FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Mindy Lederman TimeOut On-Site Massage MENLO PARK, Calif., July 8, 1999 TimeOut, a leading provider of on-site massage clinics and wellness events, announced today that it is offering LifeWorks Productivity Enhancement Workshops to Bay area businesses. TimeOut addresses both emotional and physical stress by offering an educational presentation geared toward peak performance, which can be tailored for each individual company, combined with professional massage therapy. Most recently, TimeOut conducted a LifeWorks workshop
for Hewlett-Packard. At this particular workshop, entitled, "Creating
a Vision for Your Future", TimeOut teamed with Kimberly
Wiefling, president of The Wiefling Group. Wiefling conducted an
interactive presentation based upon a peak-performance paradigm,
which focused on positive thinking methodologies including reframing
situations by looking at facts and considering positive alternatives,
defining and overcoming fears, and goal-setting. TimeOut delivers corporations a distinct competitive edge by enhancing the performance of its most valuable asset-their employees. Studies have shown that happy, healthy employees contribute more to a company. According to Newsweek Magazine, scientists have found that massage reduces blood pressure, boosts the immune system, dampens harmful stress hormones and raises levels of mood-elevating brain chemicals such as seratonin. As a result, on-site massage has moved from an occasional indulgence to a mandatory element of Silicon Valley life. Theresa Blythe of Hewlett-Packard Laboratories said, "TimeOut's services have had immediate and lasting positive results on our employees performance. By increasing energy levels and mental clarity, our employees feel better, perform better, and have greater job satisfaction." According to Mindy Lederman, co-founder of TimeOut, "We're seeing an increase in what we've termed values-based businesses. These businesses understand that ensuring the health and well being of their staff directly impacts the company's bottom line. Hewlett-Packard is an excellent example of this kind of trendsetting organization. The company has a track record of taking good care of their employees-and it shows in their overall success." At an upcoming LifeWorks workshop for First Republic Bank, TimeOut will partner with Linda L. Prout, MS, who brings 18 years of experience in nutrition therapy with past audiences including Coopers & Lybrand, Lockheed, and PG&E. Prout's, LifeShift program presentation details how to effectively increase one's energy level by implementing a program of eating the right energizing foods and nutrients, including vitamin and mineral supplements, and daily exercise. Says Prout, "Incorporating these tools to boost energy can make a dramatic difference in people's lives."Headquartered in Menlo Park, Calif., TimeOut On-Site
