About this Project:

Yoga Therapy for Pain relief for Care givers – Lok Sin Tong

Caregivers can influence the life of elderly in many ways, including the self-care ability, engage in social interaction, and maintain good mental and physical health.

Family Caregiver Alliance studies show that between 40 to 70% of caregivers have clinically significant symptoms of depression, with approximately one quarter to one half of these caregivers meeting the diagnostic criteria for major depression and about one in ten (11%) caregivers report that caregiving has caused their physical health to get worse.

Reducing the burden of caregivers through Yoga therapies can help them be healthy and in turn care for elderly better.

Caregiver is physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting. Practicing self-care through yoga and meditation can help relieve the stress and anxiety, improving flexibility, balance, pain relief, overall strength and well being.

A survey showed by Finances Online, the majority of respondents said that they agree or strongly agree that yoga had improved their physical health (88%) as well as mental health (86.2%). They also said that it had improved their stress levels (82.6%), their strength (87.1%), and flexibility (91.6%). Moreover, 69.3% of participants reported a change in lifestyle due to their yoga practice while 57.4% reported having better sleep.

Yoga releases feel-good endorphins into the body which facilitate a general sense of well-being, both beneficially to caregiver and elderly.

痛症治療瑜伽課程看護員 (樂善堂)

看護員可以通過多種方式影響老年人的生活,包括他們的自理能力、社交活動以及如何保持良好的身心健康。

家庭照顧者聯盟的研究指出,40% 到 70% 的照顧者有臨床上顯著的抑鬱症狀,其中大約四分之一到二分之一的照顧者診斷為重度抑鬱症。

隨著老年人的功能狀態下降,看護者的抑鬱和負擔相對增加。 研究亦指出大約有十分之一 (11%) 的看護員報告說,因為工作關係導致他們的身體健康狀況逐漸變差。

透過瑜伽療法可以減輕看護員的心理,幫助他們保持健康,進而更好地照顧老年人。看護員在身體上、精神上和情感上都很疲憊。 通過瑜伽和冥想練習能夠緩解壓力和焦慮,提高靈活性、平衡性、緩解疼痛、整體力量和幸福感。

Finances Online 的一項調查顯示,大多數受訪者表示他們同意或非常同意瑜伽改善了他們的身體健康 (88%) 和心理健康 (86.2%)。 他們還表示,它改善了他們的壓力水平 (82.6%)、力量 (87.1%) 和靈活性 (91.6%)。 此外,69.3% 的參與者報告說,由於他們的瑜伽練習,生活方式發生了變化,而 57.4% 的參與者報告說有更好的睡眠。

瑜伽會釋放讓人感覺良好的快樂荷爾蒙到身體中,從而促進整體的幸福感。 對照顧者和老人都有益處。
