| "Corporate
wellness, once perceived as a warm
and fuzzy feel-good practice, is now
considered a bottom line driver, according
to industry experts."

| According
to a study published by the American
Journal of Health Promotions,
for every $1 spent on wellness programs,
employers can expect a return of $2.30

costs
