Back pain, neck tension, joint stiffness and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are now among the most common issues in the workplace, especially for employees who spend long hours sitting in front of a screen. Through a holistic approach combining postural coaching, Pilates, yoga and chair massage, I support businesses in Sophia Antipolis, Antibes and across the French Riviera in preventing back pain and improving well-being at work.
Workplace back pain prevention in Sophia Antipolis
Relieve back pain at work
Improve posture, reduce tension, and prevent work-related pain
Prevent and relieve back pain linked to sedentary work, prolonged postures, and stress.
My goal: help your teams regain mobility, energy, comfort, and focus every day.
With postural coaching, employees learn to:

- improve their seated and standing posture,
- use their breathing more effectively,
- limit muscular compensation patterns,
- prevent pain linked to screen-based work.
Simple, practical tips are provided to immediately improve comfort at the workstation.
A comprehensive approach through postural coaching.
Because back pain is often linked to several factors: poor posture, stress, lack of mobility, muscle tension, or inefficient breathing. The sessions offered combine several complementary disciplines.
A holistic, personalized approach
Pilates: strengthen deep muscles and stabilize the back
Pilates is particularly effective in preventing lower back pain and postural issues.
Sessions help to:
- strengthen deep muscles,
- improve natural core stability,
- stabilize the spine,
- develop mobility,
- correct muscle imbalances,
- improve body awareness.
The work is adapted to all levels and accessible even to people who are not very sporty.
Yoga: mobility, breathing, and releasing tension
Yoga brings real balance between posture, breathing, and mental relaxation.
The exercises offered help to:
- release built-up tension,
- improve joint mobility,
- loosen the back and shoulders,
- learn to breathe more effectively,
- reduce physical and mental stress.
Better breathing also helps improve posture and nervous system recovery.
Chair massage: immediate relaxation and muscle recovery
Seated massage in the workplace offers a moment of deep recovery right at the workplace.
Inspired by acupressure techniques and Amma massage, it helps to:
- release muscle tension,
- relieve neck and back tension,
- mobilize the joints,
- boost the body’s energy (Qi / Chi),
- reduce stress,
- improve concentration and a sense of well-being.
Performed on an ergonomic chair and without oil, this massage is perfectly suited to a professional setting.
