Treatment in the Water with Dolphins

What you can expect…you will be enveloped in an awesome Dolphin atmosphere, and you will have valuable field experiences that provide you the opportunity to expand your personal skill set:

  • Learn the benefits of doing treatments in a gravity-free type-of environment;  The water gives you three-dimensional freedom.  You will be impressed with and discover ways to work with the energetics of the water and specifically the incredible forces of the ocean.
  • Learn how to be with and work with Dolphins in a therapeutic water environment.
  • Improve and refine your palpation skills.
  • Experience a group training, by a Primary Therapist, in the water without Dolphins.  You will take turns in your group  as one becomes the  “patient”, one becomes the “Primary Therapist” and the others are the Assistants.
  • Enjoy up to 4 hours per day for four days of therapy in the water with Dolphins.  You will take turns in your group  as one becomes the  “patient”, one becomes the “Primary Therapist” and the others are the Assistants.
  • Treat each other in your group in the water without Dolphins. (Unsupervised)
