I have a Wellness event at work coming up and want to try on-site chair massage – what is involved in setting that up?

This is a great question. On-site chair massage can be a great addition to a Wellness programme, and is usually great and well-received feature due to its simple set-up and high benefits (and enjoyment).
We try to be as flexible as possible when setting this up and make suggestions based on your workplace and circumstance, but there are a few general points to consider, so I will cover them here.

First, you’ll have to decide how long you want the overall session to be (what massage package to purchase). This is usually dependent on the size of the company and the size of your event. For example, is it a weekly thing or does it go just over a day? Also, not everyone will want a massage so basically the best thing is that you decide how many people you want to fit in over the session, and what your budget would be.
As an example; our massage packages start from 2h and goes up to 6h per therapist. This means that a 4h massage package with 15-min sessions will cover 16 people, while the same package at 10-min sessions can cover 24 people.
The 6h massage package can cover 24 people at 15-minute session (for one therapist), but if you choose 10-minute sessions, one therapist could cover almost 36 people. This means that with 2 therapists, you would have almost 70 people covered.
We can help you work this out of course to make it easier for you, we have been doing Wellness Events since we started back in 2010 so we have a lot of experience to share.

Secondly, once you have decided what massage package you want, then you need to consider if you want 2 therapists to cover the time, or do you want to split it over more days?
After the big stuff is decided on, we will get down to the nitty gritty of the dates and times, to get your event booked in. We will want to know if there is parking available because there may be a parking charge (as per our T & C’s).
We usually send an invoice after the event but if you want the invoice to pre-book your session, you just need to let us know!
I hope this helped understanding the process of setting up chair massage for your Wellness Event a bit further. If you have any further questions or need more information, please contact us on info@bodyworkz.co.nz
