What the employees & HR lead said
“We tried lunch-and-learn wellness before. Nothing stuck. Pro Physio’s programme worked because the 1-on-1 audit made every employee accountable for their own desk. Sick-leave dropped, NPS jumped 50 points.”
“ODI was 34 (moderate) before I even realised I was disabled. In 12 weeks with weekly workshops plus one home visit, it dropped to 10. Back to weekend cricket for the first time in 3 years.”
“The most useful part wasn’t the exercises — it was fixing my desk. Monitor height was 4 inches too low. Chair depth was wrong. That 15-minute audit was worth the entire quarter.”
