Posing solutions to business largest health issue.
79.2 % of Australians experience back pain in their life. Today, aproximately 175 people will suffer a significant injury lifting or carrying. We train your staff to not be part of this statistic.
Why do injuries occur?
Staff don't injure themselves on purpose, for the main part. They injure themselves because they think they are doing the right thing or they think they can get away with a particular movement-and they mis-calculate. Consider the statistics to the right from Chevron Texaco in the US. After Alexander Technique based training, postural awareness raised by over 40%. 79% of participants thought Alexander based training was highly effective for RSI prevention and almost 80% felt that they could discrminate and intervene to prevent injury.
