Sustainability is important to us at Mediphysio and our partner Heimphysio. As part of our mission to promote health and well-being, we also feel a responsibility to do our bit for the environment. Therefore, we are pleased to announce that we have planted 750 trees this year to make both our practice in Vienna and our mobile physiotherapy service carbon neutral for the year 2024.
Together for the environment: your treatments make the difference
Your visits to Mediphysio and your bookings of home physiotherapy services have made this project possible. Every treatment you receive with us is not only a step towards better health, but also a valuable contribution to climate protection. We say thank you – without you, this initiative would not have been possible.
Why plant trees?
Trees are real all-rounders:
- They absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere and thus reduce climate change.
- They promote biodiversity by creating habitats for animals and plants.
- They protect soils and water resources.
With the 750 trees we planted this year, we are offsetting the entire CO₂ emissions caused by our company. We are therefore proud to be able to operate completely climate-neutral in 2024. Thanks to your support, we are working to achieve a sustainable balance between our daily work and our environmental impact.
Electrically mobile with Heimphysio
Another important step in our sustainability strategy is the use of electric vehicles for Heimphysio, our mobile physiotherapy service. Our entire vehicle fleet consists exclusively of electric cars that run on renewable energy. This means that when our therapists come to your home, they do so emission-free. Together with CO₂ compensation by planting trees, our home visits are not only practical, but also environmentally friendly.
Our partner for tree planting
To plant the trees, we work with experienced reforestation organizations that specialize in sustainable projects. These partners ensure that the trees are planted in regions that are in urgent need of reforestation, for example in areas affected by deforestation or climate change. We make sure that the trees are not only planted, but that they are cared for in the long term and can develop their full effect.
Why we are committed to climate neutrality
As a company that is committed to the well-being of its patients, we see it as our responsibility to also care for the well-being of our planet. Climate neutrality is not just a buzzword, but a central element of our corporate values. The health of our patients is directly linked to the health of our environment – clean air, a stable climate and healthy ecosystems are essential for a life worth living.
How you can become part of the movement
By continuing your treatments with us, you are automatically helping to support our sustainability initiatives. In addition, we encourage you to incorporate other eco-friendly steps into your everyday life. One way to do this is to use Ecosia, a search engine that invests its proceeds in global tree planting projects.
A big thank you to you!
This success belongs to all of us – you as patients, our team and the community that supports us. Thanks to your support, we were able to launch this initiative and achieve our goal of being carbon neutral by 2024. Together, we can not only improve people’s health, but also protect our planet. Here’s to a sustainable future – for us, for you and for our environment. 🌍
