What’s Different About SETUPSTRONG™ at Work?
Despite the best efforts of company healthcare decision makers, ergonomic interventions and even the vast majority of medical interventions fail to eliminate the most common root and perpetuating causes of discomfort, pain, and injury: the musculoskeletal use patterns that continually increase wear, tear, and strain. Reliance on ergonomic chairs actually fosters these high-risk positions and movements.
SETUPSTRONG™ at Work training identifies participants’ high-risk musculoskeletal patterns and reverses them. Each participant learns how to avoid making themselves weak and injury-prone in their workplace activities–and key activities outside of work.
When other approaches have not provided satisfactory or lasting results, SETUPSTRONG™ helps you and your employees achieve long-term pain relief and top performance.
