When our patients emerge from therapy with heightened awareness and a stronger connection to their surroundings, they can learn more from human relationships. Therefore, patients adapt better to learning and development through other forms of therapy such as vocal therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and psychotherapy.

A personal bond of appreciation and admiration, completely free of prejudice, forms between the patient and the dolphin. This natural and pure relationship brings joy and peace. Experiments have shown that swimming with dolphins has a positive effect on patients with depression and that dolphin sound waves positively affect alpha waves in the human brain.

These marine mammals can sense the characteristic vibrations of the patient's organs through ultrasound. It has been proven that when ultrasound enters the spinal cord and brain, it stimulates the production of chemicals that enable the nervous system to function more efficiently. During this direct contact with dolphins, feelings of fear, stress, and tension decrease. The person feels positive energies begin to flow and is freed from negative emotions. After the level of physical and psychological disability is determined, a 10-day dolphin therapy session program is developed, taking individual differences into account.

Thanks to dolphin therapy, patients may suddenly begin doing things they have never done before. They may laugh for the first time, say their first words, or move without cramps for the first time in a long time. Patients' self-confidence, awareness, and perception increase, they can control their bodies better, and their learning processes improve. They feel like they are part of the world and work hard to succeed.

The opportunity to swim with these powerful and large animals that can paint, sing, play ball, spin hoops, do somersaults, and swim fast encourages the development of new skills and learning new things.

Swimming with dolphins increases joy and peace, strengthens the immune system, increases interest in the outside world, improves attention, increases awareness and self-confidence, and improves compassion and human relationships. After dolphin therapy, children with disabilities learn faster.
