Core Values - The 20 Minute Back Solution

Back injuries affect over 1 million people per year and cost business between 50 and 100 Billion dollars a year in total healthcare costs. And chances are your business is no different.

The reasons for back injuries are many:

1. Poor lifting technique;
2. Poor physical conditioning;
3. Wear and tear on the body:
4. Weak abdominals and shortened hamstrings;
5. Poor working conditions;
6. Cumulative Trauma Disorders

Whatever the reason if you have had a back injury personally or someone at your business has had one you know how bad these injuries can be. Typcially the first injury will result in a 7-10 day lost time injury. Any future injuries can result in 30 plus days of lost time injury; either way these injuries are costing you money and reducing a productive workforce and stealing away year end profits.

But thanks to the science of exercise Total Healthcare Fitness has the answer to your back injury problems. With the development of our highly acclaimed program, Core Values - The 20 Minute Back Solution you now have the tools and resources necessary to reduce lost time injuries and workman comp claims beginning in as little as 3 weeks.

Unlike other programs, the Core Values program is totally proactive. We don't work with employees "after" they get hurt; our mission is to work with them to prevent them from possible injury and that is where you benefit.

The program is totally interactive with the employees at the job site; we come to you. After our initial observation and assessment phase of the department we review, we write up our findings and how we feel we can benefit your workforce with our program. Then we implement an onsite Industrial Strength Training program that is designed to address muscular weaknesses and imbalances that contribute to back injuries. In as little as 3 weeks you and your employees are going to be able to tell a big difference and at the end of the year your bottom line profits will increase as well.

The Core Values 20 Minute Back Solution is not just an exercise program though. There is a strong educational component involved as well. Once you have given us the green light to advance with the program there is a one hour lecture with the employees to aquaint them with the program and what we are going to accomplish in our 8 weeks.

Each employee is given our Core Values Operations Manual which includes statistical information, why back injuries occur, color photos of proper and improper lifting techniques and the award winning 5 Step Back Solution by Dr. Sal Arria, co-founder of the International Sports Sciences Association.

In order to reinforce what each employee is learning there is an overview at the end of each chapter and a quiz. One quiz is required to be done each week, turned in to their shift supervisor then to us. Although the quiz is open book the employee will have to read the material in order to find the answers thus insuring they are reading the course materials.

The cost of the program includes everything you need to get started, including the exercise equipment necessary for the program. And what kind of equipment will you need? How about something very unconventional yet extremely cost effective? The kind of equipment we use, which will be yours to keep is as follows (how many pieces depends on how many employees will use the program at one time):

1. Inflatable stability balls with a 2,000 lb burst capacity:
2. Weighted Core Balls with handles ranging from 6lbs up to 10lbs;
3. High break resistance Versa Loop rubber bands;
4. Hamstring stretching straps;
5. Padded floor mats;

There is no need for big expensive commercial exercise equipment and now there is no need to wait after an employee gets hurt to send them to a doctor or physical therapist. With the Core Values 20 Minute Back Solution our goal is to reduce back injuries and keep the employees working while reducing lost time injury health care costs and workman comp claims.
