LivFit: A Comprehensive Wellness Programme by Oman Insurance Company

LivFit - A Comprehensive Wellness Programme by Oman Insurance Company

Poor eating habits, ever-increasing stress at work and a sedentary lifestyle are just some of the issues impacting our health. As per a study done in 2018 by Oman Insurance Company on its healthcare members, 62% of its then insured population were found to be overweight. According to several research reports, it is now understood that lifestyle choices are indeed responsible for many diseases such as diabetes, cancer, stroke, and heart attack, among others.

Many of these conditions are preventable with small changes in our daily routine but we all have barriers to overcome: “I don’t have time, I work late, I love burgers, I don’t have the energy to workout”, are just some of the excuses. A change was needed, so one of the UAE’s most experienced insurer stepped in to help people take charge.

LivFit was introduced as a comprehensive wellness programme designed to inspire customers and the community at large to overcome wellness obstacles and make lasting lifestyle changes. The one-of-its-kind initiative has helped Oman Insurance connect with their customers better and advise them on matters concerning health and well-being. The programme provides support in various areas such as physical activity, nutrition, weight loss, tobacco cessation and stress management. It is a comprehensive wellness programme that helps insured members make positive lifestyle choices to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.

Exclusively designed for Oman Insurance Company’s healthcare members, LivFit empowers them to take charge to live a healthier and happier life.
