Dolphin Therapy – Good or Bad
You may be looking into Dolphin Therapy for your special needs child and there was a good article about this subject whether this is good or bad for your child. This article gives equal weight to both sides of the debate and worth reading. < Read More…>
We have had some experience with Island Dolphin Care from 1996 – 2000. My opinion is that I have seen positive results from the Dolphin Therapy programs that they offered. I have seen better body movements and improved speech abilities from special needs children that were attending the Island Dolphin Care program.
Finally, these special needs children do not get too many opportunities to have happiness in their lives. If they don’t get any immediate benefits from the dolphin therapy program but the child and their families get a lot happiness and joy for this week away from their daily lives, why not let them enjoy this opportunity. Life is short and if these parents can afford this experience with their special needs child and the dolphins, let them do it. As long as the dolphin programs does not claim any miracles to the child, then what harm is it?
What is your opinion about this subject?
God Bless,
