The Battle of Workplace Comfort
Are you struggling to create a more comfortable workplace? So many companies invest time and money into this, only to find themselves right back where they started.
Maybe you’ve tried hiring consultants, and their cookie-cutter solutions bring quick wins, but before long, the complaints resurface.
Or perhaps you’ve tried to come up with your own solutions, only to realize it’s more complicated than you thought.
Have you tried quick fixes?
Persistent discomfort can
drain energy
lower morale
and hinder performance
Many companies invest in new chairs or standing desks, but those don’t address the specific needs of each employee.
Have you asked your employees what they really need so your company can create a tailored plan? If you haven’t, the discomfort will continue to linger, productivity will drop, and employees will feel unnoticed.
Ultimately, you’ll experience higher turnover and difficulty retaining top talent.
Transform Your Workplace Experience
Imagine a workspace where discomfort and frustration are replaced with engagement and productivity. By tailoring solutions and involving everyone, you can transform any environment—office or home—into a hub of well-being and efficiency. Every improvement boosts satisfaction and productivity, enhancing the work experience for all.

Kris
“Krys is a breath of fresh air! She brought joy and a lot of ergonomics expertise to my work area! I am sitting in my adjusted chair and typing away! It was a great experience after meeting her, I have been enlightened on how to get the best results as I work on the computer. She was quite amazing! Thank You!”
Arvia
Absolutely phenomenal, Krys. This is easily the best ergonomics evaluation and report I have ever seen. There is so much value here and I hope to promote your work more throughout my client network in the future.
Lance, CEO
Krys was able to understand my musculoskeletal issues and tailor my home office to fit me. Due to pain, I often move to my bed or the kitchen to work and these locations were also modified. I now feel like I have an optimal posture wherever I work and a better understanding of how I can best position myself in many situations to keep my discomfort low. Adjusting my sitting position for the car has been a big change I didn’t know I needed.
Nina, Marketing Director
This is such a great service! Krys re-organized my current office set up and recommended office equipment that increased my comfort and improved the ease of my work flow. The chair she recommended has significantly reduced my end-of-day neck and back strain.
Malery, Attorney
I enjoyed a session where my home office, kitchen workspace and car positions were assessed. My general aches and pains have reduced, I have new break-time exercises to help support good posture and my car set up is amazing. I get severe back pain from long car rides and the adjustments made to my seat have been worth their weight in gold!
Max, CEO

Krys Hines
Hi! I’m Krys! I’ve always been passionate about movement and how the body works, which led me to pursue a degree in Kinesiology and psychology, followed by earning my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Over the years, I’ve worked in orthopedic clinics, industrial settings, and corporate environments, helping a wide range of people—from athletes to seniors—overcome pain and prevent injuries through customized ergonomic programs. My journey involved personal challenges too. Years of report writing led to physical misalignment, and when I returned to High-Intensity Interval Training to get back in shape, I tore my rotator cuff while exercising. It was a real wake-up call to the impact of my work habits.
This inspired me to focus on proactive ergonomic education. My mission is to help people feel empowered in their workspaces, whether at home or in the office, by preventing discomfort and enhancing their overall quality of life to focus on what truly matters, feeling their best, and boosting productivity. We’ll create a customized plan that addresses your unique needs, helping you and your team stay healthy, comfortable, and efficient in any workspace.
