Reducing Chronic Pain for Employees on Their Feet - Retail Case Study

When it Hurts to Stand
Michelle is a Pharmacist at one of the largest pharmacy store chains in America. Working 7–12 hour shifts on her feet, she began to experience chronic knee pain 2 years ago. She was in so much pain that she no longer found pleasure in activities she enjoyed, such as hiking, and began to avoid them. As her days began to consist almost entirely of work and sitting on her couch, it took an emotional toll.
