Dolphintherapy for children
How to give your child bright emotions, help learn new skills and give impetus to development?
Who conducts the sessions
Dolphintherapist
Dolphintherapist is a certified specialist who has the right to work with special-needs children - a psychologist, a disability specialist, a correctional teacher, a rehabilitation specialist, etc.
In addition to working with a specific problem of the child, the dolphintherapist's duties include ensuring the safety of the child, both during game interaction with the dolphin on shore, and during contact with him in water.
Furthermore, the dolphintherapist makes sure that the child does not harm the dolphin.
Specially trained dolphins
Only specially trained dolphins participate in dolphin therapy sessions - these are dolphins that have all the necessary skills, are friendly and, most importantly, are completely healthy.
Dolphin trainer
A dolphin trainer is a marine mammal specialist who is the link between the dolphintherapist and the dolphin. The trainer is responsible for the dolphin's performance of the elements of play and exercise that are necessary for the dolphin to carry out the programme developed by the dolphintherapist. On the other hand, the trainer can make adjustments to this programme depending on what the dolphin needs at the particular moment
