Corporate Wellness Programs

Corporate Wellness Program

Corporate wellness is a fast-growing field that over 60% of companies in the U.S. have implemented for their employees. The rising costs of healthcare in America have prompted corporations to make a preventative health a priority to ensure their employees can stay healthy, efficient, and focused on work-related tasks without a significant health issue impacting their work and health life. A major health event for one employee that results in their missing work for an extended period of time can induce high-stress levels for those who rely on them to carry out their own work, and for those who are assigned their tasks during their absence. 

While most companies have been stuck paying for reactive health care costs for their employees, research indicates that companies who implement corporate wellness programs allow for happy, healthy, productive employees who are less likely to miss work. Current research shows that the conventional approach of paying for an employee who has already fallen sick comes out to a healthcare cost of $11,000 per employee. 

A proactive approach that includes health-conscious lifestyle changes related to diet, exercise, sleep, stress reduction, healthy relationships, and more can result in a win-win situation for both the corporation and the employee by cutting down costs related to expensive reactive care, ensuring a long term investment in the well-being of employees, and promoting healthy behaviors for the entire workforce.

These healthcare costs can be reduced drastically with the implementation of an employee wellness and prevention program with a Certified Health Coach team.

What can our corporate wellness/prevention program offer you?
A great program to benefit not only corporations but groups, schools, and community organizations.
  • Three in-office workshops, 30 minutes each, during lunch on-site that cover a variety of topics - sleep, diet, exercise, stress management, work relationships, and more. Focus on the benefits of lifestyle modifications and getting to the root cause of issues instead of using a band-aid approach. If you would like just one 60 minute Speaker Engagement visit, we are happy to accommodate what works best for your organization.
  • Resources to help your employees implement and follow through with their own personal wellness goals related to diabetes, heart health, cholesterol, stress, sleep, inflammation, weight management, nutrition guidance, digestive issues, and chronic pain/inflammation. We guide and coach them to live a healthier lifestyle to prevent/manage their conditions by digging deep to find the root cause of the problems and avoid the band-aid approach if possible.
  • Employees can sign up at the event for our Individual coaching or Group classes that can be done in-person (if local) at the office at lunchtime, or virtually with weekly and monthly progress goals developed by the employees - making them accountable for their actions. We use motivational interviewing techniques along with positive psychology to listen to their needs and goals.
  • Customized plans to fit the whole body approach into the busy work schedule.
  • Simple, practical techniques to integrate healthy positive behaviors into the workday with lifestyle modifications allowing community support for employees going through similar issues.
  • Our plans include virtual (via zoom) pantry cleaning, grocery shopping guidance, reading nutrition labels, exercise, meditation, food elimination, reintroduction with specialized food plans created by the Institute of Functional Medicine, stress management techniques, sleep hygiene, healthy relationships, heart health, and cooking tips. We also incorporate fun, friendly workplace competition to keep your employees motivated and encouraged to meet their fitness goals. Extensive research has shown that one on one coaching can take 3-4 months to see results, thus requiring a 3-month commitment is required. We collaborate with their physicians and other specialized practitioners in their field if needed. Employees are able to email or text us questions or use zoom to talk to the health coach.
