Application of snoezelen as multisensory stimulation in children with heavy combined handicap
RICHTROVÁ, Lucie
Snoezelen is a therapeutic method based on complex involvement of senses. The target group is particularly formed by individuals with heavy combined handicap, within the whole age spectre from newborns to seniors. Snoezelen is provided in a specifically arranged room offering the individual pleasant environment and stimulating sensual impulses. A therapist has a function of a guide here; the individual him/herself defines how to spend the free time in the snoezelen. The aim of the thesis was to find the possibilities of snoezelen application in children with heavy combined handicap. The particular goal was to develop individual plans for exploitation of snoezelen focused on development of concentration of attention and communication abilities. The theoretical part thus includes specification of general conditions and principles of snoezelen application as a therapeutic method apart from definitions of the basic terms, detailed characteristics of snoezelen and a list of supportive methods. This knowledge was then applied to the theoretical part of the thesis. Case reports were used for verification of the theoretical outputs with regar to the target group characteristic and the individual specifics of therapeutic work. Combination of involved observation and document analysis was used for data collection. Three children with heavy combined handicap were chosen for the research sample. All the probands passed a three-month therapy in specific environment arranged according to snoezelen principles. The room met the conditions for development of attention concentration and communication abilities. However the children did not take use of the opportunity during two month of therapy. Only relaxation effect of snoezelen was seen in all of them, a shift in interaction with the environment, where the child actively influenced the snoezelen elements was found in one case. The results showed that the short time and low frequency of therapeutic sessions were probably the reasons of non fulfilment of the set goals with regard to the disability character and degree. The thesis may serve as informational material for persons or facilities interested in utilization of snoezelen and would like to use a multi-sensory room in practice.
