Neck problems or headaches due to tense muscles? Strain is the most common cause of reported workplace injury and the most common cause of absence from work. Striving for good ergonomics means starting from the way our body works and adapting our furniture and equipment to it - not the other way around.
Uggla Massage & Wellness offers two different package services in this area;
A lecture on ergonomics and individual workplace reviews for employees. Both services can be delivered either physically or digitally to you - whatever you prefer!
Read more about each service below...
Lecture Ergonomics
The lecture gives tips on how you can create a good working environment and ergonomics with simple means. You will gain knowledge about basic ergonomic principles for those working in an office or home office. We will go through the most important things to consider in terms of chairs, tables, computers and lighting. Read more here
Time 30 min or 45 min
Available in Swedish or English

Workplace walkthrough
Small adjustments to the existing workplace and equipment (chair, computer and light) can make a big difference. Sometimes help is needed to change a behaviour, such as standing more at the workstation. We help employees adapt ergonomics to their workplace as best they can, based on their unique circumstances. We don't force you to make expensive investments in unnecessary equipment that is not used.
Format: we allocate 20 minutes per workplace (can be modified), with each workplace adapted to the person using it. At the end of the assignment, we will provide a written report describing the actions taken and the potential for improvement. Read more here
Now you can sign a discounted service agreement with us so you always have help close at hand when you need it. Perfect even for new employees. Order now and we'll give you a first pass!
Our ergonomics expert Marie!
Marie Ericsson is a naprapath and trained in ergonomics. With 14 years of experience in workplace reviews and lectures on ergonomics, she is an expert on the body and the strain that can be caused by monotonous working postures.
As many people have their workplace at home, lectures and individual consultations are offered online that are adapted to the flexible solutions many work from today.
Here's what our customers say
Yesterday Marie held a draw for our employees and we are very happy! It was very pithy and concrete where we felt we took away many great tips and tricks on how to improve our physical home work environment. Marie was also an excellent lecturer who delivered the presentation in a clear, calm and energetic way. We are very satisfied! - Fanny Gabrielsson, HR Generalist at Stim
We have contracted Uggla Massage & Wellnes for online workplace reviews. I think the "home visit" itself was great. I was shown my workplace and then given tips and ideas that reinforced my ergonomic working posture, having the right distance to the computer and being aware of appropriate lighting. I get up and move around regularly!" - Jeanette Rosén, Payroll and HR Administrator, Swedish Engineers
"Owl is demonstrating innovation and adaptability by offering online ergonomics training in these pandemic times. Marie at Uggla provided hands-on time and advice on ergonomics for me as a home worker for many months now. I really appreciated the holistic approach as we spent 25 minutes together discussing different working positions, lighting, office chair settings etc. Overall a very valuable briefing!" - Jessica Hörngren, Culture & Talent Generalist at Qlik
Swedish Radio has recently highlighted a study from Science that confirms the importance of physical touch for our mental health, something that may be worth keeping in mind as we gradually scale back on physical encounters with digitalisation and pandemics.
Touch is important and this neurophysiology study is the first to address the importance of the spinal cord.
Listen to this clip from Vetenskapsradion News when Helena Backlund Wasling, associate professor of neurophysiology at the University of Gothenburg, explains how the signals from the skin's cells and nerve fibres are sent to the brain.

What is the importance of massage for health?
It is of great importance, both as a treatment method and for preventive purposes. So you don't have to be in pain for massage to be beneficial, and it has many positive mental effects in particular. Firstly, the physical touch releases the feel-good hormone oxytocin, which reduces stress, among other things. It's also good for you to treat yourself to a moment of relaxation in the midst of the stress of everyday life.
What can massage do?
Massage can reduce everything from tension and pain to improving blood and lymph circulation. It is therapeutic and preventive.
How often should you have a massage?
Preferably every two to three weeks, by which time enough time has passed for the body to have adapted to the massage, and not so long that the effect of the massage has returned to what it was before the treatment.
