If employees suffer from aches and pains or even lack of focus, it reduces work productivity. Yoga can reduce absenteeism and improve work performance by successfully reducing pain, improving focus, relieving low back issues, neck, upper back or other issues, enhance mood and energize employees. When employees feel better they work better.
REDUCES PAIN & IMPROVES PAIN MANAGEMENT
