Recently, Hirsch’s Ballito held their monthly business networking morning with guest speaker, Lianca Dookran, a physiotherapist based in both Ballito and Salt Rock, whose passion lies in orthopaedics. Her focus for the morning was about productivity in the workplace, and how it can be improved. Lianca gave some tips on what an office space should consist of , and how small changes could benefit staff – Mostly those who sit at a desk for most part of the day.
Lianca was assisted by Melanie Coetzee who is a biokineticist and who recently started up a practice in Ballito. Commented Hirsch’s Danielle Dalton “Melanie showed us a few basic exercises which we could use in the work place, to keep us comfortable and well energized. Melanie told us that they often see patients who battle with aches and pains caused by the incorrect posture at an office desk, so they demonstrated how one should sit at the office. It was fascinating, and should change a lot of perceptions on how to spend eight hours productively, from a physical perspective, in the office.”
