WELLNESS SESSIONS
in Southampton & Fareham
BY LIFE EFFECT
Almost everything your team has been told about posture, stress and back pain is wrong. In as little as 30 minutes showing them why.
At your office/space. We bring everything, you just need a room.
120+ sessions delivered to teams across Hampshire
You've run wellbeing sessions before. How did the turnout go?
We have found over the years, that most people who organise wellbeing workshops in Hampshire describe the same thing: the same handful of faces every time. The people who'd benefit most quietly stay at their desks (or don’t come in for it). The session gets polite feedback, and six weeks later nobody can tell you what was in it.
That isn't a failure of effort. It's usually a failure of format. In other words: a talk people sit through rather than take part in and take on board.
Ours is built the other way round. Your team will be on their feet inside ten minutes, testing something about their own body they've never tested before. It's the part everyone talks about afterwards, and it's why the sceptics stay in the room!
Poor employee health is estimated to cost the UK economy £138bn a year in lost productivity.
The importance of a Wellness Session, and why you should book one 👇
Employees & Peers are the most valuable asset, but they can also be the biggest challenge.
In 2025, an estimated 148.8 million working days were lost because of sickness or injury across the UK - average of 4.4 days per worker. Musculoskeletal problems accounted for around 15% of all sickness absences.

While minor illnesses (like colds or flu) occur more frequently, Musculoskeletal problems represent a deep structural challenge for persistent, long-term disruption in the workplace and quality of life.
What actually happens

*Deliverables depend on the group type, size and individual needs. Can be more or less, but we also aim to tailor each talk to give the most value possible to each group!
The answers to questions about your own body that most people never think to ask.
Four questions we answer that your team won't have heard before
Why do two people under identical stress end up with completely different health outcomes? There's a large, well-known study on this. The finding surprises every room we've ever put it in front of.
What can our test(s) tell you that a wellbeing survey can't? We run them live! Everyone takes part, it's over in under a minute, and the research behind it is usually the moment the room goes quiet.
Why doesn't buying better chairs fix people's backs? The standard advice about "perfect posture" is failing, but not for the reason you'll have read online. The answer changes how a team thinks about sitting.
Why doesn't your body switch out of stress mode once the stressful moment has passed? This is the one people come up and ask about afterwards!
Who and where?
Office and desk-based teams: for people who sit for long stretches and have already tried the ergonomic fixes.
Warehouse, manual and trade teams: for people who lift, carry and stand all day, where the session can focus on load, movement and recovery.
Schools and education: we've delivered sessions at Barton Peveril (and others), where staff spend the day switching between standing, sitting and moving.
Healthcare and public sector: for teams on their feet through long shifts.
Community groups, networks and member organisations: we run these outside workplaces too. If you want to learn more about your body, let’s talk!
From our Locks Heath clinic we regularly visit teams at Solent Business Park and Whiteley, Segensworth, Fareham town centre, Park Gate, Titchfield and Portchester.
From our Southampton clinic we cover the city centre, Ocean Village, Southampton Science Park and Chilworth, Bitterne, Eastleigh and the wider M27 corridor.
Somewhere not on the list? Ask, and if you're in Hampshire, we will happily discuss.
What previous hosts had to say:
Who delivers your session
Your session is delivered by one of our very own Clinic Managers, not an external speaker.
Life Effect has two clinics, in Southampton and Locks Heath, with a team of more than ten chiropractors. Our Clinic Managers have over fifteen years of combined experience and have delivered many of these sessions to teams across Hampshire.
Alongside our work with local businesses, we've supported teams at Balfour Beatty Living Places and B&Q Headquarters, professional footballers, Olympic gold medallist sailors, and former Mayors of Hampshire.
That being said, we are confident we can deliver a session that is both insightful, valuable and actionable for you and your team(s).
