Wellness Education Systems On-Site First Aid Solutions

Sprain and strain injuries significantly impact both the economy and the workforce. These injuries lead to increased healthcare costs, workers’ compensation claims, and lost productivity, resulting in substantial financial burdens for businesses and healthcare systems alike. Also, affected employees often face time off work, reduced performance, and long-term health issues, which can further diminish overall workplace efficiency. Investing in preventive measures and proper ergonomic practices not only promotes employee well-being but also helps organizations reduce costs and sustain a healthy, productive workforce.

Our Services

WES Case
Management

We manage a large variety of soft tissue aches and pains including those derived from (or being precursors to) sprains, strains, tendinitis, headaches, repetitive motion trauma of the low back, shoulder, neck, knee, hand, wrist, ankle and foot.

Soft Tissue Release (TSTR)

We provide hands on soft tissue release to help workers feel better. Soft tissue release is a highly effective in managing a majority general pain, soreness and inflammation that develop from repeating use, postural restrictions in and out of the work place.

Advantages of Soft Tissue Release

Soft tissue release can lead to many benefits including: decreased discomfort after the tightness in the tissues has been released and movement has been improved upon, improvement in range of movement as joints can move with less friction or jolting movement, improved muscle strength can happen due to improved circulation to the treated area. Improvement in self ergonomics and attitude, making it easier to survive stress and work load. Resistance to soft tissue wear leading to less risk of overuse injury.

Is Soft Tissue Release First Aid?

Industrial based massage follows OSHA standard guidelines as first aid (action that helps a bad situation) and does NOT fall into the category of medical treatment. Therefore, industrial based massage is one of the first, and most effective lines of defense to (make something as small as possible/treat something important as unimportant) workers’ payment recordable claims. Soft tissue release plays a big part in helping workers avoid restricted work duties and light duty roles.

Ergonomic Safety Audit

This is a worst case scenario, wall to wall audit covering OSHA regulations, and beyond. The purpose of this audit is identifying any safety concerns. This covers conditions, behaviors, programs, policies and training.

Kinesiotaping

Kinesiotape offers significant benefits in helping employees who are experiencing soft tissue discomfort. Not only does it help with pain relief, but it has been shown to improve circulation and lymphatic flow as well as enhancing postural awareness. Kinesiotaping is an elastic adhesive tape that is used with the intent of treating pain and disability from athletic injuries and a variety of other physical disorders.

Client Testimonials

We had no recordables that were related to sprain/strain injuries in 2022 or so far in 2023. We did have 5 employees during that time frame who we had scheduled with your team onsite that did not turn to recordable due to having this program in place.

One year we had 20 OSHA recordable incidents in the sprain/strain category alone. Thanks to the availability of onsite care, early intervention, and consistent follow-up, we’ve been able to bring that number down to zero. This is a direct result of being able to address discomfort and minor injuries right away, before they escalate into more serious, recordable cases.

Our team has also gained confidence in our safety program. Knowing help is immediately available encourages early reporting, and that allows us to respond quickly and effectively. Onsite work care has become a key part of our safety culture here, and we’re seeing the benefits every day.

Implementing onsite work care has been a game-changer for our safety program. One year we had seven OSHA recordables related to sprains and strains. After introducing the program, we saw a steady decline — and in less than 4 years, we had completely eliminated sprain and strain recordables. Early attention to discomfort and faster response times made all the difference. It’s helped us protect our team and strengthen our safety culture.
