Gunpo City Corporation conducted a 'one-on-one customized musculoskeletal therapy' program for office workers on September 7 and 8 to prevent musculoskeletal disorders.
According to the corporation, the program was designed to assess the physical strain and postural imbalances commonly experienced by office workers who spend long hours on computers, providing tailored management methods based on individual characteristics.
Participants underwent 3D body analysis to evaluate their posture and physical balance, followed by personalized treatments such as fascia release therapy and corrective exercises based on the analysis results.
Notably, participants could access their analysis results via mobile devices, allowing them to directly observe their posture and identify areas needing attention.
Employees who took part in the program expressed positive feedback, noting the opportunity to objectively assess their usual posture and receive management tailored to their individual conditions.
Community members also shared favorable opinions about the public institution's initiative to support employee health management.
One resident stated, "Office workers often sit in front of computers all day, leading to discomfort in their necks, shoulders, and backs. A program that allows employees to check their physical condition and reflect on their daily habits could be beneficial for health management."
Another resident remarked, "The health of employees is ultimately linked to the quality of services provided to citizens, so it is meaningful for public institutions to take care of worker health. I hope this program continues beyond a one-time event."
Meanwhile, President Bae Jae-guk of the corporation emphasized, "Long hours of computer work for office workers can place a burden on the neck, shoulders, and back, making ongoing management essential."
He added, "We will continue to expand customized health promotion programs that reflect the work characteristics and health risk factors of our employees."
