Health – tag

Health, both physical and mental, is key for us – at work and beyond. Under this tag, you’ll find articles on ergonomics at the computer, back pain prevention, movement routines, mental balance, and nutrition. We collaborate with experts in physiotherapy and psychology to bring practical advice that you can use immediately. We also share experiences from our wellbeing programs – diagnostics, msgKvapky krvi, sports challenges, and hiking. To us, health is not just about physical fitness, but also psychological well-being and conscious choices throughout the day. At msg life Slovakia, we believe health and work performance go hand in hand – and that prevention is always better than cure. If you care about yourself, you’ll find plenty of useful tips and inspiration here.
