Cumberland has an employee wellness program where we host on-site education sessions with guest speakers each month.  Topics range from How to Read a Food Label to Financial Awareness: Budgeting 101 to Stress Management and more.

This month, Dr. Scott Dunaway joined us to speak about body movement and injury prevention.  He used several easily accessible tools and walked through several exercises and stretches for the neck, shoulders and back. Dr. Dunaway spends much of his time educating his clients and followers on how the body moves and how to get more out of it.

Here are several video examples of drills he walked us through.
