![]() Today I came across an excellent page that summed up a lot of things I wanted to say in regards to Event massage, so I thought I would share it here. It's from a company called USA Events massage and they specialize in chair massage at Events, and they seem to know their stuff. The article is used with their permission and blessing (well, their permission anyway). You can find the link to the original post link at the end of the article if you want to check it out. Bodyworkz can provide one or more therapists to come to your event, or Conference, bringing their massage chairs (or massage tables if preferred), to fit in around your stand or table that will definitely attract attention to you and your team. Why not provide one of your own trade or team shirt for the therapist to wear as well? Alternatively, set up a Lounge area where attendees can enjoy a 10-15 minute massage session before moving on to the next Speaker. 'There's no reason why you shouldn't have chair massages available somewhere at your event. Surveys show they help with attendee satisfaction, and when they're sponsored, generates extra revenue! Chair massages are considered a plus at any size event... and especially to those who need it to get some relief for a painful headache, stiff neck, shoulder pain, or backache. Just having it available, shows concern for everyone's health and well-being. Chair massages at events are nothing new, and are now expected by many at multi-day conferences. There are so many reasons to have chair massage at your event and nearly as many ways to use it. Have a look!
Sponsorship: Chair Massages make for a great sponsorship opportunity with a lot of added exposure for the sponsor(s). So pick a name for it and put it up for sponsorship. Use one of these, or come up with your own, Oasis, Relaxation Station, Renew Zone, Stress-Free Zone, Recharge Station. Rest Stops Sponsorship: One or more sponsored massage chair stations. A chair and masseuse at each rest stop. Great for large Exhibit Halls and daily sponsorship opportunity. Affordable for small and/or new Exhibitors. Chair Massages near Registration Area: Great sponsorship exposure. Great relief from the tension and stress of traveling, as well as waiting in registration lines. Exhibitor Lounges: Exhibitors normally put in long hours. Massage is a great way to help them recharge. Great association sponsorship. Association/Membership Booth: Give away free massages for joining, or renewing membership. Hospitality Suites: Relax and refresh VIPs Free Chair Massages at your Event...
The Science... Health Benefits A seated chair massage is more than a luxury that leaves you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. It can have positive health implications. In just 10 minutes, your blood pressure and heart rate decrease, resulting in a state of calm alertness. Dr. Tiffany Field, founder of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine told "More" magazine 'that any type of massage, including chair massage, can reduce stress, improve sleep, help sore and tight muscles and enhance immunity.' So anyone who needs to stay alert and focused, should get a short chair massage. So what better time do you need attendees and exhibitors alert and focused than during your event?'
