Upgraded Spring-Themed Employee Wellness Program Launched by Health Enhancement Systems

MIDLAND, Mich. - March 22, 2014 - PRLog -- Persistent storms, cold temps, and an overall lack of sunlight leave individuals ready to shake off the winter blahs and move into a season of rejuvenation. To engage participants in an exciting, spring-focused employee wellness campaign, Health Enhancement Systems has updated Spring Into Motion (www.hesonline.com/sim). It still has easy tracking, informative health tips and articles, a friendly team competition, and 200+ healthy recipes. But it’s been enhanced with an inspiring trail where participants have vivid descriptions and images of international spring events when they log activity, a fun game to encourage daily log-ins, interactive message board, individual leaderboard, buddy feature, mobile compatibility, and Fitbit® option.

“Giving participants challenging goals, fun themes, and social connections is the key to consistent engagement and healthy results,” notes Dean Witherspoon, President and founder of Health Enhancement Systems. “Spring Into Motion offers all these elements. As a result, employees -- from exercise novices to fitness enthusiasts -- can enjoy the increased energy and improved health/quality of life from an active lifestyle.” A BioMed Central Public Health study (www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2458/12/624) is one of many illustrating this correlation. Through Spring Into Motion, employers and works alike can realize the benefits of better health.
