4 Ways Corporate Retreats Boost Business

Sometimes it’s good to get the team out of the office and into a fresh, new environment. An environment, say, like Shepherd’s Pasture (https://shepherdspasture.com/), a multi-use retreat center (and yes, a corporate retreat center) in the magical East Texas town of Jefferson.

Check out these highlights from an article over at Chron Small Business (https://smallbusiness.chron.com/company-retreats-good-productivity-37136.html) about how corporate retreats can really boost your company morale and improve productivity.
  1. Small business owners can improve productivity by investing in a company retreat. Simply getting away from the stressful atmosphere of the workplace can do a world of good. Your employees can work only so hard before cracking. When they return, their stress levels will be lower, meaning they’ll have the energy to work as hard as necessary without sacrificing quality.
  2. Retreats that include team activities build camaraderie, training you and your workers to identify and incorporate the personal strengths of individuals to achieve group goals. The cooperative skills gained at a retreat will improve the performance of your workforce by showing employees how to work together effectively.
  3. Company retreats remove workers from their typical contexts, revitalizing them and inspiring them to take pride in their work again.
  4. When workers relax, they communicate better, both with you and each other. Opening lines of communication builds connections, spurring conversations that might not have happened otherwise, allowing employees to gain new perspectives on the business.

Now a little bit about Shepherd’s Pasture:
Shepherd’s Pasture is a Christian Retreat and Conference Center set on 24 beautiful acres of whispering piney woods, streams, trails and pasture land in East Texas.
We welcome Church Groups, Youth Groups, Individuals and our Military and their families and military supporters alike.

Concerning Woodlands Dog Boarding

If you live in The Woodlands, Spring, Shenandoah, or Conroe, and have dogs, you need our Woodlands Dog Daycare from time to time. It’s a simple fact of life. We all love to take our fur babies places, but they can’t go everywhere. And when they can’t, let us pamper and love on them while you do your thing.

Now, let’s see what Wikipedia says dog daycare is all about:
Dog daycare, often known as "doggy daycare", refers to a short-term daytime care for dogs. It fills a niche between multi-day kennel boarding and pet sitting, where the sitter comes to the pet's home. It shares many similarities with a regular daycare for children, with the exception being that a dog daycare is for canines. The two share the same philosophy. Parents, or in the case of the dog daycare, owners, have a busy schedule and the often prolonged hours at work drastically reduce the time that could be spent with their children or pets.
Connect with Woodlands Doggie Village (https://woodlandsdogboarding.com/) each time your precious pup needs Woodlands dog daycare or long-term Woodlands dog boarding. Your dog will give us five woofs out of five for sure!

Dallas Auto Injury Pain Management Tips

Thousands of car wrecks happen everyday. That’s not meant to alarm you, it’s just stating a fact. And while we’re talking about facts, it’s a fact that most accidents come with injuries, ranging from a little bit of pain to things that need full blown surgery. The constant commercials will tell you that you need to call an attorney when you get in a wreck. That’s wrong. You need to call a doctor first, then a lawyer. Health before money because you can’t spend that money if you’re laid up in a hospital bed because you chased paper before a physician.
And speaking of physicians, the Dallas pain management leaders at Pegasus Spine & Joint Institute (https://www.pegasuspain.com) have all the latest methods of pain relief therapy such as advanced PRP therapy in Dallas and minimally invasive steroid injections that your auto accident injuries may call for. Remember that your injury is unique and therefore your specific diagnosis and pain management will be as well. Consult with the doctors at Pegasus for more info about your injuries.
Meantime, let Wikipedia refresh everyone’s memory about what exactly “pain management” is:
Pain management, pain medicine, pain control or algiatry, is a branch of medicine employing an interdisciplinary approach for easing the suffering and improving the quality of life of those living with chronic pain. The typical pain management team includes medical practitioners, pharmacists, clinical psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, physician assistants, nurses. The team may also include other mental health specialists and massage therapists. Pain sometimes resolves promptly once the underlying trauma or pathology has healed, and is treated by one practitioner, with drugs such as analgesics and (occasionally) anxiolytics. Effective management of chronic (long-term) pain, however, frequently requires the coordinated efforts of the pain management team. Effective pain management does not mean total eradication of all pain.
Medicine treats injuries and diseases to support and speed healing, and it treats distressing symptoms such as pain to relieve suffering during treatment, healing, and dying. When a painful injury or pathology is resistant to treatment and persists, when pain persists after the injury or pathology has healed, and when medical science cannot identify the cause of pain, the task of medicine is to relieve suffering. Treatment approaches to chronic pain include pharmacological measures, such as analgesics, antidepressants and anticonvulsants, interventional procedures, physical therapy, physical exercise, application of ice and/or heat, and psychological measures, such as biofeedback and cognitive behavioral therapy.
So there you have it. Now that we’re all caught up on what pain management is, it’s time to move forward with your pain management treatment. Discuss great alternative treatments for pain relief such as the Dallas regenerative medicine options Pegasus Joint and Spine Institute has when you connect with them.
