Our
aim is to prepare a programme suited to the needs of the Company and its
workforce.
An
initial assessment of the workforce and discussion with the Company's
Management Team will enable the practitioners at the Carlton Clinic to
deliver the most appropriate format and level of care for that particular
working environment via our established corporate needs assessment programme.
The
Carlton Clinic will also advise on the most effective forum for the delivery
of the agreed programme, through small group practical and information
giving sessions. These will be arranged at times which will fit in with
the Company's normal work schedule on site, or if preferred outside facilities
can be provided.
Government
statistics average the daily company cost per employee off work at £150.
The Carlton Clinic can return most causes of time off work to the workplace
for less than this cost alone. All treatment, re-education, and advice
programs embarked on will be with the full liaison and continuing discretion
of the management/directors.
Osteopathy
has a growing bank of research and trial evidence demonstrating its effectiveness
in the workplace, in the NHS, against other treatments, and in GP surgeries
(copies available from The Carlton Clinic).
Corporations
who have invested in providing employee treatment have reduced their lost
work hours by up to 95% and saved many times their investment financially.
We
have a medically qualified consulting nutritionalist who uses food and
food supplements as medicines to treat a range of health problems from
weight loss and tiredness and the range of general health problems causing
lost work hours.
We
have a medically qualified acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner.
Acupuncture has been found to be particularly useful in a number of general
health and musculo skeletal problems causing lost work hours. Acupuncture
is often effective in stress reduction treatment.
Many
employees spend many hours on their feet. We have a state registered Chiropodist
of 45 years experience who is honorary Vice President of the Government
registering body for UK Chiropodists and Podiatrists, and we have one
of only a few Podiatric surgeons in the UK. Our "Footcare" team,
with our Osteopathy, can treat and advise on all skin, nail infections,
bio-mechanical and painful arch and structural foot problems.
We
have Doctor of Stress Management and Psychoanalysis/Hypnotherapy who can
form part of the Carlton Clinics reduction of the second biggest time
off work cause. (Government H&S Dept figures 1998) in your corporation.
Osteopathic treatment has research trails and a long repute of reducing
stress symptoms also.
