Dolphinotherapy – the research concerning using dolphins for the therapy of children suffering from mental or physical diseases has been started in 70's by American scientists and neuropsychiatrists from university in Miami.. This method involves children in playing with dolphins, small patients make specific physical exercises. Ultrasounds emitted by dolphins infiltrate human tissues during such play and cause some small but beneficial changes to destroyed cells. Dolphins are interested in everything what is different: like prosthesis, cancers. They emit ultrasounds into those changed body parts regenerating distroyed tissues.
During that play with dolphins more endorphins are secreted. Endorphins are natural substances produced by pituitary. They lessen a pain, hunger and make breathing easier. They also have the influence on body thermoregulation and secretion of the different hormones. The effect of this therapy is sensational. It has helped over 15 thousand children especially these, suffering from autism. Children who could not say a word, presently speak, ride and respond to real world. Small patients laugh to get to a centre of dolphinotherapy in the age of 7 months-6 year to make the therapy successful. There are only 3 similar centers in the world, in Ukraine and USA. It takes over one year to be admitted to them.

On the beginning our son developed correctly. When he was two years old he got appendicitis and was taken to a hospital on the operation in a serious condition. A few days later he started to move back in growth. Doctors recognized autism. I drowe with my son to the center of dolphinotheraphy in Kozacza Buchta in Ukraine. The therapists in there are huge dolphins. Kevin was delighted. He was catching Diana and swimming with her. He loved feeding her and splashing with the water. Effect of the therapy is really sensational. The child has stopped spinning around and running without the goal. He does not afraid of heigth anymore and started to walk on the stairs. He has much better concetration says Iwona Kawiorska, Kevin's mother
