| Corporate Pit Stop evolved as an extension of
Optimum Health for Life, a therapeutic massage and body work
company. The owner, Linda Penkala, a certified
massage therapist of 20 years, noticed that many clients
had similar symptoms as a result of office and computer work.
It became quite apparent that the negative effects of stress, manifested
through pain and discomfort in the shoulders, neck and arms was already in a chronic phase
with many receiving hour massages. For those that regularly maintained with
massage for their work/life balance, relief was found through the myriad of
benefits from professional massages.
The overwhelming question was "What if people in need had not the time, nor
the resources to receive massage for their symptoms and discomfort?" The answer was to provide a simple, cost effective solution through 15 minute clothed, seated massage on-site at offices. On a regular basis, this can be a great incentive and can help lower health care costs induced by stress. |
