Through heartfelt conversations, combined with cutting edge neuro-technology*, Voltaren is helping caregivers better understand the value they bring to a loved one’s life so they can begin to prioritize their own health and well-being.
An estimated 53 million family caregivers are in the United States. The work they do is invaluable.
Yet many don’t recognize the value they bring to others – seeing the role as something they “just” do.
Voltaren wants to show caregivers the positive effects that come from understanding one’s value, leading to a renewed journey of personal health.
In an intimate conversation, we explored how family caregivers perceive their own value and well-being — before and after hearing from the loved ones they care for. Once these caregivers heard from their loved ones about the value they provide, we saw up to a 36% increase in their overall well-being.*
The EEG headset, worn by the caregivers, measured well-being based on brain wave changes in levels of stress, relaxation, excitement, engagement, and attention.
*EEG used to indicate a change in well-being and analysis of brainwaves powered by EMOTIV. Results are not statistically significant due to a small sample.
Discover how these caregivers realized their true worth, unlocking a whole new journey of physical health, with the help of their loved one and cutting-edge neuro-technology.
