Around 2/3 of employees suffer frequently or occasionally from back or neck pain.
The most common causes are desk work with poor ergonomics & too little movement or weak muscles. Despite the high prevalence, only 15% take sick leave. A high number of unreported cases continue to work with less concentration and less resilience. Very few people have the time to take the usual route of attending time-consuming exercise courses at health centers or physiotherapists.
Low-threshold course programs for everyday working life
Employees can address their respective complaints at work through various courses. In 3 daily sessions with 3 exercises each, all causes are specifically addressed within two weeks.
The sessions follow a health science treatment approach and build on each other. They are suitable for beginners and only take a few minutes a day.
Carried out once a year, "Isa - trainer" keeps the spine and muscles fit and prevents further complaints - without any additional time expenditure.

The decisive factor for effectiveness is that the application is actually used. This is where many digital approaches fail. Isa is different...
Always present: Isa simply runs alongside without you having to pick up your smartphone first.
Plug and Play: Put it down, switch it on, it runs. No initialisation effort.
Focus on health: Isa does not mix with work content on the PC or private distractions of the smartphone.
Precise detection: The highly accurate sensor enables a competent assessment of health behaviour.
Individual: Based on the actual health burden, Isa can provide holistic and competent guidance.
Data security: Due to the closed system, there are no security gaps.
Please let the following questions run through your mind:
If your smartphone is on your desk all day and a health app is continuously communicating with you, would you let private apps distract you from work?
Do you agree that your smartphone or webcam on your PC (both connected to the internet) is watching you via camera throughout your working day?
What do you think about more pop-ups on your PC while you work?
A high dependence on smartphones has been proven to have a negative impact on mental and physical health as well as cognitive performance. Doesn't a health app that motivates you to continuously use your smartphone therefore represent a contradiction?
These classical approaches are important to sensitise and train employees for health in the workplace. However, they are only selective measures that take place outside the working day. As a result, they have limited impact on people's behaviour during their long hours in the office.
In contrast, Isa accompanies employees over a longer period of time and is constantly available to contribute individually to healthy behaviour. This tackles the problem from the ground up. On the one hand, Isa helps to prevent health risks from the very beginning. On the other hand, the long-term accompaniment enables employees to develop and consolidate new healthy behaviours
Absolutely! It is one of the core functionalities of Isa to guarantee the optimal use of a height-adjustable desk. This feature can be easily switched on or off in Isa's settings, depending on the availability of a height-adjustable desk.
Yes, we work with various health insurance companies that use Isa as part of their prevention and health promotion services in accordance with §20 SGB V in companies. However, this only takes place after individual consultation with the respective health insurance companies.
We attach great importance to you being able to work in the best possible way! The Isa's interaction concept is very discreet, intuitive and can be adjusted individually. However, if Isa detects a major health burden during your work, you will be interrupted from time to time. However, this is done for the good of your health and thus serves your long-term performance.
No. The sensor only creates an anonymous 3D silhouette of the person at the desk. This does not make it possible to identify people.
Isa ensures that you still feel good after a long day at work. In addition, Isa helps you prevent musculoskeletal disorders (e.g. back pain) and serious long-term diseases such as diabetes.
Enough to experience a noticeable health benefit. On the other hand, not so many that you are distracted from your work. Most importantly, Isa adapts to your personal habits and fades further and further into the background with healthy behaviour.
Of course. You benefit from constant new functions and programmes that are made available to you.
Yes. All functions can be switched on and off or set individually.
No, Isa is not a medical device.
It is important to carry out regular exercise at work to keep the body fit and healthy. This measure is one of the workplace health promotion. Many people spend the majority of their day sitting down, which can lead to tension and poor posture. You can counteract this by specifically mobilising and strengthening different parts of the body such as the legs, feet, hands, arms, back and neck. Breaks in movement serve to promote coordination and balance and release tension in the body.
It is important to integrate movement exercises into your daily routine, especially if you have to work sitting in an unergonomic chair for long periods of time. The lack of movement is very likely to lead to back and neck problems. This in turn can lead to unproductivity, a drop in performance and even psychological problems. problems or the inability to work. By regularly stretching and strengthening your muscles, you can counteract fatigue, poor posture and discomfort.
If you already suffer from back or neck problems, targeted movement exercises in the form of a course programme will help to minimise the symptoms.
Research shows that office workers spend up to 7 hours a day sitting. However, the human body is not made for this. According to a survey by MySports and YouGov Germany, 38% of participants don't exercise because they don't have time due to overtime, family or long commutes. A further 37% stated that they are exhausted after work and 45% lack the motivation to exercise.
