LtCol Charlie Brown The Marine Corps system of identifying weaknesses early on and providing remedial exercises / stretches sounds more effective than having doctors in the work place.

Lt Col Charlie Brown
This is an excellent way to 1. cut down on travel time 2. See people quickly before acute problems become chronic 3. see if there are problems/hazards that can be identified and corrected/mediated before they cause real health issues
