Caregiver Wellness Workshop

Caring for a loved one with physical disabilities is a profound act of love — but it also places unique physical and emotional demands on the caregiver. Our Caregiver Wellness Workshop is designed to empower caregivers with the tools they need to support both their loved ones and themselves for the long term.

In this workshop, participants will learn essential skills for safe and effective caregiving, including proper body mechanics for lifting and transferring, strategies for preventing injury, and ways to manage and minimize pain. We will also explore the critical role that strength training plays in maintaining a caregiver’s health and stamina over time, providing simple exercises that fit into busy schedules.

Additionally, the workshop addresses the often-overlooked emotional side of caregiving, helping participants overcome the fear of injury and build lasting confidence in their physical abilities. Through hands-on practice, supportive coaching, and practical wellness tips, caregivers will leave feeling stronger, safer, and more prepared to meet the daily challenges of caregiving.

This workshop is ideal for any caregiver seeking a proactive, holistic approach to their own wellness, while continuing to provide the best care for their loved ones.

Event is led by Kayla Lyman, CPT, CNC founder of Helix Fitness for Caregivers
