A minimum duration of 4 weeks is required for this internship program in Dolphin Assisted Therapy

Our usual clientele are mostly children but also adults with different kinds of diagnosis – mainly Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Paralyze hyper activity and other anomalous behavior. Along with our Dolphin Assisted Therapy sessions we offer physical therapy (special massage) on request and additional therapies for our clients to optimize therapy results.

Internships in our facility have the opportunity to support the therapy process active, administratively and organizationally. Our Interns daily participate in our therapy sessions with various clients and the dolphins to learn through our involved therapist and dolphin trainers how to handle our clients and the dolphins through a therapy session.
