This module will be an introduction to teaching mindfulness and meditation to children in fun and creative ways.

Benefits of Corporate Chair Massage for Employers:
It’s easy to see how many benefits corporate chair massage programs could bring to employees. But how do they impact employers in a positive way that makes the cost of the program worth the investment?

Employee productivity goes up. A healthy, happy worker is much more likely to be productive than a stressed-out, grumpy one.

Health care costs go down. Because having a corporate chair massage program leads to better health for employees, it also leads to fewer sick days, fewer on-the-job injuries, and fewer hospital bills.

Improves workplace morale. Again, a healthy, happy worker is much more likely to be a good team player than the stressed-out employee. Workplace morale is worth a lot when it comes to fostering productivity and a positive culture.

Attract and retain top talent. Company benefits are a huge part of why people accept and stay at jobs. Having something that greatly improves health and reduces stress is a major incentive to take a job and stay there. Employees stay where they feel cared for, and chair massage programs let them feel cared for.

Duration 15 minutes to 30 minutes per person. Minimum booking 2 hours

On-Site Clients

About Pamela

“I understand that employees are experiencing high levels of stress due to work and life demands and often having the opportunity to de stress or address a muscular issue while at work takes the pressure off finding time in the week to follow up on self care.”

Complementary Health

I have been working in the field of Complementary Health for almost 18 years. Specialising in Holistic Massage, Reflexology, Sports Injuries, Stress Management, Holistic Nutrition & Aromatherapy. I have attained further training in Fertility Reflexology, Dry Needling, Cupping Therapy, Ante Natal Massage, Manual Lymphatic Drainage and many other Massage add-ons. I am also a member of Baby Massage Ireland and a trained Baby Massage Instructor.

Self-Compassion & Mindfulness

I understand that life is busy and fast paced and it can be difficult to find a healthy work/life balance. I get it! I’ve been there. On my own personal journey I realised that in order to be fully present and not “so busy” or restless I had to embark on a path of self discovery, this led me to the practice of self-compassion and mindfulness, allowing me to quieten my mind and simply be in the “hear & now”.

In 2018 I began training in the Creative Mindfulness For Kids Method under the guidance of child psychologist Louise Shanagher. I now offer Wellness Workshops for children and teenagers based on the creative mindfulness curriculum. I’ve also qualified as a Health & Wellness Coach with the Institute of Health Science.

Corporate Wellness

I have been working in the Corporate Wellness sector since 2009 offering On-Site Massage & Wellness Workshops and today I have expanded this offering to some of Irelands largest Pharmaceutical Company’s, Community Organisations and Schools.

In 2022 The Wellness Tribe was born . Having the advantage of working on site I could see there was a need to offer employees more than just on site massage. To make a difference we want our clients to feel supported, and educate them in all areas of wellness so that they may have the tools necessary to help them as they journey through life
