
Considering that many people live a sedentary life and never consider the longterm affect of such a choice. We have to realize massage can assist in many ways more than you could ever imagine. Adding massage to several life style changes including office stress management choices you can add to the quality of life.
Considering that not managing stress, poor nutrienal habits, and very little to no healthy activity can lead to some major health issues; Heart Disease, Hyper tension, and migraines etc. We have to look at our diet choices. We create hereditary conditions because we practice and teach our poor choices. Implementing the wellness programs will teach many employees how to change their poor choices into wise and more beneficial healthy choices.
Working with Corporations closely I will show how they can increase productivity, company moral, and decrease office illness. To improve the office you have to start with the root issue, stress has been proven to weaken the immune system and create illiness such as the conditions listed above.
We look forward to entering the Corporate world and assisting in the change and improvement of office staff.
Look forward to hear from you all.

Corporate Wellness development
Todays corporations have a lot to consider these days. Employees are over worked and majority would even say under paid. The average employee works at a desk. If you work at a desk or on your feet there are many risks to consider. As a massage therapist of almost 8 years I have come across many patients with serveral work related injuries. Corporate America has to understand and remember without healthy employees you will not have a fully functioning company. Over the years I have watched employees experience community contracted illinesses such as viruses and common colds and part of it is some places have poor ventilation in the office. When you have over worked employees you have an employee with a weakend immune system. When you add this up it makes for a very poor work enviroment.
I have dealt with patients who didn't have basic knowledge on stress management, stretching and posture adjustments during work. I advice patients to remember to take atleast 10 minutes out of every hour to stretch and do breathing exercises to assist them with preventing conditions such as carpal tunnel, headaches, migraines, stiff or sore neck and shoulder which are very common condiditon for people who work on computers. There can be chronicThe average employee can experience chronically contracted upper trapezius, forward head and rounded shoulders or chronic headaches. Anyone who has ever experienced a muscle spasm can understand why it would be a major discomfort attempting to work a 8 hour work day in that condition.
I have been working on an educational program for Massage Professionals of Illinois, Inc Corporate Wellness Program to cover every aspect of an office experience. We have to remember even as massage therapist we to have to keep ourselves in the best shape. My most remembered conversation with every patient is drink water, stretch and remember to breath.
I have to remind my Husband every day he works for UPS and Comcast. Yes both so you must know he experienece quite a bit of aches and pains. Thanks to a chiropractor and my massage we have controlled it as best we can.
I am signing out for now I have to start doing more work. I have to work on my business plan. i have to go to score website and get their templete. I pray you have a Blessed day as I have.

Bad Business
Good evening,
Well I still haven't heard anything from Bob of 100 year wellness. I am so suprised he started out working with the Dr. and now he hasn't returned anyones call. I emailed him and no response as of yet. I hope he has left for vacation or something. Why would you have someone work with you and offer to pay and then not pay. i am a tad bit upset. I gave of a 1/2 day of work, I could have stayed and made money. What's funny is he Bob thinks he will get away with cheating. Not!!! I love it when people play themselves. Why?? Why?? Why??
One thing I know is his business will never prosper because he is a cheat. it's one thing being a shrud business man and another thing being a liar and cheat. Bob offered to pay $40 and hour for 4.5 hours and didn't pay.
I had a busy day today. Patients were on time. I really enjoy when that happends. I made a nice connection with a marketing company Red Devil Promotions I hope to meet with Danielle soon. I went for a run today after my work day Jennifer my co-worker at Illinois Spinal Care went Elmhurst praire path and ran 2.37 miles. I have to prepare for the Frank Lloyd Wright 5k run October 24th and the 5k Hot Chocolate run November 6th. I have to be ready. I participated in the Elmhurst 4 on the 3rd on July 3rd and didn't do as well as I would have like to. I did 4 miles in 1 hour and 2 minutes. I felt like I had been beat up.
Running has helped me so much. I can think clear and I am so energized after. I finished my run, bathed, and now I'm cooking chicken and noodles for dinner.
My Husband has gone to bowl with his friend Tony he is in town till Saturday. I am so glad Tony is okay he is in the Army. I hope he is okay he has served over in Afganastan. he hasn't spoken to us about what's going on over there but he will say you couldn't handle what he has seen. i just pray that he will be healthy mentally and physically. I have encountered many young men who have served over there and they all have some signs of PTSS.

Morning After Catch up
Good morning,
I was a little distracted yesterday I'm still in shock. I worked with a company as a favor for my employers back in May 2010 to help promote the office. I can't believe Bob still hasn't paid me yet. Bob owns a health talk business, what he does is he does what's called lunch and learns he will supply lunch and do a health and wellness talk for about 15 to 30 minutes. After he does his talk he sends people to us or any other chiropractor he is promoting at that particular event. It's been since May and he still hasn't paid me or my friend, he will not return calls nor will he answer any call. I'm still shocked he hung up on Crystal last week. I can't believe it. I have never dealt with any one like this before.
So after figuring out what to do next with the Bob situation I get a call from Dr. D'Amico yesterday telling me I'm in the early stages of Arthritis. I have a shin splint from running on concrete that really bothers me. Well they have me go in to check that I have no fractures and it turns out they find an unidentified mass in the x-ray. I was told to do a second X-ray to confirm what they saw. Well yesterday was the call it turns out they saw a calcified bone growth 1.2 cm by 1 mil in the between the tibia and fibula, they also found osteophytes and cyst that I can remember the name of at the moment. They will send the reading to me for my records. I am only 35 years old and though I know I had a few knee injuries I can't believe that I was diagnosed with early stages of arthritis.
I remember when I was younger you think your invincible but as you get older you find that you aren't. Like my Auntie Edith who is fighting Lung cancer. I'm sure she never expected that all the smoking and drinking would lead up to 2 bouts of cancer.
Yesterday was a great day in the office I was in high spirits as usual and all my patients were wonderful as usual. I have 2 new patients that should up on my schedule for yesterday. The male is going to interesting he is an engineer who can hardly relax. He would continuously shrug his shoulders during the massage. He was a first timer for massage. i really enjoy when I'm someone first experience. I hope everything goes well with him. I will only See him once a week.
Well I didn't get a chance to focus on finishing anything for Massage Professionals of Illinois, Inc yesterday. i have to finish my application for Department of Employment to become a licensed placement agency, make an appointment with SCORE and I have to set my prices to recruit, my wellness program and I still haven't selected my logo. It doesn't sound like much to some but for me it is plenty.
Well off I go I have to get to work. I haven't eaten any breakfast yet or do my run yet. I have to get a mile in today some kind of way. I Pray your day will be Blessed... Remember you should be a Blessing today.

Ending my night
My evening has been pretty slow at home. I updated some post on my social media sites and cooked dinner for me and the Hubby. I made baked chicken, spinach, and Yams with lemonaide.
I am still not sleepy. I took a rhodiola earlier today to stay nice an energized at work. Rhodiola is a natural energy source it is a plant. Anyway they are so nice to have when I go for a run or just need to stay alert. It's not like take caffein pills or anything. Rhodiola only works when your moving the minute you stop it stops and you don't get that crash after ward. Well, I took one and now I can't go to sleep so I caught up on some reading.
I found a interesting article on Asthma being linked to Vitamin D deficiency for children http://bit.ly/dlQvPY. i can see how that is possible. i found out a few months ago my Vitamin D was really low. My vitamin D level should be 30 and it was 14. I couldn't understand why I was so fatigued, irrated and short with everyone. I hope my levels are normall now they perscribed me 50,000 IU's. It was explained to me that the national average is to low and the government is increasing it. I also found an article on Memory loss in older pear shape women linked to the excess weight around their waist http://bit.ly/amUEG0. Crazy right? I thought it was but due to the hormonal release during weight gain that is secreted from the fat I can see has how it happends considering your waist line can affect your heart.
well finally I am ready for bed. wow!! I can hear my Husband snoring in the other room. Wish me a peaceful nights sleep.
