HEALTH CENTER AT WELLCOM

Holistic health promotion under one roof

We introduce ourselves

The physiotherapy and sports therapy center in Großkrotzenburg was founded in September 2003. The center is the specialist in the region for the rehabilitation of chronic illnesses and acute injuries in the orthopedic, surgical and neurological fields, in terms of prevention, health promotion and performance diagnostics, as well as corporate health promotion.
In keeping with the goals of the PSZ, namely the holistic and interdisciplinary care and treatment of members and patients, the 600 square meter Wellcom health center is intended to offer employees at the Hanau-Wolfgang location an optimal setting to ensure health, fitness and well-being.

concept

The concept envisages a four-part division of the health center's fields of activity according to the various levels of action that are necessary for holistic health promotion: training, prevention, therapy and care. The good news is that your employer also pays!
OUR SERVICES

The training area

The training area is the core of the health center. Members can do health-oriented training here on a voluntary basis. This area includes a range of equipment consisting of conventional sequence training equipment and a computer-assisted training circuit, as well as free weights for strengthening large and small muscle groups, as well as a small equipment area for targeted functional and stabilization training. The training area also includes an IronQube or a functional area for training with your own body weight.
In this way, the health center combines tried and tested methods with new, innovative trends to inspire employees to take up sports and live an active lifestyle.
The equipment can be used "paper-free", i.e. planning, documentation and control of the training are carried out digitally using your own company ID card.
For employees who prefer to see training as a joint event, special group courses are offered in addition to the classic courses. These are available in small groups of 4-8 people who are supervised in the equipment area rather than in the classroom.
In the endurance area, cardio equipment such as bicycle ergometers and crosswalkers are used.
The training area is supervised by expert staff who, among other things, instruct you on how to use the equipment, draw up training plans, assist you with the exercises and act as a contact person for all training and health-related questions.

TRAINING

The area of therapy

In addition to training, the health center also offers a wide range of therapy on its premises, more specifically physiotherapy and physical therapy. Specialized in traumatological, orthopedic and surgical therapy, employees can have almost all major musculoskeletal complaints and illnesses treated by trained physiotherapists and massage therapists. In one of the three cabins, at 25-minute intervals, the most important therapeutic measures for pain in the active and passive musculoskeletal system, back and disc problems, jaw joint dysfunction, knee and hip joint problems, but also after accidents involving passive or active structures (e.g. shoulder dislocation, ankle sprain, partial or torn cruciate ligament, meniscus problems) can be applied. This includes physiotherapy, manual therapy, classic massage therapy, connective tissue massage, lymphatic drainage, heat and cold therapy. Thanks to the proximity to the training area and the collaboration with the specialists in sports and exercise therapy, even more complex forms of therapy such as the "combined medicinal product prescription" ("D1") or "physiotherapy on the device" ("KGG") can be carried out without any problems. In order to offer high-quality therapy, we see good therapist training as the primary basis. Classic quality features of a physiotherapy practice, such as no unnecessary changes of therapist, detailed initial findings, discussion of the examination results, as well as therapeutic therapy course prognosis and final report, are our top priority in everyday practice. Of course, these points should also become an important pillar of the physiotherapy practice in the health center.
PHYSICAL THERAPY

The area of prevention

Although the "voluntary training" in the health center already counts as prevention, we see the focus of this area in the subsidized prevention and health courses. The basis for the subsidy is the so-called "prevention paragraph" (§20 SGB V). Here, the most important risk and action areas (lack of exercise, exercise and posture, obesity, cardiovascular diseases) are counteracted in a structured and controlled manner in the group. Prevention courses differ from classic fitness and gymnastics courses in four points: the qualifications of the course leaders, the fixed group, the set number of course units and the chronologically successive course structure with practical as well as theoretical elements.
The health insurance companies subsidize participation in these courses 1-2 times a year with up to 100% of the course fee if the participant has attended at least 80% of the course dates. The offer to participate in the prevention courses is aimed exclusively at members of the health center and is included in their membership fee, so no separate course fee is charged. By receiving the health insurance subsidy, the annual studio fee can be significantly reduced. This will certainly provide additional financial motivation for some employees to become members of the health center.
In addition, concrete workplace-related measures are another focus of the prevention area. The aim is to improve the health and well-being of employees through behavioral and situational prevention in the workplace and also to exploit their full potential. The target group here is primarily employees who, due to socio-demographic circumstances, would not be adequately addressed by the services offered by a health center and who can best be reached at their workplace.
Starting from the health center, measures such as active breaks, back school at the workplace, ergonomic checks, computer workstation programs or other specific exercise training programs can be carried out generally or also target group-specific (trainees, older employees, shift workers, etc.).
COURSES

The care area

Holistic, company health promotion, manifested in the health center, involves all parties involved in this process. Company health promotion (CHP) in itself is only one part of the overall company health management (CHM) of the individual companies. Other areas are company health protection (CHS) with the company medical service as well as those responsible for company reintegration (CHM) and employee counseling. These parties can work together optimally in a health center and the existing premises and support each other in caring for employees. In concrete terms, this could mean, for example, that regular health checks can be carried out by the company doctor, who is supported by the team of trainers and therapists. The premises, in particular the course room, can be used by employee support for coaching and seminars (e.g. burnout prevention, stress management, etc.). But the reintegration of sick or injured employees can also be carried out more effectively with the help of interdisciplinary cooperation. The advantages are cross-cutting interfaces between the parties and targeted therapy measures by the same staff for the individual employee. The people involved in the rehabilitation and reintegration process can also work together directly, communicate with each other and take the respective conditions in the workplace into account. This enables the employee to be reintegrated more quickly and safely. An attractive ambience, the inviting entrance and reception area, a tidy training area and functional but comfortable changing rooms and sanitary facilities make the health center a place where employees of all ages and constitutions enjoy using their free time to promote their health.
