The OT Getaway

 

With Kaya Lyons and Lee Maitz

 

Combining our love of nature, passion for exploration and the simple joy of connecting with others, we have created The OT Getaway- a thoughtfully balanced weekend away for Occupational Therapists to connect, explore and restore.

Whether you are a sole therapist wanting to connect with other therapists, an explorer at heart needing to disconnect from the busy-ness of business or just in need of some time to reset and restore, we have carefully selected the location, accommodation, activities and rhythm to support each individual to get what they need from The OT Getaway.

We look forward to welcoming you to The OT Getaway and coming together as a community to share an incredible experience filled with fun, laughter, joy and heartfelt connection. In the meantime, you can check out our OT Getaway 2022 photo album here.
