Warm Up.

Warm-Up programmes are a valuable component of an effective injury prevention strategy. For minimal time investment they provide proven benefits in reducing strain-sprain injuries.
At Provention we believe warm-up programmes need to:
  • Be dynamic and move all the major joints and muscles.
  • Be specific to the activities individuals are doing during their day.
  • Change often to maintain attention and prevent boredom.
  • Takes less than 5 minutes.
  • Re-enforce the safe movement principles learnt in manual handling training.
  • Be done anywhere without the need for equipment.
  • Have clear instructions to ensure no one is injured.

FIRST MOVE

Office.

First Move Office is an interactive programme that equips individuals with the practical knowledge and confidence to self manage their own physical wellbeing at their workstation.

The programme covers at work and working from home environments.

First Move Office may be delivered by a Provention trainer, train-trainers or as an online programme.
First Move Office is not your traditional ‘sit up straight’ instruction. It focuses on how to obtain comfortable and supported postures at the workstation, alongside emphasising the importance of regular movement to address the consequences of stationary postures.

Like all First Move programmes it promotes the principles of the physically intelligence – how to listen to the bodies early warning signs and make practical changes to avoid strain and injury and improve physical wellbeing.
