Švábenická, Michaela ; Sládková, Petra (advisor) ; Klimošová, Sylva (referee)
BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT Name, surname: Michaela Švábenická Thesis supervisor: MUDr. Bc. Petra Sládková, Ph.D. Bachelor thesis title: Use of the Feldenkrais Method in the occupational therapy Abstract of the bachelor thesis: The Feldenkrais Method (FM) intervention uses body awareness and movement to induce a process of active learning aimed at achieving functional independence and a desired level of quality of life for the individual. The same is also the interest of occupational therapy, which focuses specifically on issues of self-sufficiency and the ability to participate in activities that are meaningful to the individual. FM has a wide range of applications, can be applied to people of different ages, with different types and stages of disability and can be described as a non-invasive method of neuromodulation. However, the use of FM by occupational therapists has not yet been recorded in the Czech Republic. The aim of this thesis is to investigate how FM can help patients from the perspective of occupational therapy and to describe it professionally through a review and suggestion of selected FM elements useful in occupational therapy and their application in a heterogeneous group of patients. This is a qualitative research based on the voluntary participation of four diagnostically different...

Lorencová, Marie ; Sládková, Petra (advisor) ; Svěcená, Kateřina (referee)
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the daily routine of everyone in the Czech Republic, even school-age children, whose daily rhythm has been completely changed due to school closures.

Many children returned to school fat and physically unfit after the government measures ended. For fat children, this change could have a negative impact on their health. The aim of this study was to obtain information on changes in eating and exercise habits of school-aged children before, during and after the lockdown. The information obtained from each period was compared and evaluated. Another aim was to determine whether the observed group of children had gained weight or not due to the changed daily routine during the covid restrictions, and for those who had gained weight, selected values from blood tests taken by a paediatric and adolescent general practitioner were monitored to see whether the values had moved outside the reference limits. By processing the questionnaire responses, I expect to confirm the three suppositions that children worsened their eating habits during the lockdown in both composition and frequency of...
