Tailor-made massages to enhance your employees comfort: this is Mica Machado promise De Masseur

A healthy employee is a happy employee but many employees today suffer from stress or muscle problems. To ensure their well-being, some companies are offering massage therapy, which ultimately benefits not only the employee but also the employer.

Often synonymous with a sedentary lifestyle and pressure, office work can have consequences for employees and their health. “These include pressure-related stress as well as muscle contraction problems caused by sitting, leading to pain and discomfort. In the long term, this can lead to musculoskeletal and joint disorders, as well as reduced mobility,” explains De Masseur CEO Mica Machado.

Relaxed employees means reduced absenteeism

Few employees can truly listen to their bodies and recognise the warning signs they send out with most too focused on their work to notice these signs. While physical activity (e.g. exercise, jogging) and a healthy diet are key to relieving tension and stress, regular massages can also help. “Employees may opt for a massage twice a month, every month or every other month. The frequency depends on the individual and their availability”.

Massages – be they relaxing or invigorating – work the muscles in depth leaving employees stress-free and feeling great. “By offering massages on a regular basis, we ensure that these tensions do not return as quickly or at all”.

For employees, a massage offers the chance to relax and alleviate the stress of everyday life while getting a health boost at the same time. For employers, these massages also have several advantages. “Company directors are faced with numerous absences, often due to pain or stress. Thanks to their benefits, massages can help reduce absenteeism.” In addition, many employees are still working from home and do not necessarily have a suitable chair and desk. Massages offer something to look forward to for those returning to the office. “For HR and management, creating a pleasant environment while decreasing psycho-social risks shows an interest in the well-being of employees. This is why we have created partnerships with companies, allowing their teams to enjoy a massage close to their offices at a preferential price, after work or during their lunch break.”

Personalised massages tailored to individual needs

With six offices (Limpertsberg, Gasperich, Kockelscheuer, Soleuvre, Bettembourg and Mersch), De Masseur offers personalised massages. “The uninitiated are usually not keen to book a massage because they don't know which package to choose. But at De Masseur, the client is taken care of. We listen to their needs and adapt our expertise accordingly. For an employee who sits behind a screen for ten hours a day, we will tend to focus on the neck and upper back.”

 To meet a wide range of needs, De Masseur offers relaxing massages with tailored muscle work, as well as more invigorating alternatives to tackle the tensions one by one. “Our fourteen masseurs are all certified and trained in healing and targeted massages. We also continue to develop our skills so we can offer ‘creative massages’. No two massages are ever the same.”
