Weight Loss Challenge Motivates Employees at The Virginia Spine Institute to Achieve a Healthier Lifestyle
The Virginia Spine Institute is proud to launch their organization-wide 13-week weight loss challenge in an effort to promote a healthy lifestyle change amongst their employees and to confirm that they practice what they tell their patients. Plenty of resources and group exercise classes will be available throughout the program. Incentives include a large cash pot of over $1,000 to be split between the top three individuals, five $100 cash prizes raffled off to those who lose at least one pound per week, reduced prices on nutrition counseling and personal training sessions, as well as a weekly drawing for free massage therapy sessions.
As an organization committed to wellness, The Virginia Spine Institute believes that weight loss and exercise are the best preventative healthcare measures one can take and has developed this program to encourage its employees to achieve a healthier lifestyle. “Personal health can be significantly influenced by his or her weight and fitness. The best preventative medicine is proper fitness combined with a healthy diet. Many health issues can be avoided or reversed through this approach. Our organization strongly believes in practicing what we preach to all of our patients, which is why we have implemented this weight loss challenge. We hope to inspire others to take action and obtain a healthier and happier life,” said Thomas C. Schuler, M.D., CEO of The Virginia Spine Institute.
