Muscle Pain at Work

Create a healthy workplace and integrate physical exercise into your working day

Muscle pain at work is a well-known problem affecting many in their daily work. Those with sedentary jobs often experience tension and discomfort in the neck and shoulders, while others involved in heavy lifting or repetitive work may feel soreness in the lower back and other areas. In addition to the personal consequences for the individual – such as pain and increased sickness absence – muscle pain also comes at a significant cost for the workplace as a whole. Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way. With a simple daily effort, it is possible to keep pain at bay.

Get help to start physical training at work

There are many ways to design and implement a training programme, but we always see the best results when there is a clear purpose. Together, we will identify the specific needs of your workplace and how training can best prevent and reduce pain and discomfort.

Physical training does not have to be time-consuming, and when exercises are done together with colleagues, it enhances both wellbeing and energy levels at your workplace. There is no need for complex training programmes – exercises can be adapted to your needs and performed without special equipment.

Prevent muscle pain with training during working hours

Targeted physical exercises performed during the working day can help to offset the physical strain associated with job tasks, relieving discomfort and, crucially, preventing future pain. It is not always enough to design the workplace appropriately. The possibility of prevention is much greater if exercise is integrated into work routines and has the best effect when the exercises are performed regularly and not only when it hurts.

Often, only a few simple exercises are needed to achieve clear results in preventing muscle pain, but it is just as important that the programme is organised in such a way that exercise becomes a natural part of the corporate culture. That is why we not only help with exercises that deal with the specific challenges that exist in your workplace – we also work on correct implementation.
