Thanks to a Resident Wellness Fund raised by 看片视频鈥檚 MDCM Class of 2000, in memory of Catherine Grenier鈥檚 husband Ray Ko (MDCM 鈥�97), and generously donated to 看片视频鈥檚 PGME Office with the aim to support the health and well-being of 看片视频 Residents, the Office of Medical Learner Affairs launched a wellness project involving the purchase and installation of a few massage chairs and spin bikes in resident lounges that accommodate large numbers of residents/fellows.
Considering the well-documented positive effects of muscle relaxation and moderate exercise on stress levels and associated productivity levels, as well as the inherent challenge residents face in finding time to exercise or simply relax, our aim is to help promote HEALTH BREAKS while at work by offering easy access to high-end equipment designed for quick and effective physical and mental respites.
Please find below all locations currently hosting a massage chair and/or spin bike, and pay a visit! Do not hesitate to take a spin or relax quietly for a few moments: you will immediately feel better and you will also be setting a healthy example for others around you.
It is not simply 鈥淥K鈥� to take a break; it is ESSENTIAL to your well-being!
With sincere gratitude to our generous donors!
