Self-care resources

How important is self-care?
By fostering early intervention of mild work-related conditions, your company can reduce costs due to medical treatments, lost work time, and low productivity.. The average carpal tunnel surgery case costs $100,000 in direct and indirect expenses, and as many as 90% of these cumulative disorders are preventable.
How do the self-care programs work?
Self-care resources are attained by clicking on the body part that is uncomfortable. Workers can easily get help with specific symptoms or problems they are experiencing. A worker having wrist pain, for example, can learn how to properly adjust their keyboard, learn proper keyboarding techniques, and do stretching exercises to alleviate symptoms.
Are these self-care programs a substitute for a physician's care?
Nothing can replace the personal attention of a physician. Our self-care resources emphasize prevention and treatment of mild symptoms before they worsen. The self-care programs alert the user when a problem has arisen and when outside intervention is needed.
