MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HealthFitness, the leading provider of health management and corporate fitness solutions, and Fusionetics, a global provider of evidence-based performance healthcare solutions, today announced a partnership designed to help employees move smarter, more efficiently and healthier, reducing musculoskeletal injuries.
Initially designed for elite athletes, Fusionetics® delivers effective solutions to prevent and reduce injuries, decrease pain and optimize employee health.
“Our partnership with Fusionetics allows us to provide movement efficiency solutions to our clients as part of our overall mission to improve the health and well-being of the people we serve,” says Sean McManamy, senior vice president, strategy and product, HealthFitness. “We understand that movement matters, yet we often are unaware of muscular imbalances that can lead to pain, injury and decreased movement functionality. Providing movement efficiency testing to our clients, in partnership with Fusionetics, helps employees prevent injury, decrease pain and speed their recovery.”
“Regardless of the setting, Fusionetics enables employees to perform work activities in a more effective and safe manner that helps them positively and safely contribute to their organizations,” says Fusionetics Chief Operations Officer Ben Tucker. “We’ve found employees experience reduced fatigue, injuries and workers’ compensation claims and absenteeism related to injury.”
Using the Fusionetics science-driven approach and technology, HealthFitness associates who provide participants with hands-on help are able to assess an employee’s movement and efficiency, which includes mobility and stability. This assessment helps identify muscular deficits and imbalances, which can predispose an individual to a higher risk of injury. To help measure results, clients receive cumulative participant reporting on status and progress.
