“Wellness”
is a hot topic in business. Many corporations are
developing programs to increase wellness in their
workforce. The result? Reduced medical costs and lost
work, benefiting both the corporation and the employees. Wellness is all about making healthy lifestyle choices!
As part of
the WorkWell Healthy Workplace Designation program held in
partnership with the Thurston County Health Department, the
Chamber will be hosting FREE Wellness Workshops presented by Dr.
Rick Calcara.
Dr. Calcara
is an Olympia wellness expert, specializing in chiropractic,
with over 21 years in practice. He has a wealth of
information on improving your quality of life and health
through wise choices in lifestyle, both at home and the
workplace. |
