Some countries noteably Denmark* have been addressing this
problem for years. Occupational health services have worked closely with
employers to provide a flexible approach to reduction of stress and work
related illness. As a result many firms now involve complementary
therapists in the maintenance of well-being amongst their workforce.
Reflexology has proved very popular in this field.
*Odense Post Office in Denmark which has employed a
full-time reflexologist since 1990 reports saving around £100,000 a year
due to a 13.3% reduction in sickness & absenteeism.
