The Benefits Of Acupuncture At Work

On-Site Acupuncture
Companies are increasingly incorporating wellness programs for their employees,  On-site acupuncture is a fantastic addition to your corporate wellness program.  Acupuncture has been shown to dramatically reduce stress and anxiety, reduce pain and inflammation,  and boost immunity.  And that’s only the beginning…

Benefits to employees include:

  • Lower levels of stress

  • Increased immunity

  • Less frequent/diminished headaches, neck and back pain

  • Increased energy and motivation

  • Increased well-being

  • More restful sleep


Benefits to employers include:

  • Reduced healthcare costs

  • Increased productivity

  • Decreased rates of illness

  • Enhanced recruitment and retention of employees

  • Reduced sick days

  • Improved employee relations and morale

  • Happier, healthier employees.

Reasons to have acupuncture at work:

  • Burnout prevention and recovery for professionals

  • Stress, hormones and nervous system regulation

  • Improving energy, creativity and productivity

  • Ditching brain fog for a more effective workday

  • Creating better work/life balance

  • Transforming the body from an enemy to an ally

Modern research shows that acupuncture works with our central nervous system to stimulate the release of endorphins, improve circulation, and enhance immune function. Acupuncture also regulates the flow of Qi, and most people experience a profound relaxation during treatments.

Are You Ready to Prioritize Your Team’s Well-being?

Acupuncture is a safe, effective therapy for common workplace concerns such as:

  • Stress

  • Back/neck pain

  • Headaches/migraines

  • Eye strain

  • Fatigue

  • Lack of focus

How it works
Team members will sign up for time slots and meet in the conference room or office space designated for the acupuncture treatments.  Each participant will complete a personal information intake form sharing their chief complaint or wellness priority. After a brief 1:1 consultation, a treatment plan is created and needles are placed. Acupuncture is performed on the ear, head, hands, wrists, and arms below the elbows. Needles may also be placed on the feet, ankles, and legs below the knees. Each person will sit with the needles for about 20 minutes. From start to finish, one acupuncture treatment lasts 30-35 minutes.

A minimum of 6 employees is required to host an on-site Integrate Wellness Break. For acupuncture to be most effective, it is recommended that companies schedule weekly or bi-weekly sessions for their employees.
