Dolphin Therapy - what is it?

Dolphin Therapy is a kind of therapy for childen with some scientific confirmation for its effectiveness. Kids with mental or physical handicap will help this special kind of therapy with dolphins.

The dolphin therapy was developed from the psychologist and ethologist Dr. David E. Nathanson. He guided the in Key Largo, USA hosted first dolphin therapy station on earth. It was named "Dolphin Human Therapy". The base of this therapy concept is to boost the conservative therapies with making rewards to the children with interacting the kid with the dolphin. The little patients may interact with the dolphin, when they solved several exercises, from conservative therapies. He made several studies for this and confirmated the effectiveness.

Our therapist, Murat Kemaloglu, works with another concept. The dolphins are working as a medium to get better access to the childrens social interaction. This could be accomplished with the alpha ultrasound from the dolphins. He also works with belugas, which have a stronger kind of this alpha waves.

There are several projects all over the world, but we are anxious to work only with the best therapy stations to get the best quality for dolphins and childrens. We are looking for a good therapy station, which is attended by our specialists on this topic.

the trend dolphin-therapy

The dolphin therapy lies at present in the trend, there a strong social urge to holistic nature-connected life attitude with the goal of the balance of body and spirit, is observable. From the occupation with the animals, as well as more proximity to nature (nature therapy) one expects internal satisfaction and balance. As is the case for many other new therapy beginnings fishing rod it in addition, with the dolphin therapy at the scientific argument. Practice occupies positive changes in the neurological, physiological, social, emotional, linguistic and motor range of the patients, but scientifically successes were not verified yet. Thus it hardly surprises that physicians and health insurance companies of the dolphin refuse supported therapy (still) the acknowledgment. Contrary to conventional therapy forms those connects dolphin supported therapy several therapy beginnings (movement therapy, water therapy, family therapy and animal-supported therapy) with the medium dolphin.

the therapy concept

PROGRAM OF THE DOLPHIN THERAPY DOLPHIN-SWIM

Each day to the same hour the handicapped child swims with the dolphin. The person gets direct contact with the dolphin, strokes this, kisses him and the dolphin sings and lets the person swim. Thus a relationship between dolphin and the person, which arrange/for the concerning a luck feeling, develops; thus develops a feeling of joy and internal peace, which arise with no other activity. This therapy is implemented by Dr. Murat Kemaloglu in company of the dolphin coach as well as the sport teacher, experienced is in handling handicapped children. Halfhour swimming with the dolphins increases the interest of the child in the environment, so that it can pull more use from the interhuman relations. As result is with children, who continue physical therapy and language therapy received and their special training to determine an increase of the learning speed. After the dolphin therapy handicapped children learn the knowledge and the abilities in on the average two months, for which normally six to twelve months from emergencies are. The phase of accelerated learning stops six months up to one year. Thus the children when swimming do not freeze are necessary their own neoprene suit. We recommend to the families to already bring along these.

FAMILY THERAPY

For the development of the child the importance of the family is great. For this reason we offer therapy program(2 hours) for the families. Above all families with chronically patients have often large future concerns. If these concerns take, with the mother, over hand, then this can impair the development of the child. Therefore we inform the families of the handicapped children in form of a daily two-hour therapy in techniques, which are able to waive these concerns.

DOLPHINSHOW

We recommend to visit families and children for the duration of 10 days each day the dolphin show. When watching the relationship of the children with the dolphins and attention and interest of the children solidify themselves increase.
